It is for the owner only, if the ceiling in the bedroom will be soundproof it will be a 6 star evaluation. Early in the morning you hear people walking. The location is top, the cleanliness is top and view of the garden amazing. We enjoy our stay. Thanks Cathie and Ron. M-C from Montreal

We came at night and we couldn’t see the house number. I had to put the flashlight on my phone and walk up to the house to see the number. Lighting came on going down the stairs but could use better lighting out front at night.
Also it would be nice to have ice for drinks .
But we were happy with the place and location.

Our stay with Cathie is always wonderful. She is a communicative kind host, eager to make our stay enjoyable!
The suite is immaculate and bright with large windows looking over beautiful gardens. The Lovely patio is a perfect place for morning coffee, relaxing and meals.
Great location for getting around Victoria, walks, beaches and shopping.
We love this quiet, peaceful gem and look forward to many return visits

My stay at this VRBO was excellent! The host communicated with us before and during our stay making sure we were as comfortable as possible! The location is very close to the bus stop which made it easy for us to get around Victoria and safe enough to use transit later at night. The place was very clean and had all the appliances we needed. The sound from upstairs carried a bit but overall we felt very comfortable. Would definitely stay again!

I stayed at Cathie’s for two weeks during a medical school elective at the Royal jubilee hospital. It was a perfect location, easy to get to the hospital and downtown by bus, and a cozy, well appointed suite. I would absolutely stay again!

This property is the perfect
Spot for our visits to our children in Victoria. Very quiet neighbourhood, parking while on the street is safe. The host keeps a beautifully clean property and they are kept up properly. The back yard is amazing to look at, even in the fall. We always try yo book here first.

Our suite was comfortable, stylish, and very clean! The kitchenette had a few food and cookware items for easy breakfasts - which was so helpful. The hosts have a lovely garden that we were able to relax in. The location was central (easy to get downtown and out of town) and safe. We really enjoyed our stay!

My husband and I so enjoyed our short stay here and would love to come back for longer. The location was convenient to all the major attractions and the hospitality and beautiful back garden made our stay so relaxing and comfortable. The room was very clean and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed reading in the comfy chairs and having breakfast in the garden. Can’t wait to return!

Wow! It is hard to articulate the overall experience: from the message sent before arrival, to the check in, to the attention to details, to the quiet neighbourhood (fantastic location) and the gorgeous gardens. Hosts were above and beyond in terms of hospitality and helpfulness. We have found our home away from home!!

A Very Disappointing Outcome
After moving all our stuff in, including a big oxygen tank, Cathy advised us there was DEFINITELY NO SMOKING ON THE PROPERTY. This was actually listed in the add, but my husband booked the property and missed this info. I went out on the street to smoke and Cathy came out and told me we had to leave by morning. Her husband, she said, is very allergic to smoke. We left by 8:00 AM. What really bothered us, WAS THAT SHE NEVER OPENED IT UP FOR OTHERS TO RENT IT. WE found out June 13 they were going on holidays. As she said we would have been there while they were gone so they would not have had to worry about it. And therefore could not rent it out anyway. If a person is so allergic to smoke how can he even travel and be around other people. YOUR OPINION WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED ON THIS. We had to scramble for those 3 weeks to find places to stay and that was not easy and of course very expensive as we had paid her for those 3 weeks! Submitted by a VERY DISAPPOINTED COUPLE!!

We have never been to Victoria before. When choosing a place the first thing I check is the reviews. This place had a five star rating. That’s not an easy rating to acquire. We arrived and the suite was fully ready. Easy to find. Located in a quiet area . Venues were easy to get to. Place was exceptionally clean. Beautiful garden. Cathie answered any questions we had . Just a great home away from home. Thank you Cathie. Worth the money.
