Raymond, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very basic room

Owner of the motel kept calling me to find out my check in time the day of my arrival (very stressful and annoying) This motel was kind of close to downtown Nanaimo (20 minutes walk through a rough neighborhood). Kinda sketchy area, with homeless people searching for cans on the property. Very basic room, with a bathroom that was not super clean. We stayed for 2 nights with our child, no fresh towels and our trash cans were overflowing.

The first morning my girlfriend and daughter found a bed bug on the sheet of the bed. Also, a few chips fell on the ground the night before and there was a giant pile of ants swarming said chip....disgusting. We brought it to their attention, they refunded us our 2nd ngiht and we switched hotels
