Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room had lots of character and a beautiful view of St John’s, the harbour and the ocean. The bed was comfortable and, despite the cold weather, we were very warm. The location was perfect for attending the Brier at Mary Brown’s Centre and exploring the city. We found easy street parking a few steps away (as long as we moved the car by noon). There was no daily service but everything we asked for was done very quickly.

Loved this place. So cute and homey. Super close to everything. We did not have access to a car so we walked everywhere including downtown, our hikes like deadman’s bay path and Signal hill, and also walked to Quidi Vidi. Also bed was super comfortable! Slept so good every night.
