We did not get the room we booked and payed for. When we did get into this room the A/C did not work at all. Was a Sauna in the room. No refund, nor any compensation for one of our worst nights ever!

Prefect vacation

Continental breakfast could include cereal and bagels. For a 7 day stay muffins were getting boring and instant oatmeal in warm weather is not overly appealing. Our bed was very comfortable. A feather top on the mattress I think!

Quaint and a nice break from the traditional box brand chains. Has a rustic 1980s feel with splashes of luxury added in. I would stay here again when in St. John's, no question.
