They let us drop our bags off earlier in the day and put them in storage which was very helpful and then delivered them to the room in the evening.

Nicely finished, very clean and fresh. Seems to have recently been refinished and was very tastefully done. Friendly staff, but very limited. If you’re looking for a great place to sleep and get a meal or a drink at a very reasonable rate, I’d definitely recommended it, but I would not suggest staying here if you looking for concierge services or other amenities. It was exactly what I was looking for, would have liked to have stayed longer and spent time at the pub!

Everything and everyone . I don't understand the discrepancies between online and in person booking . The pricing is all over the place . Also not quite sure why the restaurant closes at 830 . Even on weekends. Aside from that the staff was great . The room was great . The location great . Thank you

Location was great. Pleasant rooms and friendly staff.
Nanaimo is a cool little city. Depending on the goal of your trip renting a vehicle is recommended, since the city is spread out. As well there is much to see in surrounding areas. With the ocean, mountains and forest this community is surrounded by nature and beauty!

We had a great dinner at Firehouse Grill and fantastic coffee at Regards Coffee and the walk along the waterfront was nice but nothing super special, in all honesty it's kind of a dreary, quiet place that isn't very pretty. Maybe it has way more to offer than what meets the eye but I truly wouldn't care to stay there for more than a night passing through.

There was a couple of RATS outside by the pool but they stayed away from people. The hot tub wasn’t working either. But the pool was GLORIOUS and the room was clean to perfection. It was a nice place to sleep in!

I didn't see much of Nanaimo, just Petraglyph Park, before heading to Victoria. This side of Nanaimo was quiet, and I left very early. One great thing about South Nanaimo is its proximity to the Duke Point Ferry - a short drive. Also, the lack of nightlife meant my visit was quiet.
I would recommend visiting Petraglyph Park. It's not easy to find it, you have to be driving on the northbound side, but it's beautiful. I've enjoyed other aspects of Nanaimo in the past, especially the Woodgrove area, and I've found people there very friendly.

The ocean was the best part as there are many places to visit and the views are awesome. People were very friendly everywhere I went. The city is kept quite clean. Parks are nicely attended. Overall visit was very pleasant. Easy to get around having a vehicle as everything is very spread out. Piper's Cove and the harbor downtown were favorite.
Family owned gentle motel spotlessly clean inside and outside. I mean white floor & bathroom tile are CLEAN and WHITE to borders and edges. A bedroom with closed door, well equipped kitchenette, comfortable fold out sofa with good TV options. A brief trip back to a pleasant stay with beauty sunrise over Newcastle Island.
I've so had it with 'luxury' hotels all flash with splash of cleanliness the hotel equivalent of puppy mills.
Great location, newly renovated and pet friendly! Reception was so warm and welcoming! She made sure that a hot plate was available so I could cook, and arranged an early check in.
I had a ground level suite which opens up to a patio and fenced back yard that’s enclosed so my dog could hang outside without a worry he’d wander off. Such an excellent value stay!
The room is spacious and clean with very nice view. It's very clean. Fridge is good size. Starbuck coffee is very nice to have.vthe amenities are of good quality. Those little things are really nice to have. Besudes, the hotel is very pet friendly. We will definutely recommend to our friends and we will come back again.
The view and the beds were awesome . The beds were exactly what I like to sleep on , firm but just enough pillow to put you right to sleep . The view of the Nanaimo Harbor was great . The attached View Restaurant was some of the best food I have had in my travels . Kudos to the chef !
The prices are great for what you get. I've stayed here several times before and the staff are super friendly and down to earth. The rooms have been renovated and are comfortable and very clean. This is where I like to stay when I'm visiting Nanaimo.
Location along the waterfront with our waterfront room view. We know the restaurants were not part of the hotel but we ate a both and enjoyed our meals. Proximity to these was a nice bonus. The roof top terrace was also an added bonus.
Our room (on the 6th floor) has a great view torwards harbour waterfront. You are able to see beautiful sunrise! The room is quite spacious. The hotel is located near the old town quarter and is very convenient.
Inexpensive and reasonably ok. It has A/C which most cheap hotels in Nanaimo do not have. Staff were friendly. It was clean but old and starting to get a bit run down.
The room was immaculately clean, the hotel was SUPER easy to find, the bed was comfortable, and there was great food nearby. This was our best stay on this trip!
