Great and affordable basement apartment on a nice residential block short walking distance to several bus lines and cafes. By nature of being a basement apartment, it's not the quietest. Pipes for the house are on the ceiling in the bedroom, so you hear the plumbing, and host has kids. Was not at all a problem by 9pm. Fancy organic body wash and shampoo provided, but no conditioner or lotion, and the bathroom lacks a fan so you should probably leave the door open when possible. Kitchen has lots of cooking amenities and a full size fridge, compost bin, but no microwave. Outdoor courtyard seating is lovely. Location is super close to the Victoria Art Gallery, which has a really nice collection.
