We stayed at the Days Inn for 5 nights over Christmas 2011, and overall found this hotel met our needs well. We had a family bunk room, which was great as we have two kids, but we would've appreciated a door between our bedroom and theirs. The bathroom was tiny and the rooms themselves small, but adequate if you were... More

My mother and I went up there for a girls trip out of town. There was a snow storm so I didn't know if we would be able to make it. I called and the manager Paul answered the phone and was very polite. He told me if we couldn't make it tonight he would move our reservation forward a... More

We rented two rooms for work done in Nanaimo. The std queen size room was ok but the larger suite we rented for two of was quite poor. The carpet was badly stained, the safety chain on the door was not there, the door seemed to have been broken into and the shower was not clean enough to use. Area... More

Nice girl at check it, but it went down from there. The hotel is non-smoking (a good thing) but it needs a makeover. The Hall and room carpets were quite dirty, room was OK but smelled a bit, furnishings were fairly new but cheap, new flat screen TV with quite a few channels, only one ice and pop/chit machine and...

We had a lovely large room with harbour view and it was clean and very comfortable. The girl at the front desk wasn't in a good mood but that was her problem. The restaurant has good food and we enjoyed a tasty dinner and breakfast. I telephoned the desk when I discovered that we had no facial tissue in the... More

Thank you for taking the time to review the hotel, I appreciate the honest feedback. I will discuss your comments with the staff at the the front desk, both in terms of attitude and training. (The hotel does provide facial tissue in all guestrooms, however with house-keepin staff leaving at 4pm, extra supplies should have been brought to the Front... More

We arrived past midnight and were off around 5am to catch the ferry. Rooms were clean and looked like they'd had a recent upgrade. Beds were comfortable, showers were hot and had good pressure. The only I found annoying was the check-in guy, he was painfully slow, and it was like he was lonely, needing us to stay and talk.... More

We stayed here the night before our ferry ride back to the mainland. It did serve our needs as a basic place to spend the night, however the hotel seem a little sketchy. We had a room with 2 beds facing the harbour. The view was nice! The room was dated as was the hotel. We did have a good... More

We recently stayed at the Days Inn for a Softball Tournament. You don't expect too much and as it was also the weekend for the Bath-tub races there weren't many hotels to choose from. It's pretty gross. The hotel sign is on the ground of the parking lot. There's brown streaks on the outside walls. The Emergency Exit area at... More
