Trudy was very helpful in getting us settled in, including directing us to the nearest grocery store. This location is an easy walk to the beach, a great coffee shop and a little further down the street is Oak Bay. Oak Bay has a quaint shopping district with galleries and other independent shops. This location has an easy access to downtown Victoria. The accommodation itself is very spacious for two people. The kitchen is well equipped. There is a separate entrance to the suite that includes an outdoor sitting area. There you will find a couch and dinning table. If we had more time in Victoria we would have enjoyed lounging around the outdoor living space! Trudy and her husband live upstairs, but are very quiet. Although we didn't cross paths in the week we spent in their home, Trudy was very responsive to messages. It was a lovely location and great hosts! We would certainly stay here in the future!
