Pros:

Dirty room, no staff and no clear way to get a hold of anyone to clean it. The balcony had no view. The room we ended up getting was not the one in the pictures when I booked the room.

Pros:

Really great apartment, central location. Was a bit noisy late at night but that didn’t bother us. Entry system fine once you work it out! Big light and airy space. Well resourced and stocked. Lovely rooftop terrace. Could do with a little bit of TLC: tap and plug a bit loose in bathroom, sofabed bedding was a littler worn, not all the outlets worked and the kitchen tap needs a new washer but generally it was a really great stay and we’d happily stay again!

Pros:

This was clean and tidy with a decent kitchen. The furniture was not comfortable for lounging, but the bed was. Some city noise at night but nothing we couldn’t sleep through.

Pros:

I received a full refund my for stay through expedia. On check in our unit was not clean and it seemed as though someone had access to the unit based on the disarray in the room. The property did not return any of my calls, messages or text when we checked in. We ended up finding another place to stay.

Pros:

Some of lights don't work. The light in the hall flickers like in a slasher movie. The comforter and bedding is down and it is summer. We about sweat to death. Large scratches on door. Closet doesn't shut. Divider panels are broken. Not a bad experience. More of a "meh" experience.

Pros:

What was great: 1. unique and interesting decor (we stayed in an Asian-inspired room with educational facts about the contribution of Chinese settlers to Victoria-fantastic), 2. fairly well-appointed supplies, 3. full kitchen with microwave, dishwasher, fridge and stove, 4. laundry facilities right in the bedroom was handy, 5. Immediate and courteous response from management when issues arose (we had a bit of trouble with the door code which was fixed right away). What could be improved: 1. only available A/C was a unit in bedroom & we were there during an unseasonably warm spell, so it was quite hot in the living area & kitchen. 2. We ran out of toilet paper during our stay and contacted management, who assured us it would be replenished; several hours later, still nothing so we had to ask again. Not a big deal but an avoidable inconvenience. Overall, a good budget option but not sure we'd return, to be honest.

Pros:

Cute! Would definitely stay here again. As a single woman, it did feel a little sketchy walking down the alley alone at certain times of day given the surrounding area. But felt safe overall.

Pros:

Worked well for my plan staying in Victoria. We did not rent a car but walked everywhere.

Only slight issue was that the AC did not work as well as hoped.
