We had a wonderful stay at Rob & Jen's in Victoria! THANK YOU.
Location, location, location! Between Phillips' Brewery, cool shops, delicious restaurants, harbour walks, Canada's oldest Chinatown, etc. It was a wonderful 4 days.
(If you have a car, check out Malahat Skywalk 45 min north, Unsworth Winery, Cowichan Lake, Deep Cove Chalet restaurant North Saanich 30 min drive.)
During our visit Aug 15th to 19th it was (I think unusually?) hot, in the 25C to 30C+ range. There is one fan, but if climate change continues to worsen and Victoria keeps being this warm, 2 fans are definitely needed, one for living space and one for the bedroom which does not have a window. The fan may already be provided now...we reached out to R&J and it was a late request on our last night, no one was available to come down HOWEVER they offered to reimburse us with a fan that we purchased. So very very nice!!! We unfortunately couldn't find a fan in our area, but that was a very nice offer.
All communication was amazing!
As a previous renter noted: the seagulls. The seagulls are loud if the windows are open. Close to the ocean, so to be expected of course! But was a little unexpected in the middle of the night at 3am... if you are a light sleeper and will be on the pullout couch near open windows, bring ear plugs. Problem solved.
This is a really great Airbnb, actually felt bigger than how photos showed.
Thank you Rob & Jen!!!
