Frommer's Review

One of the best deals going is found at the University of Victoria, when classes aren't in session and summer visitors are welcomed. All rooms have single or twin beds and basic furnishings; bathrooms, pay phones, and TV lounges are on every floor. Linens, towels, and soap are provided. The suites are an extremely good value -- each has four bedrooms, a kitchen, a living room, and 1 1/2 bathrooms. For C$5 (US$3.75/£2.25) extra per day, you can make use of the many on-campus athletic facilities. Each of the 28 buildings has a coin laundry. The disadvantage, of course, is that the U. Vic. campus is a painfully long way from everywhere -- the city center is about a half-hour drive away.

Facilities:
Indoor pool; access to athletic facilities; coin laundry; nonsmoking rooms
