Nicely appointed. Rooms were clean and comfortable. But I have two issues: first, very little work space in the bathroom. For two people ir was a struggle we ended up basically working out of our luggage. Second, the closet hanger rod was mounted facing front, attached to the back wall. So all clothes were basically stacked facing front. No excuse for this, there was plenty of room to mount normally (sideways). Drove us nuts.

The ALT Hotel in St. John's Newfoundland is a very nice, very modern hotel. The staff were extremely accommodating. The location is excellent - right on the harbour with interesting views, an easy walk along Water Street to restaurants and local shops. Our only negative was the bed. It is a personal preference, but we found the bed and pillows too soft for our comfort.
