5 Stars
Ignore any and all bad reviews, the Bluebird motel was so clean, the bedding was clean, and the reviews complaining about noise I don’t understand as the white noise being generated by the AC was enough to be able to relax and sleep in peace. You get the bang for your buck. Check in process was great too, the woman was very kind as well. Very close to things to do in Nanaimo, great location. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

Kitchenette available including stove, fridge, microwave, sink, and all utensils you would need. They dont like late check-ins. Somethings were in need of repair, like door knobs. Cheaper priced for the area.

Clean sheets and appliances, unfortunately the smell of Pine Sol in the room was toxic. I had to open the windows to get fresh air. AC in the room too loud, and temp control was broken. The motel is minutes from the ferry terminal, the only reason we chose to book a room there.

Arrived at 1:30 in the morning. Key was left for us but had to wake owner up. She was great. Clean room and large for 5 people. Would have stayed longer and would book again if I was on Vancouver Island. Close to ferry terminal.
