The inn is a historic building that is very unique. There is a code to get in and the keys are left taped to the Room door. There is no elevator, so if you have large bags or suitcases, you will need to be able to carry them up the steep winding staircase. There is a shared bathroom on each floor. It is clean, but shows the age of the building. Location is ideal for visiting George Street.

This very old property has always been a lodging house. The renovation is tasteful and beautiful. We were very comfortable. The area is rough - but it is right in the middle of the famous George and Water street. You can walk to the Battery District and view the harbour from a height. Parking is easily handled by a municipal building across the street. We stayed for four nights and were surprised at how inexpensive it was.

Overall it was as described and what I expected. Except for the strong damp smell of mold. It did not feel healthy to be in the room at the top floor. There is an issue that must be addressed.

This is a very old building and the rooms could use some TLC. The stairwell leans quite a bit too, which adds character if nothing else. I also did not realize the bathroom was going to be shared, which should be highlighted in the descriptions. If you don't mind the old boarding house feel, its very close to all the food and entertainment.

The location is excellent. Walking distance to harbour, pubs, restaurants, shops and the metro overnight parking lot that is across the street. The hotel is unique as it is located in an old building with narrow staircases, etc and the bedrooms which are a combination of old and modern, are very comfortable.

It was a lovely accomodation, really close to everything in St. John's. The street below can get a bit loud at night but having the a/c on we didn't notice it much.
