Loved the property. Great view great location we would definitely use this property again. Several surprises required extensions to our stay and the property managers were excellent to deal with.
Absolutely lovely place to stay in St. John's. There are views of the harbor from the front of the condo and green hill and trees from the back. Everything we could need was thought of for every room and fully stocked. We walked everywhere into the downtown and up to Signal Hill. Having free parking in the driveway in front of the home was a bonus!
