    For the price, I was kind of expecting more. We stayed in St. John's at 4 star hotels that were significantly cheaper per night. There was no hot water in just the shower. Hot water everywhere else. So we had to turn the cold water on the faucet and full heat on the shower to take a somewhat warmer but still very frigid shower. By the time we were settled in the room to discover this, it was 930pm and I didn't want to bother the owner so late. We did inform an employee about this in the morning. The WiFi is very odd. I could connect but only via Facebook? It was different for sure. We did travel in the off season, so the restaurant was closed but everywhere we traveled of our St. John's it was like that as well. We couldn't find a lighter for the fire pit outside.

    Beautiful facility with great artwork on the walls. The staff was very easy to reach when needed. Great view of the cove as well. There was a nice seating area outside. Overall a nice place to stay. We will try it again in the peak season.

    Staffing was light. We didn't expect that although we certainly were there in the off season. However, the staff that were there were excellent.

    The breakfast was good - continental style. We had an evening meal (which was extra, of course) and the choices were limited (off season). The restaurant was closed to the public but they were able to accommodate us for which we were grateful. And the meal was delicious although somewhat pricey.

    Nothing. This was the best hotel stay on the entire trip (15 hotels/days) and easily one of the best hotel stays that I have ever had.

    I was impressed by the outdoor garden in the back and outdoor social/entertainment area when we first entered as it was pretty and not something that I had seen at any other hotel on this 15-day trip. The inside and outside of this hotel is really elegant and artistic and would be right at home in Montreal, Quebec City, Toronto, or the Muskokas. It is an aesthetically beautiful boutique hotel that has a hip lower town Quebec city gallery feel to its interior it but with an unmistakeable warmth that you rarely find anywhere in the world. I have travelled to 24 countries and extensively in Eastern Canada and can only think of a few hotels where the service was this great and made this much of an impression. What truly shines are the people that work there. Staff were beyond outstanding, wear multiple hats and you could see and truly feel that they work hard to make this a special and personable stay! This is a great hotel for anyone travelling as the staff went above and beyond to help our young family. Incredibly kind and helpful to us and our children. Easily the kindest staff we met on a 15-day journey and so helpful. We only stayed one night and immediately we felt like we were staying at a hotel belonging to good friends that we hadn't seen in a long time - the staff and locals were so welcoming and personable. An extremely kind local gentleman even offered and gave us a ride to the beach when my young son and I were walking around and exploring the town. The real jewel in the crown of this hotel is a lovely staff member named Colleen. Colleen was so patient and loving to listen to our children's stories, have warm and entertaining conversations with them and accomodate them/us whenever we had a question...and we had many. She is a true gem of a person and embodies the genuine warmth, personal connection and hospitality of Newfoundland. My kids are still talking about her! Thank you for helping us to end off this trip on a high note!

    Discolored water. It's been a long standing issue of the surrounding area for at least several years. They provide water to drink (2 bottles that get changed each day) . The water looks brownish due to the tannins. Eventually I mustered up the courage to shower in it and all was fine. They have a water cooler nearby to refill water but when I used it it was empty. The door sizings are a bit off (maybe due to the weather and expansion of the wood) but after putting extra pressure to close it it would make a loud slamming noise. Maybe noise dampeners for under the door would help due to the noise from the hallway.

    Staff was amazingly friendly. I told them I was going to check out early and they even made a breakfast basket. Location was convenient. The Inn had great food. Room was very clean and had hardwood floors.

    The meals were delicious and a gluten-free meal was possible - it would be nice to have gluten-free items at the breakfast as well.

    The hotel was spotless, up-to-date, and spacious. The staff made us feel so welcome, and did many extra little things for us. I especially want to thank you for the garden behind the hotel, where I enjoyed a couple of peaceful hours in an Adirondack chair, enjoying the view. What an exceptional experience! And of course, perfectly located for the Mistaken Point experience the next day.

    there was nothing not to like - after two days there the place felt like home due to the friendly ambience created by the staff and owner. Thank you John and crew!

    everything was great - the entire staff was friendly, even the owner asked us multiple times if we were satisfied, and everyone took time to chat with us as if we were old friends; the continental breakfast (included) was quite good; large room with fridge and coffee/tea facilities; extremely clean; rooms serviced daily; nice restaurant on site with tasty traditional Newfoundland fare; we got lucky and enjoyed free Saturday night entertainment during dinner; super quiet; at night; great place to stay if you plan on taking the Mistaken Point fossil hike and/or want to visit nearby Cape Race
