I stayed with Winnie for a wonderful week. Winnie did everything she could to make my stay extremely comfortable and I could easily come and go at will (I was here to visit relatives). The room is spacious and the bed very comfortable. It has lots of storage so I could unpack and use/find everything easily (including a big desk to work at). Winnie let me use her house as if I lived there. The breakfast Winnie shared with me down on the beach was amazing, just three houses down to Dallas road and the wonderful coast; walks, sea-lions, seals, and oyster catchers galore. My regret is that I was not able to take up all of Winnie's wonderful suggestions of other activities I could have done in Victoria. She is extremely knowledgeable about the area and things that visitors would find interesting to do. The condo is in an lovely, residential part of Victoria, within easy walking distance to downtown. Highly recommended if you like the ocean and being close to the city. Anya is a lovely cat with a very sweet disposition who loves to be petted. I hope I have an opportunity to stay again.
