I cannot say enough about this Airbnb treasure. It will be my new go to when I visit my daughter in Victoria. You are in the heart of downtown, and literally steps to all the best that downtown has to offer. The place is sparkling clean, (which is so important), and so beautifully furnished. Even the fixtures are high-end and stunning. It was cooler outside when I was there, but I still enjoyed some time on the lovely little balcony overlooking a busy street. As others have said, you're downtown, so you should expect a bit of noise. This didn't bother me in the least, and added to the city experience for me. In terms of security, I never felt unsafe at the apartment. The details to get in seem to be intimidating until you follow them, and then you realize that they all make sense, and are very straightforward, and contribute to a very secure building. Parking is equally secure, and right onsite. Once I parked, I just left my car there for my stay, but access is very easy for in/out and included in your stay (a HUGE bonus because it's in an area where you will have to secure street parking otherwise). Art's communication is detailed, clear, and very quick, and he is lovely to deal with. If I could give ten stars, I would!!! I hope to be back many many times.
