The location is good, the surroundings are nice, clean and well maintained. The accommodation was clean and comfortable. The owners Leon and Bob were very helpful and prepared welcome drinks and sweets for us.

There was a smell of some kind of factory or cleaner in the area from Nanaimo to Cedar. It's out of the owner's control, that's a fact. And - there could be cloth dish towels in the kitchen to wipe the dishes, I missed that.

Leon was such a nice host! There were some snacks in the kitchen, along with some drinks, and a water cooler. The products in the shower weren't just the cheapest available and they felt quite nice. The bed was very comfy. Even though it was a basement unit there was plenty of light.

The place was a little chilly which was fine because there were plenty of blankets around. The only thing was that all the sleeping pillows were quite high which wasn't the most comfortable.

Leon is a great host. We felt very comfortable at the place and had a feeling we’re at home. The place is spacious and with privacy between rooms.

The furnitures are aged, refrigerator is a bit old and had an annoying squeaking sound at the door.

The accomodation is beautiful, clean, spacious with windows allowing light and fresh air. Didnt feel like a basement. Inside provided everything that we needed including kitchen, kettle, coffee machine etc. The beautiful quiet location and perfect host made our stay perfect. Having access to laundry facilities was an added bonus. Ample easy parking.

Perfect for our needs.

Liked the air conditioning, clean, tv, pop & chocolates were a nice touch. Host friendly & accommodating.

Remote location in the country. A long ways from the airport. We had to be at the airport at 4:30 am.

Great communication from Leon prior to arriving and during our stay. Simple & informative check in. Surprised to have free unlimited coffee, some small sweet snacks & chocolate, unlimited water and 2 liters fizzy drinks, plus oil/spices for cooking. Everything was clean & comfortable in the double bedroom and bathroom, better facilities than we expected. Very spacious for 2 and it should still be spacious for 4 persons. We stayed 2 nights and used the kitchen to cook breakfast. Everything worked well, oven, toaster, microwave extractor fan etc and simple to operate We didn’t use the room with bunk beds. As mentioned in another review, this is not really in a basement. One side of the property (kitchen/living area) is at ground level and the other side (bedrooms) only 1 meter below ground level. Plenty of natural daylight through the windows to all rooms. This was probably the best value property we stayed in during our 18 days stay across Canada (even better value if we had been a group of 4). You probably need a car to stay here, it was 10 -15 minutes from the ferry terminal and 15-18 minutes drive to Nanaimo centre. It’s a super quiet peaceful location. No noise at all from above (the upper appartment level). An added bonus was one evening we drove in to the property to find a deer in the garden.

Nothing at all. Great value stay.

Friendly, helpful, businesslike, and explained expectations!

No snacks
