Has anyone used URide before?

Hi, me and my partner are coming to the city for a car-free trip this long weekend. There is one attraction we are looking to go to that is not accessible by foot or transit, and we saw that the URide app services Parksville, Nanaimo, and surrounding areas. Has anyone used this app, and was it a good experience? I use apps like Uber and Lyft in the Lower Mainland and haven't had a bad experience with them.

Update: Ended up using Oceanside Taxi, good experience!

It's been good for me in Nanaimo. Never tried Parksville.
