Unfortunately, our bikes got stolen even though they were locked up onto the bike carrier right outside our window. Besides that there is no parking in the building so you have to go back and forth between parking lots and try to find the open spot on the road ...when the parking is free at 6 pm and you have to leave the lot. This area is a "homeless people" area ...there is a "Homeless Refuge" building right on the corner of Swift St. and Store St. There is a "used dirty needle disposal box" on the other corner. Besides that it was a nice stay. I don't want to be over negative. The hosts are great and there are a lot of things to do and see in Victoria.
