UVIC Ocean View Private Guesthouse

Clean, tidy, modern, great neighbourhood

It was perfect for my needs

The bed was very comfortable and there was everything that was needed. Maybe add a mug or two? Beautiful views. Was good to have the fan as was really warm. Bathroom was nice and helpful to have toiletries. Was really good having the washing machine and dryer.

Having told the host that I had mobility issues, I was disappointed to have had no notice of the awful, uneven steps at the back with no handrails. I notice someone talked about this previously and still no change. If I had arrived alone there is no way I’d have been able to get in there as it was hard enough walking up with my walking stick without trying to take a big case up. Not helped that it was dark when we arrived and no light. That would be easily remedied as there is a light which goes on as it gets dark-if the switch inside is left on. Perhaps it could be? Only issue with cleanliness was when I went to clean the toilet-the toilet brush is awful and needs replaced as soon as possible. The glass ‘wall’ in the bathroom was a bit weird. Whilst not the host’s fault, the roadworks are a big problem. I did ask as my friend in Victoria told me there was work done and got info from the host which was helpful, but it curtailed what I could do as I had to rely on lifts rather than take uber as road was marked closed.

We liked the area. Lovely surroundings.

The Stonehenge cups had a very special personal meaning for us.

It was challenging to find the house using Google Maps because of the road closures.
