I don’t usually write reviews but this hotel deserved one. The hotel was super clean, comfy and easy to find. The owner/manager was very accommodating to our after hours check in and was such a pleasant person to deal with. I highly recommend this place and will be back.

Needed a night short noticed and Harbour Light In was it. Easy check in, friendly service. 2.5 star accommodations, bed was clean and comfy. I would have slept in, but the road noise was a bit much.
Clifford, 1-night trip

Very friendly and helpful staff. Our room was comfortable and had good sound proofing considering the TransCanada noise outside. Easy access to the ferries. Will stay here any time we travel through Nanaimo.

Maybe just an improvement with the wifi but it might be coz its an island too. Even using our data is slower. Staff is really helpful. Bonus it has a microwave that even the bigger hotels dont have.
