I can't speak highly enough about this Airbnb. Robert and his wife Donja have created a most special Airbnb. Having access to a full kitchen saved me hundreds of dollars while I searched for a job and a new home after moving back home from 30 years in the States. The Airbnb has its own private entrance and the kitchen is shared with one other renter. Washer and dryer, too! An active, creative family lives upstairs and the kids are great pianists who love musical theatre, so you will hear them singing and playing. Also wonderful to my ears was the sound of Snickers' precise little clickety-clack doggie footsteps in the kitchen in the morning. If that bothers you, just wear earplugs! Their home is in Saanich, with fabulous hikes, the Saanich Commonwealth Place pool, and Royal Oak Mall just minutes away.
