Two nights in downtown.
The hotel is nice. Room was clean. Staff is friendly. Great location in downtown area. Close to many pubs and restaurants. Unfortunately, entrance into the hotel was frustrating, as I was left in the pouring rain with nobody answering my phone call (you have to call when you arrive so a staff member can unlock the entrance to the hotel). The TV is the size of a computer desktop monitor, which makes it difficult to watch unless you’re sitting directly in front of it. That said, I would stay again.

This is my second time staying here. The room was comfortable and the hotel is in a very convenient location. The room I stayed in had some minor, but unfinished damage repairs (unpainted drywall patches), which probably should have been completed before being available for use. Otherwise, I would stay again. Cheers.

The hotel is in a great location in downtown St. John's a quick 2 blocks from the harbor. We were there in mid-October so the tourist season was definitely winding down. Streets were less noisy. Easy walks from major sites, local stores, restaurants and bars. The room was basic. Bed was comfortable. Walls and doors are thin. Steps to rooms are many and luggage will need to be carried up - no elevator. We dropped our bags with them because we were early, and they carried our luggage to our room before we returned - very nice. The room and walls show wear. The window AC unit had been removed and was stashed in the small closet area. Suitable for our needs.
