My family and I really enjoyed our stay over the holiday. The host was very kind and hospitable. Even added a personal touch of a tabletop Christmas Tree along with fruit, and chocolate as a welcome gift. The home is in a nice quiet neighborhood about 20min from downtown Victoria. With a shopping center right around the corner. The guest home was very clean and had all the amenities necessary for a short or long term stay. We were able to cook breakfast and dinner. The host was very accommodating and even supplied us with an extra oven pan. There is also a small washer and dryer in the unit. They supplied detergent and dryer softeners. We only used to clean the towels and face towels used during our stay as a gesture of appreciation. Our stay was warm and pleasant. Nice place for a small family of 4 or more to stay. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for an affordable place to stay in between downtown Victoria and Butchart Garden.
