Quiet neighborhood with close proximity to restaurants, cafes, and shops. Property is well maintained - I thought it was newer than it actually is! - and the front desk staff was really friendly and helpful. Loved that they have a complimentary on-site L2 EV charger; it would’ve been great if we didn’t need to inconvenience the front desk staff to “activate” the charger every time we wanted to use it (they had to go down to activate it with their tap-card; it’d be great if they could program our room key card so we could tap instead).

The staff were good, and helpful. The room was plain, but clean. My wife enjoyed the restaurant breakfast. My only comment would be the lack of a glass in the bathroom.

This is our go to hotel in Nanaimo. Parking is very good off-season. Rooms are clean and beds are comfortable. Usually very quiet and a good sleep. We asked for a wake-up call but it didn't happen for some reason.
