Very small room with tiny ensuite, all very clean with decent amenities. Ceiling fan & window that opens kept place a comfortable temperature for sleeping. Although shared kitchen had a large water bottle for filling a glass, individual bottles would be preferable for convenience. Fridge & freezer were convenient but didn’t use the kitchen or shared sitting area. No real room to sit other than on bed, even though 2 chairs & a small table were provided. Wasn’t there to hang out in room though so not a big deal. Mattress a little too soft for our liking and dipped in the centre, so should probably be replaced. Black out curtains on window is a plus, however the curtain rod is too small for the window allowing far too much light into the room the minute the sun rises. (Hallway light also seeps through the door edges.) Plenty of free parking spaces in behind the house & a second floor rear entrance is super convenient! Super location for exploring St John’s downtown by foot. Love the character & charm of a historic jelly bean home, making the experience more authentic and memorable. The positives far outweighed the negatives but fixing those features mentioned would surely improve the overall experience & rating. Loved St John’s and would definitely return to the city! Good communication from host through messaging but never laid eyes on host or any staff. Overall good place to stay, although very tiny.
