We were welcomed at the front door with a kind note from Valerie and Leonard made themselves available for any questions or concerns. They are two incredibly sweet, engaging people who also gave us absolute privacy and space. Their basement flat was ideal for two people, quiet, spacious yet cozy, and nicely set up with all one would need for a short or long visit. Though we were not there long enough to take advantage of the garden, it was a really nice aspect of the space. The neighborhood is rather close to downtown, and some local amenities such as a cafe and market just around the corner. Valerie and Leonard included wonderful informational books on Victoria as well as a detailed packet of personal recommendations for everything from favorite restaurants to finding a good cleaners or drugstore. I will definitely visit this comfortable space again!
