Great economy stay close to it all
Stayed here before, consistent little spot. Its older building lots of stairs but a more than fair price and overall worth it for sure on budget. Just read limitations like parking no front desk etc and its nice enough spot!

We love staying at this hotel, the building has historic charm with modern decor. We stayed in the queen suite which was very spacious and really quiet and the price was great This was our second stay in the past year, check in was a breeze and we will stay again when we come into St. John’s

Small room, but clean & comfortable
The room was small, but clean. Comfortable bed. We only had one small suitcase and a bag with us — otherwise it would have been a bit challenging getting up the stairs.

Air condition unit was loud and leaked water onto my suitcase. Toilet was plugged upon arrival. Shower needed a few minutes to heat up. Overall felt claustrophobic - not pleasant at all; albeit the staff were very helpful when available
