Girls trip!
Excellent location and very well appointed. Loved the small terrace. Enjoyed being able to walk to great coffee and breakfast shops. So many good eating establishments within easy walking distance. We had planned outings for each day and were always able to walk to meeting place - Buchart Gsrdens, whale watching, food tour and high tea. Highly recommend.

A great stay, but unhappy with $155 cleaning fee plus chore list
This is a great quiet little condo, in walking distance shopping, waterfront, etc. Overall clean unit, but the clothes washer has mold on the rubber gasket. It needs attention. The chores list included taking out garbage, recycling, and compost and starting a load of laundry on departure in addition to things I would normally expect (cleaning coffee maker filter and starting dishwasher--thats pretty standard stuff at other units I have stayed at). I would have appreciated being offered a discounted cleaning fee if you are expecting me to add laundry and garbage removal.

Great stay
I was met at check in, given an orientation of the building and general overview of shops and markets in the neighbourhood. Heather and Tim were very helpful, if I needed anything they were very accommodating. The location was very suitable, I was able to walk most of the places I wanted to see. I nightly recommend it..

Comfort Plus
The unit and the whole building is extremely clean and well maintained. Well stocked unit. Beds are very comfortable. Even though we are right downtown the unit itself is very quiet. Speaking of downtown the unit is in a perfect location to all amenities. Deirdre, our welcoming guide, was very accommodating. She checked in with us on a regular basis and even asked if all was well during the Covid-19 quarantine. We could not ask for a better receptionist. Thank you. Even though we had to return home early due to the virus issues we left with positive memories of our experience. We would not hesitate to return.
