Beau séjour de 4 jours à St John’s. Très belles visites. Garderons in beau souvenir de la ville et des environs
Pros:

Très bien situé, sécuritaire
Lit bien confortable

Cons:

Tapis dans la chambre. Ça fait plus présence d acariens et plus sec
Le déjeuner avec muffins très sucrés plus style gâteau . Manquerait pain et grille pain et confiture. Croissants avec rien pour les tartiner, ça fait sec à avaler. Heureusement, j avais mes céréales et mon lait.

great staff!
Cons:

The neighbours were incredibly noisy with their early check out - even left their alarm screaming after they left. Not much you can do but an irritant as they got us up very early

Great stay
Pros:

The location is fabulous, it was very quiet in the hotel. Parking was easy to find a spot, it was very clean, and the staff are great.
Missed out on breakfast because on weekends it's at 8am not 7am. I used the jacuzzi tub and was so happy to have it after a 4 hr drive.

Cons:

The pillows are flat and felt a bit lumpy.

Getting a bit dated. Fireplace did not work. Upon
