This modern, tastefully decorated space is wonderfully located in the heart of downtown Victoria. Step outside the apartment, and you are within easy walking distance to many restaurants, cafes, popular stores and independent boutiques. Inside, the apartment is cozy with plenty of space for an individual or couple to unpack and 'move in.' For me, the temperature was comfortable (in November), and I cracked the patio door for instant fresh air at bedtime; the warm bathroom tiles were inviting on chilly mornings; and the mattress was just right. If you are noise sensitive, you'll notice the inevitable elevator/ventilation/human noises of staying in a downtown city building. I slept just fine without earplugs, though. Next time I want a Victoria getaway, I'll check the availability at Ira & Agata's apartment before looking elsewhere. IMO, it's the perfect getaway!
