What guests think

Travellers praise Downtown Executive Best View, Fireplaces, Apartment#3 for its spacious apartment, sweeping harbour views from the balcony, and a highly walkable location near downtown sights, with many noting easy street parking and responsive, helpful host communication.

Reviews consistently describe clean, well-equipped interiors and comfortable beds. However, the third-floor walk-up and surrounding hills can challenge those with mobility issues, and a few guests mention minor wear, an awkward door lock, or occasional noise from a neighbouring building. A reliable self-catering base for exploring St. John’s.

My wife and I visited St.John’s to see friends and family. The location of our place was great and served well (but I knew it would be since I had grown up nearby). The view was great and parking was not difficult at all even if it was street parking. We also took in a show by the Spirit of Newfoundland which was a short walk away and a nice bonus.

We loved staying at suite #3; fantastic view, lots of room, many little details such as French press coffee and well- equipped kitchen ; neat area of the city. Parking pass was nice to have too! Thank you!

Arrived late afternoon and were able to park in front of the apartment which was a bonus. The trek up three flights was a bit much but we knew that going in. Very spacious rooms. The hand held shower was the best. Well appointed with all the kitchen utensils needed. The views were fabulous with the vista of the harbor, Signal Hill and old town St. John's laid out in front of us. The one small issue was the operation of the stove top range. I've never used one before and there were no instructions; even google or you tube didn't help. Took some time, but I persevered and figured it out. All in all excellent experience.

This property is in an excellent location, within walking distance to many attractions, shops and restaurants - and the view is lovely from the deck! The bed and furniture are very comfortable and we had everything we needed for our stay. Check-in and out were very easy. We rented a car for a few days and it was always easy to find parking very close by.

A wonderful, charming apartment with great views of the Harbour and Signal Hill. The check in process was easy and though there were three flights of stairs, it wasn't a problem as we were prepared for that. The only advice which could have been clearer is which street to park on with the parking pass as we are not familiar with the Zone system in St. John's. Easy walking distance to The Rooms and downtown so once we parked, we didn't move the car! We would certainly stay there again.

The unit is quite large even though it is for only 2 people. Great location to walk to pretty much everything. But the best part is the private deck. I just could not get enough of the view. Im so spoiled by it, I'm not sure i could stay anywhere else.

Place was great nice and large. Close to lots of restaurant and sights. Place needs some TLC. We had a very hard time opening and closing our door to the room so we felt a bit unsafe with it. They definitely need to do some work on the door and lock.

Very much enjoyed my one-week stay, which was my first time in St John's after moving from out West. The place is exactly as pictured and described, and is very clean and cozy. Some of the spices and stuff provided in the kitchen could probably stand replacing, and having extra batteries available for the remotes might be an idea. But what do I know? It's the first time I've ever stayed in a place like this and, aside from those two minor complaints, I highly recommend it.

Notre appart était au 3e (pas d’ascenseur) avec une superbe vue sur St John’s et une très agréable terrasse. Propre, confortable, toutes les commodités, cuisine biien équipée. Tranquille, à proximité du centre-ville (a pieds), à quelques pas d’une boulangerie/café. Les photos reflètent bien l’appartement, mais il est encore mieux en réalité.

Great space in a great spot. It was clean, and comfortable. The view is great. The photos undersell the unit, its waaaaay brighter while you’re there. You’re a short walk to 90% of what you want to see, but just far enough away that you have a quiet sleep when you’re ready. I would stay again, and I would recommend.

We loved our stay here! It’s ideally situated in downtown St. John’s, pretty much right in the middle of everything I like to do and see when I am here. Killer view of the narrows from your own private balcony. Actually seemed more spacious in person than in the pics. Comfy bed, clean, all amenities provided. Hope to stay again!

We just returned from 7 nights over the Christmas holidays. It was a perfect location as we loved walking around the beautiful heritage homes nearby that were so festively decorated. It was a quick walk to Quidi Vidi where the fireworks were held earning evening and then we could see the fireworks at midnight from Signal Hill. Close to all the restaurants as well. Kathie was very responsive to any questions.

We stayed three nights and very much enjoyed our stay. The place is beautifully set up with lots of room plus such a wonderful view of the harbour. The kitchen have everything that we needed. I love to walk and found that I could easily walk to downtown, for groceries, and enjoy the streets. It took me about a half hour to walk to the Signal hill trail which is so incredible. It is an uphill climb from downtown but so worth it to have the fantastic view and lovely place
