We travelled with our 3 young adult children to Victoria for a 2 day/1 night business trip and we wanted to be in one unit. It's difficult to find hotels with 2 washrooms AND 2 bedrooms, let alone 4 separate beds, but that's exactly what we got!
I'd initially requested another of Lorie's units in the same complex, but Lorie apologetically notified me that it was booked. But within hours, she emailed me to say she'd had a last-minute cancellation on a different unit and gave me a good price for it.
She patiently answered my many questions and promptly replied to numerous emails and we booked the unit. We arrived hours before the 4pm check-in, but were warmly greeted at the front desk and informed that the room had yet to be cleaned. They took my name, gave me a parking permit, and said as soon as the room was cleaned, they would phone me, which they did, at 2pm.
The condo was as per the photos--lovely, clean, nicely appointed, and a pretty view of the boats and water. There are two balconies with outdoor furniture. Both bathrooms were good sizes. The bedrooms were lovely and it was so nice to have, as I said, a master bedroom and a second one with two beds. And then there was a nice Murphy's bed in the living room, which was easy and effortless to set up and put away.
The kitchen looked to be pretty well-stocked. We only used the oven to heat up some pastries for breakfast, but there were lots of glasses and plates. The dining room table was a comfortable size for the five of us.
Our kids couldn't quite get the WiFi initially, but after a quick call to the front desk and some clarifications, all was well. Front desk also gave us vouchers for four free movies, but due to time limitations, we weren't able to use them. There's a lovely exercise room in a glass-walled separate building that is, essentially, in the courtyard of one side of the complex--we admired it, but again, we had no time to take advantage of it.
It was a quiet development and in a pretty area--very walkable and lovely with the waterfront. Within easy walking distance to Legislative Buildings and downtown. Lots of free parking in the parkade.
We enjoyed our stay in your unit, Lorie, and are most grateful that you told us about the last-minute availability for this unit. The second bathroom was a godsend! Thank you for sharing your condo with us, and for your prompt and efficient emails.
Warmly,
Christina, Michael, Justine, Graham and Andrea
