The Diplomat Motel is exactly what my party was looking for; a clean and comfortable overnight stay on the way to Tofino. What it is: a first rate budget motel; clean, well equiped, walking distance to very good eats, perfect for a night's stay before or after taking the ferry. What it is not; modern, new, and sparkling, with executive... More

It was clean and friendly. I had the family suite, which is definitely spacious for a family who needs a place to stay. Don't expect any frills because this is an economy motel, but for the price, the wi-fi was a bonus and the room was neat and clean.

It was within walking distance to some amazing restaurants we felt safe and it was reasonably priced, and yes quite considering its proximity to the road

This time, working in Nanaimo, I stayed in this venue for a night. Rates were totally reasonable- $70. - in between a great breakfast restaurant one minute to the south (Alice's) and a fantastic lunch and dinner spot (MGM) minutes to the north. Nothing fancy, but clean towels and sheets and quiet considering it is on the highway at the... More
