I really appreciated being able to stay in a low cost, beautiful, clean room with a private bath at the Inn at St John. The mattress wasn't anything to write home about, but it was comfortable enough for one night. This boutique hotel felt very welcoming and like home in a way I don't typically feel in big chain hotels

Overall: just okay. Nothing special.
Staff gets 5 stars. Hotel is in massive need of renovation. Walls are thin, can hear people above, below, and next to you. Not much temperature control. A/C was not working, only a single knob with an in-wall heat fan. Has so much potential, but falling short. Vent in bathroom ceiling hanging down. Light fixtures not working. Wallpaper peeling in spots. Carpet looks to be 100 years old. Some of the furniture (like bathroom sink and tub) appear to be low quality, builder-quality type fixtures. Very out of place amid the potential of old-world beauty/architecture. Breakfast was about what you'd expect except that they ran out of stuff over the course of the stay, like cream cheese and apple juice.
