We enjoyed our stay at the Secret Garden property. The place was extremely clean and the host responded immediately to all of my questions. There were 2 of us and we were very comfortable, nice bed and living area. Host has all the basics in the bathroom and kitchen making it easy for guests to enjoy the space. The family lives upstairs and we could hear some noise, but it was during the day only. Night was extremely quiet.
It is a bit far from downtown Victoria, not walking distance. We took Bluebird taxi service to get back and forth which was fine for us. We did not try the bus but there are very nearby stops. You can take a beautiful stroll along the gorge to get coffee in the morning, very pleasant. Overall this is a great spot for a couple or small family, highly recommend!
