We were in Saint John for two nights during a New Brunswick road trip. Our room was spotlessly clean and large, with dual aspects over the city.We got parked no problem in front of the hotel and we were told there is additional parking in the basement. There was a good choice of hot and cold items at the self-serve breakfast. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. We walked into Saint John which took about 20 minutes. I would certainly recommend this hotel.
