Central location, excellent facilites
Pros: Excellent central location in Victoria, historic area, wooden cobbles on the alley roadway. Quirky apartment, this is a 2 storey top floor apartment with roof top patio which had great views, and was great to sit on with a glass of wine in the evening. The bed is up stairs in a mezzanine area, bathroom downstairs. Very central and you can walk everywhere - harbour one way, Chinatown the other. Cafes, restaurants and bars all around. Full kitchen facilities, and washer/dryer combo very welcome after more than 3 weeks travelling. Good WiFi. Air conditioner in the upstairs bedroom area.
Cons: The whole apartment block is in need of some TLC - the entrance area was not very inviting with rubbish and leaves blowing around, lift mat torn. Paintwork in bathroom needs redoing, (dark red shows the chips) and the bed needs a replacement mattress. The alley was noisy on a couple of evenings, (lots of shouting and even a car revving engine for lengthy period) - we were there mid week, so weekends may be very noisy. All pot plants on roof top area and small balcony off the living area were dead - no point in having these things if not cared for. We bought food for a BBQ one evening but the gas ran out after a few minutes and the hosts did not respond to several messages sent via text/email and through booking.com for over 36 hours. TV streaming was intermittent if that is important to you.

Really quirky, very comfortable, great location
Pros: We liked the individuality, had everything you'd need .Location was excellent and we loved the wooden cobbles in the street outside
Cons: You can't get from bedroom to bathroom without covering up, as no curtain\\blind over the kitchen window. Pots on patio were a bit neglected.

A beautiful place with great amenities but the bars nearby can be noisy
Pros: The central location is great, near bars and restaurants. very easy to walk around to nearby attractions and the harbour
Cons: The bar next door got very noisy, even with earplugs. The instructions to get into the building were missing information but thanks to the friendly merchant next door the issue was resolved.

Pros: This apartment was perfect, location wise, and very comfortable. We had a car, and there was a car park conveniently across the road and only $17 a day. Access is via codes to the main entrance and the apartment. One code wouldn't work for us, but one phone call, and this was fixed immediately. Well appointed and looked exactly like the photos. Great Italian restaurant at the end of the alley. Highly recommend.
Cons: The apartment is in an area where there are a lot of eating places and bars. It was a bit noisy but would not hesitate to stay here again.

Sweet loft with rooftop patio in the heart of Victoria’s historic old town.
Pros: Great space. Loved that it was on two stories with high ceilings and a rooftop patio. The kitchen was well-appointed.
Cons: We did not receive the correct door codes and had difficulty contacting the host when trying to get back into the suite. It was very frustrating. Also, communication from Booking.com was annoying with multiple repeat messages with no new content. Parking is off-site and you have to pay about $18 a day in a city lot.

Mega schönes Apartment mit tollem Meerblick! Wir kommen gerne wieder:-)
Pros: Tolles, modernes und top ausgestattetes Apartment in bester Lage! Großartige Aussicht auf das Meer von der Dachterrasse.
Cons: Die Matratze war etwas zu weich bzw. durchgelegen leider. Die Fenster würden sich über eine Reinigung bestimmt auch mal wieder freuen;-)...aber halb so wild
