Nicolaus's apartment is a downtown oasis. I stayed two weeks and could not have had a better experience. Everything was exactly as described and even better in person. It's a sunny, very clean modern space with a great view of the water. The Murphy bed is very easy to manage (you can pull it down and put it back with one hand), and quite comfortable; the kitchen is well equipped and appliances are top notch; there is a washer and dryer in the unit. The bathroom is super clean with a great shower. The rooftop deck for the building (don't skip it) also has a tremendous view. The apartment is in a perfect location downtown to walk to all major attractions, restaurants, pubs, museums, etc. There is an excellent espresso coffeehouse attached to the building as well as a restaurant. Bus stops for major lines are only a block or so away. I frequently went up to UVic during my stay and found it a very easy commute by bus and a great space to come back to after the activities of the day. Nicolaus is an absolutely wonderful host; we met at check in and he made sure I knew how everything worked and was available via the app to answer questions if anything came up. I loved it, really enjoyed meeting Nicolaus, and would definitely book again.
