Gutes B und B in Zentrumsnaehe
Freundliche Herbergsmutter die einem auch gute Tipps zum Essen oder Ausflüge gibt. Einzig das Putzmittel riecht unangenehm. Frühstück mit frischem Obst. Gerne wieder.

Nice place in quiet neighborhood
We only spend one night, but the size and the room with the facilities were a revelation. The breakfast was delicious and there was enough different kind of foods to suite anybodys needs.
The location is a bit outside of victoria, but you can reach the harbor in about 15 minutes walk, also there are stores and restaurants nearby.
The owner is really nice, as is the whole building. there is basically only one flaw: the house is really clairaudient. We were in a downstairs room and were disturbed by the sounds of shuffeling chairs form other guests in the breakfast room above.
However we would have liked to stay there for another night, but it was booked out - even though at the time of booking expedia had listed a vacancy. So if you book, try to contact the owner to verify the booking. Maybe they have the problem figured out by now...

Lovely vintage home 4 long blocks from town.
Elegant continental breakfast.
The room we rented included a private bath a few steps away. Unfortunately, other guests, whose English was inadequate to understand that, occupied our bath. This was not the fault of the owner.

Private room too far from downtown
This b&b is cute and the room I had was well stocked with water, a coffee machine, soaps (no body wash) and robes. The continental breakfast was delicious and the host was very sweet.
My only issue with the place was that the extra blankets in the closet smelled kinda moldy, the fridge also smelled moldy and wasn't cold enough and that the location is further than expected from downtown Victoria.
Other reviews say 10-15 minutes to downtown and I would say more like a 20 minute walk or a bus ride - so just be prepared. The worst part is not the walk though, but where you have to walk past to get there. A homeless shelter meaning lots of homeless people along the whole street. As a solo traveler, it made me feel uncomfortable having to walk to far with my luggage.
Other than that, the accommodations were great with fast wifi, Netflix and a comfortable couch and bed.

Worth it for a short get away; not for long stay
I stayed one night - just passing through.
Breakfast was fresh fruit, fresh baked goods, cereal, yogurt. There were vegetarian and gluten free options.

Gaslight Inn - Could be renamed Glasslight Inn!
Great and varied continental breakfast with fresh baking as part of the offering. Quiet evenings make for a wonderful sleep.

Nice B n B close to town
Clean and comfortable accommodation with nice breakfast. Little walk into town but we found walking one of the easiest ways to get around. Free parking off the street which was handy

Close to downtown with an at home feeling
It was my first time in a bed and breakfast, so I wasn't sure what to expect. My check in was late but the owner was very good at making the arrangements for me to check in smoothly even thought she wasn't able to be there. The particular room I was in shared a bathroom with another room which I didn't expect, but worked out fine. The room was clean, comfortable and the older house was quite nice to be in. The breakfast was great - a help yourself kind of buffet, with a good fresh variety of things. Linda - the owner was very personable, kind, and willing to accommodate. I had to leave very early and she left a take home bag of muffins, fruit and water for the trip which was unexpected but great.

Beautiful Home, Charming Host
Beautifully restored Craftsman home; owner is wonderfully pleasant, accommodating and helpful, and takes great pride in making her house a real home. Rooms are large and very comfortable, with all needed amenities. One room shares bathroom, but that's fine with me -- something to know if it's not, for you. Good breakfasts, too!

Great and Friendly B&B
10 minute walk to a couple of great restaurants (Ca Va and Stables). 15 minute walk to downtown. Friendly owner and nice firm bed. Can say enough how few places have a nice firm bed. Lots of period architecture and stained glass. Great bathrooms with good water pressure although you do have to cross the hall to get to them. 2 rooms share one but we had the room with the private bathroom. The only downside is you can hear the traffic on Pandora. If you are a light sleeper not the place for you, otherwise we had a great stay and will definitely stay there again when in Victoria.

Amazing hospitality!
The room was cozy and clean, breakfast was fabulous, the host could not have been more friendly and accommodating and it is in a great location about a 20 min. walk to the centre. I highly recommend this B&B.

Weekend with Victoria
Only stayed one night. For the price, not bad overall.
Positives:
1) Beautiful old-style (dare I say Victorian?) home. Linda is an artist and it shows through her decor.
2) Solid breakfast, with home-made cinnamon buns.
3) Friendly host, welcoming.
4) Very well-appointed room.
5) Quite close to downtown.
Negatives:
1) shared bathroom, so you had to bring the bath towels from your room, but there was a bath towel already on the towel rack so made for an awkward situation (it sounded like the other room that was sharing with us was on a longer-term rental)
2) no toiletries of any kind, not even a bar of soap. Ended up using the liquid hand wash pump soap to wash ourselves in the shower.
3) parking is very tight. No on-street parking in front of the house, and really had to squeeze into driveway
4) Noisy/busy street in front of house. Could hear traffic noise at night, and hard to back car out.
5) Host was a bit unprofessional at times, negatively commenting on another guest behind their backs to us. Made us wonder if the same was happening to us behind our backs.

A Lovely Inn
What an enjoyable stay we had at the Gaslight Inn! This old house has been transformed into a lovely inn. There was incredible artwork throughout the inn, just a pleasing place to stay. The room was comfortable, quiet, and the excellent breakfast nicely presented by the friendly host, Linda. We chose the Inn because of its convenient location, but found a place we will surely return to.
