oh, where to start? the noise from the bulk fuel plant shattered my dreams of peace and tranquility. and then there's the 10 am checkout—the audacity! as someone who clearly deserves better, a complimentary gesture would have been nice. it could have been great—but alas, it was another run-of-the-mill experience.

would love to come back here some time.
The room was huge and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the kitchenette with a microwave, refrigerator, and all the kitchenware. The flat-screen TV was great, and the beds were super comfy! Plus, the spa facilities were a nice touch for relaxation.

Great place for couples looking for comfort
We had a lovely time staying here. The staff was super helpful and Marlene even pointed us to some great restaurants nearby which we wouldn't have found on our own.
It wasn't the cheapest option but for the quality, I'll take it.

A cozy stay by the ferry
The Buccaneer Inn provided us with a delightful experience, featuring a well-equipped room that fostered a true home-away-from-home feel. The warm hospitality from Marlene and Dave made our three-night stay exceptionally enjoyable.
However, exiting the parking lot was a bit tricky due to restricted sightlines, which required extra caution. Also, there was a bit of noise from the surrounding area that occasionally disrupted the peace.

The rooms incorporate local art and there's a unique visitors' guide with a Nanaimo Bar recipe, adding a personal touch to the stay. Plenty of space with well-maintained facilities and nice amenities like a wood-burning fireplace and a fully equipped kitchen allow for a comfortable experience.
Noise from a nearby bulk fuel plant can disturb your sleep, especially during the early morning and late night hours. Some rooms lack air conditioning, which can be a problem on hotter days, making it a bit less cozy than desired for $200 a night.

The remodeled garden level room offered a quiet escape, featuring good wifi and an inviting layout. The location was convenient for walking to the ferry dock and nearby dining options. The kitchenette was basic but functional, enhancing the stay. However, parking was limited, and some noise from the surrounding area disrupted the peace at times. Additionally, the lack of air conditioning might make warmer days uncomfortable.

A fine choice for a day tour in Nanaimo with excellent value for money. The king suite was spacious, making it feel like home. Consider earplugs due to road noise at night.
