Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently: "A little quirky with tons of atmosphere!"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
I have stayed at the JBI many times. A little quirky with tons of atmosphere! This hotel is part of the fabric of a Victorian city. The room was clean and comfy. Good bar; good restaurant and great location. It will always be my Victoria home.
