Excellent stay!

Spacious, clean rental. All you need for a short, or long term stay. Reasonable walking, or short driving distance to all amenities. Convenient to both Highways 1 and 14. A bit of noise from upper home, but that was described in the listing. One suggestion to the owners is to have the room pre-heated before guests arrive. The floor stayed cold for a couple of hours. I would gladly recommend this property.

Cozy place to stay

It was cozier than I had expected, but overall a nice little place. It was awesome having our own laundry room! The house is right behind the fire hall, so when you step outside it is quite a loud area. Location is convenient though.

Langford Stay

Property was good, lots of room for two people. Bathroom was large with a good sized shower with body wash and hair products provided. Kitchen was pretty well stocked, including some condiments. Main area and bedroom were a good size, and the bed was comfortable. The wash and dryer were great with pods provided. Would stay again.

Cozy spot that is easy to get to the highway and close to stores. City is growing and more shops are opening. I would stay here again. General comment about the city - not a lot of street lighting. I couldn't see the address since I arrived late so I pulled up the ad to check rather than get out of the car.

A little piece of heaven!

The location was perfect. The suite had everything for our stay and more. Washer and dryer much appreciated, especially for longer stay. Des had all the touches, outside table and chairs, umbrella which we used. One of the best stays for us and we have used bnb’s for over 35 years. Quick access to highway for us to visit grandson in Victoria, Parks, Costco, Superstore, all other shopping convenient, restaurants - again great location. Lower lever unit no noise from above. Thank you for sharing you home with us! Definitely stay here again .. large beautiful unit well utilized.Cheers!

Disliked: Listing accuracy

It was pretty good, but the description was inaccurate.

Everything was pretty good except one crucial detail. One of the most important reasons I rented this particular property was the fact that the posting said there were 3 beds: queen and sleeper couch in the bedroom and another sleeper couch in the living room. However, when we got there I have discovered that there was only a queen bed in the bedroom, no second bed. Other than that, everything was very good, if 2 beds is what you need I highly recommend this place.

great place!

Nice property in a great location. Close to Save On Foods, Costco, Timmy's etc. The couch converts into a double bed which is great for kids and is actually really comfy! Good access to get anywhere you need to go. House is located in a quiet cul-de-sac. Owner responded to my texts right away. We'd definitely stay here again!

Nice place a short drive from everything we wanted to see

We arrived on the last ferry from Washington so late at night, but no problem because of the easy check-in with a door code. We didn't spend much time in the suite and didn't cook there, but it looked to have everything we would have needed. We picked it because of the reasonable price and the location close to a main highway and to the Butchart Gardens and downtown Victoria, and the location in a residential suburb was great for that. The home had a good supply of information and maps about the local and provincial area that was helpful to us. We enjoyed our stay in Desmond's home!
