Parking was on street, and a parking permit was provided. The house was spotless, and absolutely stuffed with antiques and memorabilia! I could have spent all day marveling at the decor

Best, most unique stay in St. John’s!

This is a must stay in St. John’s! It was such an interesting place and felt very homey. The owner, Bill, is very approachable and kind. The building has a very interesting history. It was so cool to stay in this Victorian styled home! It is walking distance to downtown, the rooms, and Signal Hill! Great location. Would 100% recommend this to people seeking to stay in a place with historic significance and homey feel!

The owner was very genuine and welcoming, I enjoyed the sailor motif and collected items in the room I stayed. There was not air conditioning but a fan was enough to keep me comfortable there even in the summer.
