Pros: modern cute cottage- true to photos or even better in person. Amazing outside shower! Comfortable bed. Kitchen has everything you need. Great communication. Didn’t meet hosts but they seemed very nice. Binder of helpful tips of the area. Location is good- in between Sooke and port renfrew (renfrew was a 15-20 minute drive) and close to beaches. Nice fire pit to use outside. Private location even though the main house is close.
Cons: faint to moderate mildew smell in common area and bathroom, futon bed is very uncomfortable, sheets smelled somewhat strong of detergent, bugs inside cottage (earwig in bed sheets and wood bugs on floor in common area). High cleaning fee. Guests have to strip the bedsheets to wash (the quilts and top blankets didn’t look like they are washed regularly) and guests have to take all of the garbage home. Expensive price.
Overall this was a good stay for us. I think the only thing that would stop me from booking again is the high price for this accommodation.
