If you're going to visit Victoria and want the best possible experience, infinitely better than ANY hotel, stay at Deborah's house. It's the closest thing to bringing your own house with you as possible. The entire downtown area is within walking distance, there's a grocery store within walking distance, a liquor store, a wine store, 10 coffee shops...it's perfect. Everything was exactly as described and we had ZERO issues of any kind. If i come back to Victoria, i'm definitely staying at Deborah's.
