The owners checked in with us twice before we arrived to ensure that we had the reservation correct, that we knew their check-in procedure, and that everything we needed and would use was well explained. We had our choice of 3 amazing breakfasts - we chose crepes that had a beautiful presentation and amazing taste. Their two standard poodles were well trained and served as ambassadors for any guests who needed an animal hug. We will recommend this amazing B & B to friends and family; and look forward to staying there the next time we are staying over in Victoria.
