We really enjoyed our stay in this apartment. It’s very bright and gets a lot of sun for the vast majority of the day. The building itself is clean, quiet and felt quite secure. It is centrally located and is within walking distance of many of Victoria’s landmarks, including The Empress, Chinatown and the Royal BC Museum. We were not at a loss for finding places to eat and would recommend Willie’s Cafe on Johnson, 10 Acres Bistro and The Bard and Banker.
The unit itself is very clean, well equipped and the bedding and beds were very comfortable. We really enjoyed spending time watching all the activity going on in the harbour. Between sea planes, harbour taxis, and the occasional raising of the Johnson Street Bridge, there was always something happening. If you become as enamoured by the harbour taxis as we were, they have a water ballet performance every Sunday morning. We appreciated that quirkiness.
Communication between ourselves and the host were excellent.
I would have given this apartment a 4.5 out of 5 stars and rated it very good if Airbnb had those options. I would certainly return.
