A clean and functional unit. Fine for sleeping and having a quick meal and the bathroom is good. The host is communicative and helpful. The area is quiet most of the time.There do not appear to be any shops or restaurants nearby.

Nice location in Victoria

Very nice property in a very pleasant neighborhood. Both bedrooms were large and beds were very comfortable. Lots of light. Access was very easy. Lighting on the property (eg: walkway, driveway, night lights ) was excellent. Bathroom was great - shower had great water pressure and was very clean (the whole place was clean). Owner was very responsive. Just a couple of notes - there is no TV and no lounging area (kitchen only). We suggested to the owners that they get an iron and ironing board, and increase the variety of pots and pans - just to make cooking a little easier. You also have to contact the owners to control the heating. Relatively minor inconveniences. Would definitely return.

We loved the location and proximity to Uvic. The home and backyard were beautifully manicured and clean. The walkway was nice and wide. Quiet neighborhood and convenient location to get into the city and back with a car. I would recommend setting out a brand new sponge to wash dishes with and to upgrade some the hand towels. Overall, it met our needs and we would stay here again.

Good location

The property was clean, renovated. It was close to the University, the purpose of our trip to Victoria. The kitchen was basic, since we were staying one night and we only made breakfast the next morning.

Clean, functional, easy drive to shopping & tourist sites (Review #2)

A couple of days after we made our initial reservation, we decided to add an additional week. This required making a second reservation and, therefore, generated a request from VRBO for a second review. Our comments have already been posted under the title "Clean, functional, easy drive to shopping & tourist sites."

Clean, functional, easy drive to shopping & tourist sites

Nice suburban neighborhood, walking distance to beach access, bus stops and good coffee shop. Easy drive to Mt. Douglas Park with great hiking trails. Clean facility with comfortable beds and excellent shower, good washer and dryer. Kitchen supplies were limited – 1 pot, 1 pan, no mixing bowls. Instructions about recycling (i.e., what could be recycled and how the container system worked) and guidance for checkout would have been useful. Although space is limited, it would have been nice to have a larger dining room table and/or comfortable chairs to relax in at the end of the day.

My son and I stayed for a rowing weekend at Elk Lake. IT was a short 10 minute drive and very direct. The unit was quiet and very clean upon arrival. Owner was very responsive to our needs. The beds were comfortable and the in unit washer and dryer were a plus.

We had a great experience at the suite, it’s very big and Jane was always friendly and helpful. The suite is remodeled and everything works perfectly. It’s very nice and spacious. If I had had the heating control would be perfect.
