Airport Bed & Breakfast Victoria BC

5 mins Victoria Int Airport & Ferrys. EXCELLENT affordable accommodations. PrIvate bathrooms, separate entrance AND OUTSTANDING BREAKFAST! All TAX included. Freindly staff. Monthly stay in off season.

Downstairs King-bed room was clean, quiet and private with tile floors (great for people with pet allergies staying in places that allow pets) and a kitchen. No a/c but owner set up a fan which worked perfectly. Plenty of brochures on nearby local attractions. Breakfast was hot and tasty and owner was most helpful.

Shirley is a gracious conscientious host.

(The google reviews surprise me but then, there were other guests who had a much better experience in a different suite or room).This bed and breakfast was hugely disappointing and we were eager to leave! Upon entering suite # 3, we were overwhelmed by the musty smell. The furniture is old, mismatched and in the bedroom it was insufficient.The rooms were unattractive with their dated and random furnishings-no style, no effort to make it look good. It would take so little to upgrade the place. The sheets were rough, ancient, mismatched and pilled. The towels were no better. It was dusty and unfortunately, I had to look under a few pieces of furniture to find something I dropped. Big mistake! My friends felt more comfortable wearing socks because they felt the floor was dusty. I don't know if it really was but the musty, old, ragged appearance of the furnishings and linens was enough to make us not want to touch things. If this were a hostel with a 2 star rating and I paid a low price for such a hostel I could go with it. But this was pricey. The door to our suite didn't even lock!There was a roll away twin with sheets, 2 thin, lightweight comforters and 2 pillows, all in the closet. We questioned how clean the linens were and certainly they didn't smell fresh. They, too were old, rough and mismatched. I was glad I had my own pillow and didn't have to smell the pillow case. If one of us didn't use the roll away they had to use the pull out sofa. One look at this ancient piece of 80's furniture told us a rough night would be in store for the unlucky soul who opted for that coach. Sofa beds in the past were NOT comfortable. I didn't even bother to look for sheets.We opened the window to let fresh air in. It was cool and there were no extra blankets. It was touch and go as to whether or not we had enough.Now to the surprise. We met our hostess the morning after we arrived because she had business to attend to. Based on the suite I expected the hostess to be a little old, dowdy lady struggling to make ends meet. So wrong! She is vibrant and outgoing, attractive and well-put together. Her home where we ate is clean and reflects her effort to decorate. The breakfast was ample and very good. Clearly she put a lot of effort in to both the meal and the presentation and took pride in it. We had quiche, juice, croissant, ham and a nicely presented fruit compote, along with coffee or tea.The other surprising thing was the comments by the other guests at our breakfast table. They had left another place because it was dirty and unsatisfactory. They were happy here. The other couple raved about their room, suite 1. Go figure. Maybe our room was the unwanted stepchild, pushed aside and forgotten, the lowly number 3.Finally, another observation. She has set up a lovely gazebo outside with new furnishings. It looked like a great place to relax. To me this suggests she had some money to invest into her property. Based upon this and some of our conversation, I wonder if the condition of # 3 suite could be improved with little cost and a great reward for the effort. Just saying....

Had a Fantastic stay here! The room was bright. clean and cozy, I felt right at home. I went for a nice stroll to the Ocean which is nice and close by. What a wonderful place to come back to, her place is beautiful, so welcoming and I felt extremely relaxed being there. The breakfast that Shirley served was spectacular, I felt spoiled, it was beyond my expectations! Shirley is soo nice, you can see how passionate she is about her B and B, she loves her customers and goes out of her way to make them comfortable and happy. Thanks Shirley for being so awesome and thanks for sharing your beautiful home,I look forward to seeing you again.

Nice room

She’s to old to maintain her business that’s why the place is filthy.bed sheets smells bad and pillow case has some old dry saliva.never again she’s rude and mean

For 2 years during COVOID I was a tenant at the B&B on Amity Drive in North Saanich.During the last 6 months the behavior of the landlady became rather uncharacteristic! September 2022 I found myself locked out of the suite without any reason or cause! Having excellent references, I was able to secure temporary lodgings. I am writing this review to warn other potential renters of the unstable situation at this lodging.With so little rental property on the market it would be tempting to rent this suite. However being locked out illegally ,having to involve the police to be able to access my belongings was a dreadful ordeal.This is my personal experience and MAY it save some others grief .

Shirley is so nice. Breakfast was nice and she makes lovely conversation. Was a nice stay
