Girlfriend getaway
Loved staying here as we were close to everything. We didn’t use the car at all & having it secured in the parking garage was helpful. Miriam was a great host & responded promptly with our questions. Victoria was a great city to visit! To top if off we saw whales!

The condo is located it an ideal location next to shopping, multiple restaurants and cafes. We only needed our car to drive to Butchart Gardens. Otherwise we kept it in the garage and walked everywhere. The area around the unit felt safe, even when we walked home from dinner later in the evening there were people out and about. The unit was fully equipped with everything we needed - full kitchen utensils, spices, condiments, and enough dishes to last a couple meals. We stayed wjth six people: four adults and two kids, and had enough space to not feel like we were on top pf each other. It was a great space and we would definitely stay here again.

Ideal location for 4 seniors!
We were four women cousins all over 60 with some minor mobility issues. We were able to easily walk to the Inner Harbour and surrounding area. There were lots of good restaurants nearby and a grocery store just a few blocks away. The apartment itself was more carefully and extensively provisioned than any place we've stayed before (we travel together every few years)! And it was very clean, very comfortable, had lots of natural light. We could not have asked for anything more! Thank you Marian!

Perfect Location, lovely space equipped with all the right things!
A group of 6 of us stayed for a weekend for a birthday celebration. We were able to see so much of Victoria by foot right out the door of this place. We ate dinner in each night and the kitchen was equipped with all that we needed and more. It's a bright space with the ability to use blackout shades so we could sleep in! The check-in process to get into the building was a little challenging (with only 2 min) but once we had access all went splendidly! One suggestion would be more details for use of the google speaker.

Excellent downtown location
We enjoyed staying at this 3 bd condo. We can walk around the whole downtown Victoria. It was very clean and well equipped. The Dyson fans in each room helped in hot days. Underground parking space was easy to get into. Finally, Miriam, the property manager returns calls promptly.

Wonderful fully stocked comfortable high end apartment
We stayed for 5 nights in Miriam’s beautiful 2 bedroom plus a third bedroom, 2 full bathroom apartment, with a spacious balcony, located to walk the downtown. We walked to Murchies every morning for breakfast, and all over Victoria from her place. There’s nothing missing in the apartment. It’s fully stocked. Beds are extremely comfortable. We’d rent here again.

Oasis
The apartment was well furnished and had all the amenities we needed, including a well-functioning washer and dryer set. The unit is not air conditioned but Dyson fans in each room and a door opened to the spacious and well appointed balcony kept air flowing and the rooms very comfortable. An in-building designated parking space is a huge benefit. Check in was a bit bumpy but ultimately resolved. Security is extremely high in the building. The location is ideal for walking to downtown venues. There was an add-on fee above the stated amount for more than two renters. Would we stay again? Definitely.

Miriam was a terrific host. Gave good directions. Condo was the best stocked vrbo I have been in. Location is close within walking to the bay and shopping. The only thing to inquire about is how to get out without a fob.

Family Adventure
The services provided by our host were outstanding. There was plenty of communication and support if needed. Getting in can be a bit trick, but the building is extremely safe. The accommodations were perfect for my wife and 2 adult children with a private parking spot. The building is located in a position that you can walk to almost everything. Only issue was the homeless and drug use, but sadly you will find that everywhere these days. Just need to be wise and alert. If you are like us and prefer late evenings Victoria isn't like that. Most places don't seem to open until 9:00 a.m. and close between 8:00 & 10:00 p.m., so plan your evenings meals in advance. We would definitely stay here again and we recommend to others. Ruben C

Spacious clean condo in the heart of downtown
Convenient central location and efficient use of space to have 3 bedrooms. We had a comfortable stay with 2 kids, 2 parents and 2 grandparents. Clean and well-appointed unit. Initial check in took a bit to connect with the condo manager but once we were connected things were smooth and she went out of her way to be accommodating.

Probably the cleanest and most well stocked condo we have ever stayed in. The host, Miriam, was very accommodating to our particular circumstances. The cafe downstairs, Fol Epi, has great coffee and a delicious weekend brunch! Walkable to everywhere you might want to go downtown and along the waterfront. Although the condo has 2 bedrooms with queen beds and a den with a double bed, there is a $30 surcharge per night on any more than 2 people, which seems unreasonable.
