Everything was excellent! The room was clean, modern, and well-maintained, with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. The staff were exceptionally helpful, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit. The location was also very convenient, making it easy to get around and explore the area. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this hotel to others and the price was very good!

Welcoming and easy registration. Knowledgeable about the campus and larger community. Friendly and quick housekeeping.
I have a physical disability and appreciated the upgrade to accommodate my accessability needs, convenient parking and accessible bathroom. I felt safe.
The community kitchen was clean and had the necessary appliances and counter top appliances.
I always enjoy watching the resident bunnies

This hostile is really a university where the rooms are rented out during the summer while kids are on break. The check-in was seamless and the staff was incredibly pleasant to deal with. There is laundry available you have to get a laundry card from the front desk or have university App..The rooms are incredibly hot even with the windows open and the fan they provide. The dorms are not soundproof so you hear every door open and slam. There is a kitchen availble if yiu have your own food. Aivwralk a good stay for a night maybe two.

There was a problem with the phone system - I had called several times before I arrived to ask about certain conditions. That was the only glitch.

Everything was clean but on hotels.com it was advertised as we were having our own fridge but its a common fridge and stove in the building appartments. It was a little hot to sleep but they did gave us a small fan for each room so that was a nice gesture. Overall good and clean for one night sleep.

This property is a great affordable option for a stay in Nanaimo! Check in was easy, finding the door was a bit annoying because there’s 3 doors in the check in building but 2 of them are unlocked (really not a big deal). Laundry is on site which you have to pay for minimum $10 but they also have laundry detergent to provide you. There was no elevator in the building so we had to carry our luggage up 2 flights of stairs.
10/10 we would stay again!
