Hotel was convenient and clean. For tall people the showers are A+ with the shower head extra high. Same owners as the Commodore which is where the pool pictures are from. This is deceiving if you don't know. We knew.

Not a bad little place to stay. We weren’t there a lot. We were out and about in town. So it was perfect for what we used it for. Very close to downtown but quiet enough to sleep. We’ll be back.

We had a great stay at Victory Station. The hotel is clean, nice, and super convenient to downtown. Our only hangup were some noisy neighbors on the last night that kept us up til 5AM. Totally understand that's just the odds you play at hotels in party towns. Still, since there's no overnight staff on site, we were a little bit powerless in that situation. Overall, we'd stay again and recommend.

Very dirty. Blood on counter, lamp. Dead bedbugs under bed. Mayflies in room. Dust on counters. Bed was the most uncomfortable bed we have stayed in. Actually hurt my wife's back. Very tiny and with the furniture and our bags, very little room to move around. No one was available onsite to help us check in. I had to call a number to check into the property as the person who was on site left for the day (5:30 PM) Only good things were it was quiet and convenient.

Location of the property is good. Pool is few blocks away, not good. Parking facility is bad. All of the parking area is blocked by the golf carts, which is other business of them. Luckily staff help me to get one parking spot available. Better to call them and ensure parking availablity before arrival.
