We have adjusted our review accordingly. Original review...

We stayed at the Sandman Hotel Victoria for the Victoria Gorge Dragon Boat Festival, and it was the perfect location!

Check-in was smooth and quick—special thanks to Ore at the front desk, who was absolutely lovely! Every staff member we enc...

The staff was incredibly personable and professional. The loading area outside of th...
