Had a one night stay, was good for that purpose. Hallway was a bit loud when others were moving around, but considering it’s a dorm area, it was expected. Breakfast included was perfect.

The dorm rooms are very basic with few amenities but this is a great option for the budget minded person. I don’t think I could do more than 2 nights as the beds are just ok.

Lovely place, the kindest staff I've ever met, I will definitely be staying there again but I wouldn't recommend staying with Expedia, they charged us twice and according to the staff at the university, this is not uncommon.

First off, you have to know what you are booking. This is a university dorm room with 2 twin beds and institional decor. There are shared bathrooms on each floor. This is not for all travellers. But if you're easy-breezy and just need a bed to sleep in while you explore St. John's, it's great!
