1) too many access codes to gain entry to room made it difficult to get to room 2) NOISY so couldn’t sleep 3) needs black out curtains in bedroom 4) washer and dryer broken it ruined my clothes with the dye from the blue laundry detergent pods they provided 5) toilet paper dispenser broken off wall 6) no ice available 7) no washcloths to wash face 8) body wash was too fragrant and burned my skin 9) drug addicts and homeless people made me feel unsafe entering/exiting building 10) LOUD non stop music 11) the apartment smelled like dirty wet dog, dirty feet and marijuana. It was a repulsive smell so it felt very unclean 12) air/heat on wall broken, no directions how to use and found out later from mgr I needed 2 different remote controls that were missing 13) windows were filthy 14) toilet needs a deep clean, looks neglected and stained 15) I liked the way it was decorated and size

We were pleasantly surprised by the flat and its location. The entry and check in process was seamless and there was plenty of communication about access before our arrival. The unit was well equipped, with the exception of an umbrella. It seems there was one at one time, but it was no longer available. The unit was tidy throughout although the carpets could use a freshen up. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was spotless. A nice touch was the make up removing facecloth and especially the white noise machine. It was very useful as the unit wasn't quiet. Not only due to the neighbours, but there was a movie being filmed in the alley directly outside of the flat. Can't imagine this is an issue very often, but it just happened to coincide with the duration of our stay. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

It was a fun "flat" with quirky decor. It was suitable for one night or a month since it was furnished like a "flat" with dishes, stove, dishwasher and laundry. It felt like home.

What a great place to stay! In the perfect location near shopping and dining in Victoria. Short walk to The Empress, the Wharf, Museums, etc. The furnishings and layout were very comfortable. Everything clean in and in working order. We had a little trouble with the outside gate, but the management was very helpful and responsive.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The coffee machine was broken, the blinds do not block out light from the alley and the parking location they recommended was not safe. Our vehicle was broken into and multiple windows smashed. While they don’t have control of what happens outside the unit, being located next to the Salvation Army facility for the homeless was not great and a large number of sketchy people were hanging around the entrance. Finding vomit and human excrement near the entry was less than ideal.

The location of the property was very convenient. The flat was clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again. There is a restaurant/pub just on the corner of the alley and the music and patrons were quite loud during the evening hours, but everything quietened down by midnight. Great place to stay.

Confusion about access created anxiety about the check in. We had children above us for several nights whose footsteps were very heavy! And frequent. We liked the location — close to lots of facilities.

I loved it, and when I come back to Victoria for another trip I will definitely look for this location. Spacious room, right by quite a lot to see, good food around the corner, it was a fantastic location. There was even a surprise movie shoot right in the shared alleyway, what a delight! My only qualms were that another guest previously had re arranged some power cords so it took me a little bit to figure out the bedroom lighting.

Great location, made it very easy to explore downtown, inner harbour, Chinatown and more! Very convenient to have the full kitchen and even laundry in our unit. Staff were very prompt in assisting when we phoned in, an email we sent on day one went unanswered our whole trip. The unit was clean and well stocked. The bed and pillows were not very comfortable. Overall great value for the price!
