A nice, tidy apartment

The apartment was clean and had everthing i needed. I did find the ceiling rather low, and it was further from downtown than I expected

Wonderful place to stay

Thank you Rita for all the comforts of the lovely stay at your very comfy abode, We had everything we couldp have wanted and more. No need for a car with the excellent public transit system at our disposal just 5 mins walk round the corner taking us downtown in 10 mins and much further if wanted to other interesting places throughout Vancouver Island.

Cute cozy home away from home.

The place was wonderful. Low ceiling but not a problem for me at 5'3. Cozy bed. Good for walking to restaurants.

Comfortable and easy stay

Casa Grosvenor is a lovely place to stay when travelling to and around Victoria. It is a generous and comfortable one bedroom suite; the kitchen is well equipped; and it is centrally located with easy access to the major routes. It is a mature house in an older part of town; and so some local tolerances are in order: don't be too tall and drive a smaller car. In sum, Casa Grosvenor is easy to enjoy.

Excellent location

We very much enjoyed our time at Casa Grosvenor. Rita’s place was cozy and comfortable and it was easy to get anywhere from her place. Rita was extremely helpful and accommodating and very knowledgeable about things to do in Victoria and surrounding areas. She was so easy to communicate with and always answered any questions we had promptly. I will definitely refer any friends or family members to Rita’s place.

Grosvenor

Very quiet location. Comfortable bed. Water pressure & water temperature was accurate. Location was 10/15 minutes walking distance to shopping & groceries Bus was frequent in both directions and the 5 all day pass was very convenient for on & off touring. Bathroom was a bit small for larger individuals but lots of room in other areas of the sub basement apartment. The unit was well equipped for cooking & fridge was a good standard size. Owner was helpful in relaying information pertaining to bus changes & garbage collection days. Washer & dryer were available.

Comfortable with great location

Small but comfortable living room and bedroom. Kitchen was well equipped. Bathroom was small but adequate. Location was great and Rita was helpful and friendly. Parking on the street was good 95% of the time but can park in the driveway the other times. Clean quiet and economical. Two month stay was very nice. We really enjoyed doing many things in Victoria and we would stay here again next time we’re back on the island.

This place has a very HARD BED! I had to sleep on the cushions from the couch for 3 nights!!! Also don't like that you are in a basement. Very dark.

The accommodations met our expectation

Cozy, Quiet, Comfortable & Convenient......... Rita adds her own friendly and personal touch to make a stay here enjoyable. This location is central to transit and a large shopping mall. Though the bath is a bit small, it meets the need and the bed is VERY comfortable. The fact that Netflix is provided is an added bonus.

Great place to stay in Victoria

My daughter and I stayed four comfortable nights and look forward to visiting again. Rita was super nice and fun to meet. Victoria is such a great place to visit and Rita has provided the perfect place for us to stay when we visit. My daughter is 5’11” and was comfortable with the ceiling height, but said she wouldn’t want to be any taller.

Good and quiet location, great value for money

My wife and I enjoyed our stay very much: Good wifi, great shower water pressure, quiet street. Rita was very accommodating, allowing us an early check-in an late check-out. Ceiling is low indeed, with a beam at 1.75 m, but unlike a few previous reviews I did not find it to be big issue (I'm 1.78 m). Good access to bus (#4), or one could even walk to downtown. Great value!

Just love this place. Great location. Cozy unit

What fantastic accommodation. The unit is clean and has everything you need. Located in a nice quiet residential area. Close by transportation , restaurants and stores. Rita the owner is amazing, she makes you feel so welcome and makes sure you have everything you need.She also has lots of information on sightseeing and local restaurants. This is a great place to stay, as you can take the bus all around the Victoria area using a $5 day bus pass.

More than promised

The pros were it`s location and price, and a good quality bed. It`s cons were that there was no patio or outdoor relaxing space (as shown on pictures, but rather two metal chairs on a driveway next to a parked car), no fresh flowers on arrival (as promised), frequently no place for parking (owner takes driveway and street parking is very full), a dirty smelly fridge full of items left by others (including expired dairy), no laundry facility, 2 old towels per person for 2 weeks, and a hazardous beam at 5 ft 8 in the middle of the kitchen/living room area that could cause a serious head injury.

Great Cozy and Quiet Basement Suite

My wife and I were in Victoria for me to race a triathlon and visit the city. We wanted a quiet place because I wanted to get a good nights' sleep and had to get up really early for the race on Sunday. This unit is very quiet, cozy, and private. It's a full suite, way more room than any normal hotel room and has a full kitchen and living room area. Furnishings aren't luxury or anything but nicely kept up and clean. We loved it. The only thing to keep in mind is the low ceiling. I'm 6'4" (192cm) and my hair was brushing the ceiling. If you're any taller than me you won't be able to stand straight up. For most "normal" sized people , as my wife would say, it's no problem. The owner was super accommodating let us check in early because our ferry was in the morning, and let us come back in the afternoon on checkout day so I could have a shower after my race before leaving town. Lovely, stay.

Enjoyed the space, vey clean and well equipped. The washroom is a bit of a challenge for large peopl

the area is quiet and there is easy access to all the places we wanted to go. Parking was good. could use an extra sensor light going up the drive way. All in all we liked the place. Would stay again.
