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."

If you want to be close to UVic to visit friends this is the perfect stay. It is very clean, with two bedrooms and comfortable beds, plus the communication with the host was great! 100% would recommend!

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.

Short Stay

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.

Jane is a great host

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.
