THE LOVELY CAMBIE HOSTEL IN NANAIMO WHERE WE ATTEMPTED TO SLEEP

The one in Vancouver is much, much nicer.

We were lured by the low cost, but the place is so gross that I can't believe we decided to stay there. To begin with, the room was a windowless box, devoid of AC or even a fan. Fortunately it wasn't hot outside when we stayed there. The mattress was one of the worst we'd ever slept on, like sleeping directly on a box spring. The sheets had hair on them (to be fair, the bartender got us fresh sheets after we pointed this out). The bathroom floor was dirty. The toilet was leaky, so it alternately trickled and filled continuously, all night long. The lighting was dim. The kitchen was broken-down and dingy. And there was loud music till midnight. Really, the bartenders were as nice as could be, but they couldn't save this place from being disgusting and a really poor choice for even the budget-minded traveler. I hope others will see find your page and be forewarned about this place.; 12:06 AM
