Great location in downtown Victoria, steps from the ocean. We had stayed in the area before and knew what we were getting into. The hosts were fast to respond, kind, and offered us several solutions to park my bike when the tenant before dropped the main set of keys down the elevator shaft.
Note on noise: the unit backs into a courtyard that has dumpsters for several businesses (including mec). The trucks arrive to empty dumpsters extremely early and the sounds are... Terrifying if you have the windows open. Thankfully the windows are thick and dampen the sound well.
The kitchen is nice and there were ice cubes ready made for our arrival (nice touch).
Maybe I am picky, but the bed was like laying directly on the springs and the bedding was some poly blend that just didn't breathe. Hopefully they find a way to update the mattress - would consider staying again for how convenient the location was.
