I’m thinking of spending a day or two in the Loire Valley, and I’m stuck between Tours and Nantes, which is preferred and how long should I stay there?

Between those two, Nantes, totally. But it’s not in the Loire Valley.
You might have been confused because Nantes is on the Loire River.

Whoops, my mistake. Thanks!

How long do you think I should spend there?

We spent two days there, and probably would have stayed one more, but had to leave.
If you go, be sure to see the Machines on the Isle of Nantes, and take the navibus across the river to Trentemoult, which is a colorful artists’ colony.
