The Victory provided a clean room and en suite . The room was very small, only 2 small shelves for storage, 2 coat hangers and a small double bed that filled the room providing very little space to squeeze past the bed. En suite 30cm x 12cm shelf, no other place to put toiletries etc but good shower and washbasin. No one around for breakfast at 9:00am so went out to find something to eat. Really lovely staff member helped when we were checking out. The room had been refurbished but bed too small ( we are slim people aged 78 & 79). I did note that one other room was larger with wardrobe .... we had to buy coathangers.. ouch!

We had room 4 which was very comfortable. It’s advertised as a King room so we expected a king sized bed which it didn’t have. We didn’t eat in the hotel restaurant this time but we have on previous occasions and it was always very good.
