Days Inn by Wyndham Victoria On The Harbour
"Great little hotel! It is an old building but that adds to the charm. The room was clean and comfortable (although the shower head was VERY low for a 5'10" person) The bed was super comfy. Love the water bottle station in the lobby. Careful on the elevator, it is a hard stop!"
