I'm very happy with the cleanliness of the room. That's the number one thing for me! Even the bathroom is sparkling clean 😲. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful when checking us in. She even tolerated my husband's jokes. I love the huge table area in the room with plenty of space to unpack our things. Could've used some clothes hangers though, but not a big deal. We will stay here again, if and when I return to Nanaimo.

Towels and beddings could have been cleaned better. Overall OK place to stay if you only needed accommodations for sleeping. The place could use a bit more upgrades. The lady at the front desk was cheerful and super friendly!

On a positive, the staff are great - very helpful and friendly. The room is ok for the price - microwave, Keurig and fridge are nice touches. The con is the noise from the street - it all comes through the walls and window.

The family room was literally a big house behind the hotel and the suite was roomy, new and clean. This house was a step up from a hotel room, it felt like a home and it was way above expectations. The photos did not do the ad justice... The staff were accommodating, knowledgeable and aim to please. I recommend the family room., even if it's just 2 people. It's way more square feet with a view and secure and gated parking area just for the family suites.
