Hotel rooms were nice, very clean and a good layout. Restaurant/lounge attached so meals were great. Only cons, no hot tub, pool is outdoor and had one breakfast where the eggs had chunks of onion, wasn't a fan. Other than that it was a great stay!

Better than expected

Everything was very good except for the pool. It needed cleaning so that was disappointing since we booked it because of an outdoor pool. The breakfast was amazing, room was clean and comfortable….dont understand the negative reviews.

Reasonably priced, nice attached pub with great food and entertainment which was good because they’re isn’t exactly the best food selection anywhere close, warm outdoor pool, great beds and pillows, I can’t think of anything bad to say. Next time your even thinking of staying in Nanaimo drive here and stay instead
