Review from Greg Rudd

by Greg Rudd

5 out of 5 stars

I recently did a short-term rental with CheckedIn Victoria. The representative that I dealt with was extremely accommodating and actually offered me the option of looking at two different condos to choose from. I chose one on the edge of Chinatown.

From the start of the process, everything was very streamlined and efficient. Signing the agreement and then having access to the keys and FOBs was effortless and simple.

The actual condo was far beyond expectations. Everything was considered, from the extra bedding and linen to the kitchen amenities. Nothing was needed in order to live comfortably as if you were in your own home. It was a very enjoyable, trouble-free stay. Worth every penny when you consider the amount of detail and convenience that is provided, far beyond what a hotel will offer, and at much less cost.

I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend Checked In Victoria to anyone requiring some short-term accommodation. They even allowed me to extend my stay for a couple of weeks beyond what was initially planned for.
