GREAT place and great hosts! Especially:

- Warm welcome, including a bowl of fruit and treats

- Terrific location: close to everything I wanted to visit in metro Victoria, pretty setting right by (couple hundred feet at most) The Gorge waterway, in a mature residential area that was quiet, safe & comfortable. Note especially: only 22 miles to Sooke, maybe 3 miles to Langford "big box shopping", local grocery a fraction of a kilometer away, church 1/2 km away, downtown center of Victoria harbor front about 3 or 4 km.

- Fully equipped: Everything I needed was right there in the suite, and everything worked and was high quality

- VERY relaxing and comfortable interior and decorating - looked forward to coming "home" every night I was there

- Cupboards and refrigerator stocked with all the small but important stuff that you can't bring from home: condiments, paper towels, pots and pans, spatulas, coffeemaker with coffee filters, local attractions info, TONS of fresh towels, and even milk, water, shampoo, 2 nightlights (so you don't stumble around in an unfamiliar home) - really EVERYTHING you need

- Super clean

- Comfortable bed and layered covers to adjust "just right" to each night's temperature!

- Both Susan and Steve were fountains of information

- Susan and Steve were also perfect hosts - there whenever you needed them or asked for their help, but never intrusive of your privacy and desire for regen time

If I come back to Victoria, this is for certain where I'll come to stay!
