A nice clean quiet suite, within close walking distance of a few shops.We loved listening to and watching birds via the big windows in the living room!

Thank you for the lovely review! It makes me so happy to hear all the little highlights cherished by each guest. I love this one about the birds. We did have some pretty active woodpeckers when you were here.
Please visit us again on your next visit to Victoria.
Warmest Regards.
Great stay for me and my wife! Perfect little spot, the location was very private and quiet. Clean and comfortable, and very well stocked with all the essentials. A rental vehicle made it very easy to get around. 10 minute drive to UVic, 15 minutes to downtown/harbour. Enjoyed our stay, would recommend.
Colleen went out of her way to ensure we had everything we needed, and had some great suggestions for local places to eat/watch the game. The garden suite was immaculately clean, very comfortable, and the modern kitchen had everything we needed.
Thank you for the 8-out-of-10 review. To confirm, is the score reflective of the noise from the renovations that were taking place on one of the neighbouring homes?

This little suite was perfection. The kitchen was stocked incredibly well. The bedroom and large walk in closet made it so easy to put away our clothes. The in suite laundry was fantastic to have.Colleen has thought of absolutely everything to make this perfect home away from home.

Thank you for the kind review.
It's always great to hear when our guests comment on how comfortable they sleep in the king-size bed.
With Appreciation.
We loved the suite, nice and private, our pet was welcomed warmly. We had what ever we needed, very handy location as we could walk to get groceries, restaurants, pharmacy, etc. Seemed to be a safe neighbourhood, had no issues. We are hoping to return for a repeat visit. Colleen was very nice as host, if we wanted anything she looked after us. We stayed 4 weeks. Would highly recommend.
