Alex's location in Victoria is superb! It is well-within walking distance from all the main downtown attractions (I say this after travelling to Victoria and staying here with a 6-year old, without renting a car and walking most everywhere). The water taxis drop off and pick up right outside Alex's main entrance and is another great way to get around town! The unit is very quiet and makes for a comfortable night's sleep when you're ready to retire for the evening! The unit is spotless and towels soft and welcoming after a long day on your feet touring the amazing things this city has to offer! Having access to the kitchen allowed for meals to be prepared, rather than eating out all the time, which worked well for my son and I. I highly recommend Alex's place and will definitely be reaching out to him again for our next visit!
