Clean room and close to our family function we attend in Nanaimo. Thank you

Wesley, United States of America

The beds were very comfortable, and the unit was very spacious. The location is very accessible and a comfortable walking distance to downtown and the marina (about 20 minutes to either)

James, Canada

Kitchenette was a bonus, as I was there for 10 days & didn't have to eat at restaurants

John, Canada

It was rather clean and very pleasant. I really appreciated the staff, very polite and helpful. When we asked for a cooking pan (because we didn't know there was one under the stove), the owner went everywhere to find one for us!

Mike, France

There was so much room! Two full bedrooms and sitting room. Everything was clean

“Don't Stay at the Diplomat!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Queen Room with Two Queen Beds
- • Stayed 1 night
눉Old worn carpet, dirt along baseboards, bath tiles missing, no grab bars, no mat for bottom of slippery tub,no working alarm clocks, no wake up service, no smoke alarms, no toaster, dirt on walls. Most of all no one to help (language perhaps), but prompt in asking to be paid.
눇The bed was ok, not great; That did not make up for the appalling condition of the rest of the motel.
