Great atmosphere! Lots of stairs, so just be aware that most rooms are on the 3rd floor. Best dorm beds of any hostel I've ever stayed in. Common room is very pleasant.

Warm greetings at the front desk, comfortable queen bed, clean bathrooms, I had a window room on 2nd floor, was pretty much quiet the whole night,considering i had my window open all night. I would return and recommend this place.

Painted Turtle was my first stay in a hostel and I enjoyed it very much. We'd rented a private bedroom for two, so that may come into play with the quality we'd received. The bed was very comfy, and came with 4 pillows which were also nice. Two towels as well. Two washrooms just in the hallway that were good too. There is a nice open living area with the kitchen, and a separate tv room. Very friendly staff, and the location right downtown Nanaimo made for a great stay.
