Great location for busing every where in the city. Oak Bay shops a nice 20 minute walk. Space for bicycle parking and access to cycling lanes a few meters away from place. Cosy space. Quiet spot yet so convenient to 5 super speedy bus routes. It was stocked for whatever you need to make all simple meals. Also had 3 grocery stores 10,15 and 20 minute within delightful walking. Also two chef shops to get great daily fresh made meals. The round kitchen table is inviting and accommodates visitors over for meals or tea. Thoughtful touches throughout the place. The high loft bed worked really well for me and was very comfortable-might be a bit awkward getting up and in if two are sleeping up there. Not sure how sofa/ sofa bed would work out for second person to sit on or sleep on. Heating system worked very well during very cold week of weather, except in the washroom. Great place for suitcase to open and leave opem on the trunk just inside the door. It is out of the way, high enough yet accessible.All hotel rooms should have such a perfect place to have suitcase on! And a lovely blanket to put over open suitcase when not rummaging through it. Ample storage space and place to hang all clothing and store extra suitcases out of way. The place accommodates area to exercise in and furniture moves easily to accommodate personal needs for the day. The little outside area would be fun to use as it is private and set up for use as seating area.(It was zero temperatures and snowy so not actually used this time. )Hostess very helpful and super prompt in responding and gave helpful tips getting around the city etc. Would book there again if it is free.
