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.

Disappointed

Bed was like they threw a fitted sheet over a box spring. Shower barely had enough pressure to wash yourself off. Floors would turn your feet black. And 2/3rds of the outlets for whatever reason would only work on one plug so you’d have to choose lighting or charging your devices. I get that you don’t spend much time in there, and the location is great, but for almost $300 a night it’s kinda ridiculous. Also the pictures show a pool which they don’t have. We were in room 14 FYI.

No pool, No sleep, No coffee, but they’ve got kids

THE WORST! The bed was a joke. I had springs in my back all night and my husband couldn’t move without springs popping. The board under the mattress did nothing except make us wonder what we were paying for. The floor was so dirty we had to wash our feet before we put in our shoes. The shower floor and bath mat turned black from the dirt. There was a coffee pot, but no coffee. No front desk help to ask about cart rental. They closed and locked the office door the second we checked in and never opened it again. That of course was after we waited 10 mins for them to show up and check us in. THERE IS NO POOL! The picture of the pool is a joke. They do not have one. They claim to be adult only, but there are kids there. One little girl sat on the deck getting her hair braided while a little boy jumped on the bed behind her. Worst stay ever!
