It is super cute and very clean and nice. We were able to make some food and I made coffee in the am. There is a nice place to sit outside with a beautiful view and wonderful garden. I walked to the nearby park and saw the rhododendron trail and river which was really pretty. Quick drive to downtown. It felt safe and quiet and easy to walk around.

Quality Inn is located in Nanaimo, within 12 km of Wildplay Element Park and 3.3 km of Petroglyph Park. The property is around 700 metres from Nanaimo Museum, 2 km from Nanaimo Bastion and 2.1 km from Newcastle Island Marine Park. The inn provides a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available.

Exactly what we were looking for. A nice, clean, comfortable room located near downtown and the harbor for a reasonable price with parking. A few semi-related tips. Neck Point Park is about 15-20 mins away with incredible views of the ocean and potential to spot marine life (we just missed a pod of orcas). Also the Save on Food in the Nanaimo suburb was the best grocery store we visited in the island/Vancouver/Calgary if you are cooking your own meals.

    Beautiful apartment which was immaculate and had everything you could need for a comfortable stay. We only stayed one night for a stopover but it would definitely be ideal for a longer stay. Location was great - away from the noise of the city centre but still within walking distance to shops and restaurants. The hosts were extremely kind and helpful.

    I've stayed in many BnBs in my life, and this was one of the best experiences in my life. Super charming hosts, the suite was the cleanest suite I've ever witnessed. ♥️ Thanks again for having us. I would give a 1000000 points out of a 10 if there would be a way to do it. I hope I'll be back soon.

    You do have to remember that this is a Guesthouse not a hotel and that you are staying in someone's house. It is extremely clean and comfortable and quiet. Darlene, the owner, is delightful and bakes the most wonderful scones for breakfast with a variety of prepared fresh fruit and eggs, The bathrooms are clean and it was lovely to have a balcony to step out on in the en suite room. The no shoes in the house rule is sensible and she does provide slippers if needed.
