April, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

While not in the best neighborhood in the city it was a wonderful, recently renovated room. Best value hotel in Nanaimo. Exceptional front desk staff and cleaners. Would stay again in heartbeat.
Jeremy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Quiet, clean room
Check in was quick and both the checkin and checkout staff was very helpful. The room was clean and even though we had a room in the front it was quiet. There were lots of electrical plugs, especially by the beds, so no issue in plugging in my husband's breather and our cell phones and tablets. Only thing I missed was, although there was coffee provided, there wasn't any tea bags and I forgot to bring some.
