My family including my wife and 5 year old daughter stayed at Gilian's guest suite for 3 nights. We had the most comfortable and relaxing stay we could have asked for coming to Victoria for the first time.
Gilian is definitely "the" best host. The suite was in perfect condition for our family to enjoy our vacation. Everything was clean and we had everything we needed as a family for our stay, including cooking needs. We felt very welcomed by the way Gilian had interacted with us even though we could not meet her in person.
Also, Gilian had everything excellently documented regarding attractions and places to visit in Victoria. This helped us a lot in deciding for places to visit since it was our first time in Victoria.
From a location point of view, everything is nearby including grocery stores, transits, parks. Downtown is also nearby.
Last but not least, Gilian's has a very beautiful backyard garden which we loved spending time in. The backyard had so much greenery and is so beautifully maintained with an entrance and beautiful view to it from the suite. There are chairs and tables , a swing, to spend a lovely time over there.
I highly recommend Gilian's guest suite to anyone visiting Victoria.
