The suite was perfect for our planned activities. The host offered us locations for bike storage after inquiry. The suite was clean, modern, and comfortable. Communication was prompt. Access to location was easy, thanks to Google, and parking was included. I definitely recommend if you need a home base to explore Victoria and area. Having a washing machine and dryer was a blessing seeing how we explored the area on bike. Having clean gear made exploring easy and... refreshing. :)

It was amazing! It feels like your own little house. I would recommend Chims guest house to anyone who wants to stay some place very nice, that feels like a home away from home. Staff/Owner was every nice, she told us places to see and eat on our visit. Very nice environment.

Nice bright clean basement suite (you'd never know it was a basement). Beautiful little protected bay/rocky beach close by. Very quiet residential neighbourhood. Nikki arranged an extension to charge EV overnight.
