"Great stay. Would recommend"

The Bluebird Motel

8/10 Good

"Notre chambre comportait une cuisinette avec un grand frigidaire. Nous avons apprécié. C’était propre et assez spatieux. Nous recommandons cet endroit. Très bonne qualite/prix."

Gibralter Rock Ocean View B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful views from the room's spacious balcony. Welcoming host and easy parking. Location is a little out of way so need car to access bar/restaurants and shops"

Inn On Long Lake

10/10 Excellent

"Nice spacious srooms, very clean, comfortable bed and beautiful view of the lake from each room. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Food choices for breakfast abundant. Nice place. Would definitely stay again."

Quality Inn

8/10 Good

"Basic room clean enough though I did find hair pieces in the bath. It is quite pricy for the basic room far from the center and quite up the hill. No breakfasts included. Since there are no shops and cafes near the hotel you end up getting the breakfast in the hotel restaurant which is just okay."

Departure Bay Motel

8/10 Good

"Bathroom pics were not the same as the ones posted online for my room. That was disappointing as my Bathroom looked nothing like the promoted pictures."

Ramada by Wyndham Nanaimo

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic breakfast each morning! Omelets, sausages, cereals, waffles, real juice (apple, orange, etc), fresh fruit. And coffee, tea, etc. toast and jams. The lady running the breakfast station worked like a whirlwind. She was a.azing! Well-organized and efficient. She deserves double wages."

Diplomat Motel

8/10 Good

"I do not type.ASFaegaewrgfhsaefbatefbEWRFBGefbTRHBerbERBFHerbfh"

The Spot

10/10 Excellent

"Very cute boutique hotel. Our room was inside through the lobby. Nice bedding, towels, big glass shower with rain shower head as well as a wand hand held shower. Great pressure. It's a small room, but great for the one night we were there. Front counter evening staff was very helpful and super friendly. Would definitely stay here again."
