Comfortable Studio

Comfortable studio suite close to the Sidney ocean walkway. Quiet. Nice to have laundry in the suite. Everything we needed to cook our own meals, though a barbecue for the suite would be a nice addition. Beautiful backyard. We would happily stay here again.

A wonderful home from home with everything to make your stay an enjoyable one.

We had a wonderful 19 days in Tony and Sandy's apartment. So good we didn't want to go home! Everything was provided to make our stay a most comfortable one. It was very well situated close to town centre and shops, cafes and restaurants. Close to the shore line and lovely walks. Very close to the San Juan Ferry and bus stops for Victoria, Butchart Gardens and for the ferry to Vancouver and Nanaimo. A lovely kitchen to cook meals. Food shopping was easy and we were delighted with the choice of at least 3 large supermarkets. Eating out wasn't so expensive as it was in UK and plenty cafes for coffee and cake in the afternoon. Overall we had a great holiday and Tony and Sandy were lovely hosts. We will most certainly be back . On second thoughts I maybe shouldn't have written this review? I want to make sure they are not all booked up and always have space for us! But seriously we can honestly say best place ever!

Everything anyone could want in a guest suite.

The suite was extremely comfortable. The owners clearly have the comfort of guest in mind as they provide hooks for rain gear and spare unbrellas by the door, a comforter for napping, ample linens, a well equipped kitchen, and a shoe wrack and hooks near a heater for drying. It's these small things, in combination with proximity to shopping and the seaside, that make this guest suite stand out. I would definitely stay here again.
