Arrowsmith-Benson Hotellit

”Marla and Tom were very friendly. Property is very nice . My husband had a surprise at breakfast! Homemade Rice Pudding”

”Close to Nanimo Ferry. Really comfy bed. Bedroom seperate from living room was nice as my husband and I rarely go to bed at the same time. Walking distance to Tim Hortons and Safe on Foods. Cons, not that clean, dog food under edge of fridge. Not very nice bathroom. Very dated furniture. Would not use stove did not look safe. In the morning we were facing North East so it was so bright in the morning as curtains not big enough to cover whole window. Ok for only 1 night.”

”Needs updating”

”Loved our two night stay at this hotel! Friendly, helpful staff and an exceptionally clean room. Across from the motel is a boardwalk along the ocean channel. We strolled and enjoyed the boats and watched the seals. Will definitely stay again!”

”Clean room, excellent keyless / contact less check in check out”

”5 stars Aside from the bloodstains on the carpet and the 1 mouse we saw under the fridge, The place was pretty clean and felt pretty safe. The staff were very friendly. There were no bed bugs or cockroaches I figured there were enough spiders in the corners of the room to take care of all those pests, but did a double check just to be safe. The shower had great pressure. I mean it better cause it sounded like a bomb going off every time you turned it on. The hot water was great for long...

”People above were noisy and came on at midnight. Shower spread water everywhere. ”

”Quite area. Clean space. Nice to be stay away from Duncan.”

”Spartan/minimalist and dated accommodations, friendly staff, no attached restaurants, lounge, exercise, or pool... ...nothing like that. For a guy or couple needing simple accommodation, for a single night, this would probably suit most - would not recommend the same for single female travelers or extended stays. Due to its close proximity to downtown, the neighboring area remains a bit rough (street people) and staff lock the vehicle gate at the rear of the property each evening for good...

”A very friendly and enjoyable place to stay.”

”The room was barely clean and not clean behind things and the window is the kind that does not open. I would not stay there again.”

”My family and I had a good stay. My 5 year old loved the slides and my 2 year old loved the swimming pool area. The continental breakfast was a bonus and had good food selections. Well definitely comeback again.”

”No kitchen. The rooms are in the midst of renovations. Nothing is completely finished or ready for guests. So disappointing. Cancelled our reservation but did NOT get a refund for our stay. They said since we booked with Expedia we must deal with Expedia. Hopefully Expedia will refund our monies.”

”It was small but clean and cozy. We really appreciated the location, at walking distance from stores, activities and restaurants. We spend an afternoon by the lake on the share dock. It was great!”

”Such a slice of heaven this place. I will be staying here every time I come to the north part of the island”

”Our breakfast was delicious. Our host was lovely and so thoughtful. This was the third time I’ve stayed at this B&B. Highly recommend it.”

”It was good”

”Very clean comfortable beds. Our room was really big and nice. Simple, quick breakfast. We would stay again.”

”Nice view, staff are great”
