Location, location, location… This was a perfect crash pad for me because I came on the Victoria clipper and was on foot for my five days in Victoria. The location on government street is an easy walk to The inner Harbor area with the empress, Victoria clipper dock, then on to the other stuff like Chinatown. Going the opposite direction on government street takes you to a fabulous seaside walk where you can see the cruise ship terminals. There is lots of places to eat and drink in the other two directions within blocks, Including a nice little neighborhood diner restaurant for breakfast next to the Beacon Hill Park(This park is also a fabulous walk with many peacocks, cricket pitch, Croquet, Lawnbowling, etc. etc. stuff to see)
This B&B is literally just an upstairs bedroom (with locking door and a private bathroom) to stay in with no common areas or places to hang out except for a small seating area on the front porch, but that worked well because I was out & about in Victoria all day.
I noticed that one of the other rooms has a balcony facing the street that would have been really nice, and the next time I go I would try to get that room instead of the one I had which had no view or balcony.
