If you're interested in renting bikes to experience Victoria and the area, this place is for you. We preferred Cycle BC over Trek rentals though farther. Our favorite ride was on car-free Galloping Goose trail out to The Horticultural Center of the Pacific and back on the Lochside trail. It's smaller and casual, but we liked it as much as Butchart Gardens. You must eat at their simply spectacular lunch restaurant, Charlotte and the Quail.
If you're light sleepers, bring earplugs as there are sweet albeit active children that live above the bedroom. Otherwise, the place was perfect for us and a good value.
