Business Trip
The hotel is located across the street from one of the marina's in Nanaimo. The room was comfortable, clean, and warm. I could see one of the marinas from the door to my hotel room.

Absolutely charming gem of a spot. I made use of the stove. Bed was comfy, thank you to the front desk agent who helped with my bag upstairs. When I checked out , I saw he helped another patron with her bags crossing the street too.

Shanti, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful King room/suite, with everything you need, lovely and clean. The staff are super pleasant and very helpful. Just an overnight stop to catch the ferry next day at the terminal which is just across the road. This Inn is a 'hidden gem', we will definitely stay longer next time!
Trevor and Pat, 1-night trip

Nice motel for a great price. Quiet. Room was very clean but a little small. Very close to the ferry to Horseshoe Bay. Great bar just down the street. Front desk staff was super friendly. A little away from downtown but a very easy drive.

Very clean, warm reception, felt safe, great value
Super clean. Really nice towels, bed pillows. A bit noisy and mattress was so-so, but the very friendly reception, location, value are unbeatable! Didn't expect to stay again so soon, but I now have a great little motel in Nanaimo I can rely on. Thank you, Buccaneer folks, for your good work!
