An absolutely fantastic place to stay. Easily one of the top Airbnb experiences we've had.
It can be hit and miss with basement units, because sometimes the noise from upstairs can be an issue. Here, we rarely heard anything. And when we did, it was never a problem, and never past 9 p.m. or so.
Check-in was super easy with the keypad. The space is very stylish, but also has all the amenities we need. Wifi worked great. Having separate kitchen and living room spaces was wonderful. The bed was very comfortable (and I usually *don't* like beds on vacation!) It was great to have access to plates and other kitchen items, which allowed us to eat in a few times.
The house is 15-20 minutes from downtown Victoria and from the Sidney ferry terminal. Very convenient. We didn't spend much time around the neighborhood, but it seemed like it would be a great area to explore.
If you're looking for an affordable, convenient, amenity-laden place to stay in Victoria, this is it.
