Always fun to stay in a dorm room! 20 minute walk to the center of St. John’s. Easy to access public transportation. It was a bonus that the breakfast was included.

Only things that really sucked was the front entrance was closed because of Reno had to walk from another building to the other and then the elevator was broken had to carry suitcases up the stairs. But the rooms where really clean and it was a nice stay

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.

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!
