The host was fabulous - quick to respond, was incredibly helpful and generous - the place is in a super ideal location - easy to get to all the places downtown by foot and a great hike to signal hill all accessible - I would definitely recommend this place and stay there again - Thank you
I arrived late in the evening and didn't have access to WiFi so getting in was a challenge until I was able to get a connection. Note to self, write it down or print out the details.It was great to have a washer and dryer since my luggage didn't make it on my flight. The only downside was that I lost an earring in the bathroom sink because there was no drain cover
PROs: Roomy one bedroom suite on second floor with full kitchen, washer/dryer, etc. that is nicely decorated. Less than 10 minute walk to main downtown street. Located in jelly bean district. Very private - we heard footsteps above us but never saw anyone. Parking included which is on the street but within half a block; most of the time we parked literally right out front. CONs: No air conditioning. Has new windows which open and can get cross breeze but it can get very hot. (One window AC unit would do the whole unit.) Finishing leaves a little to be desired, e.g., bathroom floor boards have large gaps, boards for towel rack shows nails, fridge wobbles when you open the door. Not enough to dissuade us from renting it again, just needs a little TLC (not an inexperienced DIYer) to be really nice. TV is small and attached to wall on other side of room from couch.Summary: Would definitely rent again for the price, location, and size.
We had an absolutely wonderful time staying here! The unit was clean and cozy and an easy walk (if you're okay with hills, but that's all of downtown) to shops and restaurants on the water and further up the hill. We rented a car and parking was easy with the visitor pass. Would absolutely stay here again next time I'm in St. John's.
My Mom and I stayed at Kathi's apartment last week. We were very pleased with how clean and easy it was to settle in and feel at home. Cutely decorated and in a great walkable area. It is exactly how it is shown in the pictures, which always worries me when booking. Highly recommend!!
Property had a nice feel with the decor. Great view. Perfect distance to downtown for walking. Parking was always available and convenient. Also, close to some nice bakeries and park. Nice comfortable bed. It was pretty quiet considering the location and the other tenants.
This apartment is quaint and clean. It gives you the real Newfoundland feel. It is perfectly located to be able to enjoy downtown and the harbor. My only complaint would be that the host is not very responsive to emails or text messages.
A great find, spacious, very comfortably and tastefully decorated and equipped. Perfect location for walking to restaurants, shops and the waterfront but a few blocks up providing a quiet and restful setting, near Bannerman Park. The deck on the top floor is a delight for watching sunrise and sunset over the harbour. We highly recommend this spot.
