Mike's place is exactly as it appears in the photos. It is in a new building with great access to restaurants, cafes and places to see in Downtown Victoria. It faces away from the street and this makes it ideal for a quiet stay. Mike was great and timely when responding to messages and went as far as to arrange for the door code to be linked to my phone so I could let visitors in. This was a hot summer in Victoria and the building does not have air conditioning - not unusual for Victoria that doesn't commonly have a lot of heat. I kept the window open and I borrowed a fan from a friend. This took care of the issue. I highly recommend Mike's place. I had a great time while staying there.
