Clean, modern and centrally located condo with a 5-star view of The Empress and the harbor. We had an amazing view of the Canada Day fireworks show from the comfort of the balcony. You can walk to anything downtown from here. We used the pool and hot tub in the building, which were just fine. Kitchen has the all the basics. We had most meals out, but our two favorite spots were Heron Rock and 10 Acres Bistro.
Not criticisms, but just heads up for future guests: the blinds in the bedrooms let in lots of light, so if you are sensitive to that in the mornings (like we are), bring sleeping eye masks. As another reviewer mentioned, there is some street noise at night (sirens, etc) - which is to be expected in a downtown condo. Also, as of July 2022 there’s no Uber or Lyft in Victoria yet - that was a surprise to us because we were planning to use them to get to some of the further out places to see. Seemed like there were a fair amount of traditional taxi cabs around. The water taxis in the harbor were awesome!
Overall 4+ stars, only because we are stingy with 5 star reviews and save them for the hosts that really go the extra mile with personal touches. But this is a recommended spot for downtown Victoria!
