    Nanaimo is a cool little city.

    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.

    These rooms have been updated with care - not like a lot of old motels that slap on a coat of paint and call it a day. Everything was new and clean, great walk-in shower, fridge, comfy bed. Walking distance to downtown Nanaimo and the harbour. This was more than half the price of the chain hotels near by.

    The rooms were very modern and clean, with hightech lighting. The staff was very friendly and the hotel was really beautiful. The location was central to the downtown part of Nanaimo and close driving distance to the ocean as well.

    The view from my room on the 11th floor was great - overlooking the Nanaimo Waterfront. The room is relatively spacious and the King size bed was comfortable.

    It is one of few hotels in Nanaimo that had a pool. That was the big draw.
