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!

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.

Very Disappointed. DEFINITELY not the place to stay for Seniors trying to Enjoy a Vacation and save some Money .Under Described in the in listing. We were Stunned to see NO ELEVATOR or Fridge only a Community Kitchen on the Ground Floor. We Lost several Food Items because of this situation. Also that we had to Share a Bathroom. We had to Carry our Luggage up 2 Flights of Stairs .The Front Desk Staff were Pleasant but Neglected to give us any Direction as to which Building we were in.They handed us 2 Keys and a Fob. We had to go Back to the Office twice to get Directions. We were Booked for 2 Nights but we only Survived One. A Very Disappointed Start of our Visit to Nanaimo. Peter Rainone

The residence is a budget friendly stay but it is not like a typical hotel stay. Do not expect clean towels daily or your bed made. The residence is also not in a great part of town which was a huge drawback for me as I was hoping to explore by foot.

Good spot, it’s not extravagant but it’s very good for the price point. Plenty of room to cook in common areas, bathroom shared with one other room, decently comfy bunk beds. Thanks VIU!

This was a very affordable dorm for the charming tourist town of Nanaimo. It was quiet and convenient. The shared kitchen had two nice microwaves. The washers and dryer’s looked newer. We enjoyed our one night stay. Was a little surprised by the security deposit of around $200, but perhaps this is a general university dorm policy.
