Kyle is a great host -- friendly, helpful, accommodating, and just generally a really nice guy. This location is perfect for anyone visiting UVic or Camosun College; it's as close to the University as you can possibly get. The room is bright and airy, with a ceiling fan that keeps it cool even on warm nights. Very clean, with a cute little kitchenette complete with fridge and kettle (no stove/oven) that is well-stocked (coffee, tea, sugar, cutlery, etc.). Admittedly, the shower is small, but still good by hostel standards. A nice quiet neighborhood, and great value.
