The staff was very welcoming. It was clean but there was no room safe or bar refrig. The breakfast bar was not great. The food options were very limited and the staff were abrupt. The quiche gave me tummy pain and diarrhea 👎... beware.

Reception staff are outstanding, very helpful and knowledgeable. I do wish the room cleaning staff was more consistent and had a check list of items to replace / clean etc. it was different everyday! One day we had 6 towels! The next we had 2. Only one day they replaced the coffee pods! There should also be a small fridge in every room, we had to wait 3 days for one.

For what seems to be available in newfoundland this is one of your best bets, great location amazing restaurant and cafe inside but be aware the rooms are EXTRA small. Also i opted for the harbor view and while it was a beautiful view we could not keep blinds open to see the view because of people outdoor dining can see DIRECTLY into your room. Would not pay the extra fees for a harbor view that is unusable.
