"Personnel courtois, professionnel. Le service aux chambres est ordinaire. Nous sommes restés trois nuits et le ménage de la chambre était moyen. Le déjeuner est aussi ordinaire (muffin, gruau, yogourt, café thé). Ce qui est bien c'est l'emplacement. En plein centre-ville et le stationnement est gratuit. Je le recommande."

"It’s just really really old and therefore a bit dingy and crooked and carpet in entrance and stairs appear dirty. Room and bathroom in our king suite was very clean and roomy. Best bed out of 2 other hotels on our stay. Plaster and paint repair could help make it nicer. Staff was quick and attentive with simple requests. Window ac kept it cool and street noise at bay. Excellent location."

Cozy Two Bedroom Apartment in the heart of St. John's

Cozy Two Bedroom Apartment in the heart of St. John's

8/10 Good
"This two bedroom property is very comfortable and clean. It even has cable tv! The location is easily accessed from the TransCanada highway. Check-in to the apartment was simple and efficient. It does take about 20 minutes to drive into downtown St. John’s. That means you cannot walk to major attractions. So, if you are getting “screeched -in”, or dining, plan to take a ride share or taxi. There is on site parking, which is helpful. A working GPS is a must to navigate St. John’s “interesting” roads from the apartment. This new residential area is quiet at night: an advantage one would not have in the core. The apartment is generally well-stocked. Having a larger supply of eating utensils would be helpful or one is washing dishes/using the dishwasher a lot. Hint to new guests: one must close the dishwasher door very firmly in order to get it to start. The host, Victor, is very congenial and responsive. We would definitely recommend it to others."

"The Delta is a decent hotel to stay in in St John's. It's a little bit dated but the room was clean and comfortable. The pool needs an update and the showers had an issue with running cold. I also think the hotel could include shampoo and conditioner in the showers in the change rooms for the pool and gym. The breakfast buffet seams pricey at $30 however there was a really good variety and I think it's good value for the money. The location of this hotel is really convenient as well."
