    newly renovated room
    outdoor garden area
    sun terrace
    street noise

    Had a fantastic stay with a newly renovated room that felt super cozy and clean! The outdoor garden area was a perfect chill spot, and I enjoyed the sun terrace for some relaxation. The only downside was the noise from the street, but it didn't put a damper on my overall experience. 🌞

    cozy room
    garden area
    comfortable bed
    awkward shower
    noise issues

    The Queen Room felt cozy and clean, with a well-functioning mini-fridge and microwave that made snacking easy. Enjoyed the comfortable bed, though the pillows could use some softening. The outdoor garden area was a wonderful spot to relax, despite the nearby street noise which made sleeping a bit challenging. Good location for accessing local parks and the harbor. However, I was disappointed that the shower head was awkwardly placed, making it uncomfortable to use. The absence of an AC unit during hot weather was also a downside, especially when the room got quite warm. It was nice having black-out drapes for better sleep, but some areas did require deeper cleaning. Another thing to note was the noise from the hallway that carried into my room, making it less private.

    cozy room
    rainfall shower
    elegant vanity

    The newly renovated Queen Room was cozy and clean. I loved the rainfall shower head and the portable air conditioner was a lifesaver during the heat. The added touches, like the elegant vanity and extra towels, made my stay super comfortable! 🌟

    clean room

    It was just a great fit for spending a night in Nanaimo with high value for money. We appreciated the fairly clean room, which made our stay comfortable. Make sure to bring earplugs for a quieter night.

    Comfortable room, convenient location, the newly renovated decor was appealing with a lovely outdoor space that offered a relaxing area to enjoy my coffee each morning.

    Everything was as expected.

    smoking issue

    We had a lovely family stay with our granddaughter. The staff were very friendly and made us feel welcome, and the grounds were well-kept. The location was super convenient, especially for visiting the nearby shopping center and ferry terminal.

    My wife says that it would be great if there were dedicated areas to keep smoking away from family areas.

    convenient amenities
    noisy street
    hard pillows
    busyness

    The newly renovated room was a breath of fresh air with a fantastic rainfall shower head and a portable air conditioner that made the stay comfortable. The abundance of pillows was a pleasant surprise, along with a mini-fridge and microwave for convenience. However, the noise from the busy street made it challenging to sleep, and the bed, while comfortable, could benefit from softer pillows. It would be wise to request a quieter room away from the road.

    outdoor garden area
    helpful staff
    street noise

    The Queen Room was newly renovated and featured a microwave and mini-fridge, perfect for quick snacks. The room was clean, and the comfortable bed provided a good night's rest. The outdoor garden area with a lovely fountain was an inviting space to relax after a long day. Also, the helpful staff at the reception were eager to assist with any needs during my stay.

    The noise from the busy street could be disruptive, especially at night.
