9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (136)
"I am in BC for work and had to stay over the weekend so I took the ferry from Horseshoe Inlet to Nanaimo. The ferry is easy and an enjoyable ride. The Savvy Seagull was a great place to stay. Very clean and the fireplace made it feel very comfortable in early Spring. Ray was very helpful and accommodating to my late check in. Thanks for everything!"

"Great spacious property with a great full kitchen. Teen loved pool table. Cleaning job wasn’t that thorough. Fridge had not been wiped out after last guests and the cupboard handles and hoodfan etc were kinda gross. I had to give the fridge and kitchen a good wipe before I could unload but otherwise the place was nice. Comfy beds. The deck floor needs a good power wash or something but wasn’t too bothered by that."
