Tracy's place is a short drive from the ferry and is really comfortable. It was great for our shortish stay but would be superb for longer ones to really explore the area.
Neighbourhood: This is a lovely neighbourhood with a lot of trees and up the road a large native park. You do need to have a car (or bike for those much fitter than me!). It is a drive away from Victoria itself but the roads are easy to navigate and the traffic not insane, as in larger cities. Butchart Gardens is not too distant and the Insectorium/Butterfly House is close by, and well worth a visit.
The space: Is larger than it appears in the photos and I was pleasantly surprised. The kitchen is full size and the lounge area comfortable for the three of us. We could each have our own chair and spread out with our books and electronics (great internet speeds). We cooked most nights and had ample utensils and cleaning equipment. The bathroom has everything as expected and some nice organic products - The hair shampoo is fantastic, I wish I'd asked where the supplier was from!
Similar to most of the places we have stayed in, this one also has stairs to the unit and a step into bath/shower, Tracy made sure we knew of this and were ok before we arrived (great supporting information). For us it was not an issue but it could be if you are mobility impaired.
The bedrooms: There are two. One set up with two single beds, and the other a queen. All the beds were very comfortable and again we had space to move around. There are screens on the windows so they can be opened without fear of insects getting in.
The hostess: Tracy was wonderful, met us at the door and showed us around. She left us with some fresh eggs, milk, coffee and jam and the knowledge that if we needed anything to just ask. She was very kind and we enjoyed her hospitality. Communication was easy though the AirBnB app.
