Doug and Jackie were the best host possible. The unit was very clean and well equipped with all a couple needs for a vacation. It is a very central location to all that Victoria Downtown has to offer. My parents had a wonderful time.

The apartment is very spacious and tastefully decorated; everything I would need is available, down to garbage bags and a full kitchen supply. The apartment is within a few minutes walk to the wharf and government street and is so convenient. The hosts are lovely and made my stay a smooth sailing. Would definitely recommend and stay again myself!

When we were looking to rent a place in Victoria we loved the look of the Awarehouse loft. Historic building but modern inside. It turned out to be more than we expected. This place is very charming and super clean. We liked the fact that the building is very secure with a locked gate and another lock to get to the elevator. There is also the rooftop to relax and watch the sun set. Our hosts Doug and Jacqui greeted us when we arrived and explained everything we needed to know. If we wanted to know more, Doug prepared an informative manual about the loft stuff, restaurants, coffee shops, public transit and more. We found the appliances good, great small appliances, many coffee makers, food processor, an amazing toaster, and more ... There are many pots and pans, bowls, many dishes, cups, glasses, good knives and everything you may need. For our use there was a spice rack with different spices, coffee, teas, and more. We didn't even have to bring soap, shampoo or toilet paper. The bed was comfortable, good size bathroom with a towel warmer and washer and dryer. In the living room there are comfortable recliners, a big TV, a nice dining table, and two stools to sit by the counter. There are books, magazines and playing cards. For us it was very interesting to sit by the window and watch the people walk by. The location couldn't be better. Just a short walk to the Inner Harbour, the museum, Parliament Building, China Town and the best restaurants, cafes and shopping. We went for a walk to a different location every day and our favorite was to cross the bridge and walk on the path to the left. There is noise from the street on weekends but it didn't bother us, we just closed the bedroom window and didn't hear it. To sum it up, we loved our five weeks at the loft, we would like to return, and recommend it to our friends and family.
