The unit is big, clean, easy access from the highway. There is a big living room with a sofa bed on top of a queen side bed in the bedroom, two TVs in the whole unit. The room is at the back end of the unit. Can't hear any noise from the highway even though it is right next to it. It is vey close to the BC ferry terminal. Close to downtown Nanaimo. There is an induction stove top, micro wave, toaster, water boiler and dinnerware set in the unit. The motel deserves more than a 2 stars rating.

The Diplomat was cheap and convenient. We knew it was a motel and had motel expectations, but we were surprised to see the common area in our room (101) to be so big. I would have liked it if there was a cooling system or air conditioning unit in the bedrooms, but we were patient and let Mother Nature cool off our room as the sun went down. All in all, it was a one-night stay and it was surprisingly good for motel standards! No complaints!
