HINT: Don't hide the plug for the bathtub up that high (one can't find it until they're laying down in the tub and looking up) ... by then it's too late) and the bars of soap are too tiny.

Royal Scot Hotel & Suites
Rooms were clean and with many amenities but are quite dated. Was unpleasantly surprised that I had to pay for parking at the hotel, $23.10 a day! That was a first for me. Good location within walking distance of many of the sites in Victoria.
