The cost was great; all amenities you would need were included. Good restaurants down the street and easy transit to downtown, walking distance to Nanaimo station, and bus stops by the location. Main living area was really clean and comfortable to sleep in.
This basement apartment is near a busy road, but it was very quiet. Our host was quick to respond to our messages, and arranged to be at the apartment so he could orient us and give us the key. The kitchen was well supplied with basic equipment for making simple meals. The laundry detergent, clothes washer and dryer in the unit came in handy. Within a 10-minute walk, we bought a bus pass, found a friendly Catholic parish, and ate at Asian food, including great Vietnamese sandwiches. The attached photo is from one of our walks to the sandwich shop.
