Older, but main bedroom was clean. Keurig coffee a nice touch. Bathroom could use some TLC, light fixtures updated. But for overnight the price was right.

A gem in the downtown section of Nanaimo. Unless you have road side accommodation it's very quiet and clean. Helpful front desk and close to ferry and banks, etc.
