Pros:

Propre et silencieuse
Charmant petit bar-terrasse face au port.

Cons:

Nous n'avons pas cessé de nous moucher dès que nous mettions les pieds dans la chambre. Certainement une réaction allergique à un produit de nettoyage.

A great place to to stay starting with a walk on the boardwalk.
Pros:

The room was spacious and clean. The beds comfortable. We were on the fourth floor obtainable by elevator. The parking garage was an extra $18 for the night but attached directly to the hotel so no walking outside late at night. The staff were very busy but still so friendly and informative. It was close to many restaurant's and many things go on in the are just not Sunday night. LOLO I would definitely stay again. The breakfast was amazing all one could ask for with a server such a noce way to start a vacation.

Cons:

It was all good.

If you want to be in the center of St John this is the place. If you want a good night rest go somewhere else.
Pros:

Great location, right on the harbor.

Cons:

The bed was very uncomfortable, the mattress sagged, and the down pillows gave no neck support. Combined they made getting a good nights sleep nearly impossible.

Pros:

Location was fantastic.
The room was very pretty
and we'll supplied, bed was quite comfortable. and the view was fabulous looking over the river.

Cons:

Small thing, but upon arrival the staff on the desk gave extremely poor directions for the parking and how to enter the hotel from the garage which was part of a mall area across the street from the hotel with an under ground access.
As well as she didn't explain to use the elevator to access the hotel room floors you needed to apply your room card to a access pad.
Small thing but unnecessary frustration upon arrival.

Good hotel from which to explore St John on foot.
Pros:

Location excellent to explore waterfront area on foot, close to restaurants, easy check-in and out. Harbor view from room window. Fun to watch the tide roar in and see the harbor front activity with tugs and container ships.

Cons:

It was all fine.

I would not stay there again.
Pros:

Very nice breakfast.

Cons:

We had to park in an underground garage across the street and pay $18 per night. It would have been nice to be notified of the extra charge ahead of time. The reception staff was not particularly friendly or helpful.

Je recommande cet établissement
Pros:

Nous avons apprécié la chambre spacieuse ( nous avons eu la place de mettre nos 3 valises sans devoir les enjamber) l'emplacement permet de visiter sans prendre la voiture, la piscine était parfaite des vestiaires jusqu'à la température de l'eau.

Cons:

Nous n'avons pas apprécié le parking payant
