Great place to stay outside of downtown Victoria and a great value compared to downtown hotels, especially if you have a family or larger group. Location has great bus service. We mainly used the number 2 bus to get down town and the 2A to get to the beach park. If you buy a bus day pass for the adults at the drug store (which is just two blocks away from here) then kids ride free. Location is also walking distance to the castle and about 20 minutes walk to the water. Really nice neighborhood with lots of interesting heritage houses. Groceries, pub (with vegetarian options) and even a gluten free bakery 1 block away. Apartment is huge with everything you could possibly need. It will get warm in the apartment if you get lucky and get hot weather as this apartment is built into the attic space. There are fans in the bedroom closet. Great stay overall!
