We LOVED our stay at Trish's house. Her beautiful, spotless place is located in James Bay, a couple blocks' walk from Dallas Road (gorgeous ocean views, Ogden Point) and only a 10 minute stroll to the Inner Harbour (Legislature, Empress, all the downtown Victoria fun).

My family is currently in the process of renovating our home, so we were primarily concerned with finding a place to accommodate all four of us comfortably (along with our dog, Jessie). Trish's house fit the bill perfectly. There was ample space for all of us, a kitchen with all the amenities and appliances we needed to make every meal of the day, an impeccably clean bathroom, a convenient washer/dryer in the basement, and an incredibly comfy living space.

The place is spotless and very tastefully decorated. James Bay is definitely a safe neighbourhood, and there's a lot of history there - we enjoyed walking around the neighbourhood immensely. You're only two blocks away from a variety of coffee shops and a great grocery store (the original Thrifty's in Victoria, I believe).

While I never met Trish, her instructions for arrival were straightforward and easy to follow. Any questions I had she promptly answered. She called us after we arrived (through the landline set up at the house - a fabulous feature if you're coming in from out of town and don't have a phone plan) to make sure we were settling in okay, and I always knew she was a quick phone call or text away.

Considering what you might pay for a hotel room a few blocks away, Trish's house is a fabulous value. 100% recommended!
