No bath at for slippery shower, so I asked for one and it was brought. Next day it was removed and not replaced. Mattresses are old and need replacement. Continental breakfast is mediocre. And if you're unlucky enough to get a room on the third floor, you'll find no elevators in the building. For $139 per room per night, not worth it. In response to manager's reply: thank you for taking the time to reply. I tried to be fair in my review. However let whoever reads this review determine for themselves if a 3 floor walk up with a small room, an old mattress, a desk the size of a coffee table, at $139 per night is worth paying for. With the slippery shower and no bathmats, it's also dangerous. I called the lack of a bathmat to the desk clerk's attention once and it was brought. The next day it was gone with no replacement. The day after, the same. As for the breakfast, you are correct that there is variety. More variety than in a real continental breakfast. However the food quality was mediocre, the kitchen extremely cramped, the layout confusing, and the size of the dining room much too small to seat the guests.

    We stayed about six days here & the owners of the Inn (Kim & David) are very nice. One of them are…read morein every morning so we got to talk to a local everyday. That's one thing I really liked. This was our first time staying in a Bed & Breakfast. We had room 4 which was described as a regular room with queen size bed. The bed was more like a double & the bathroom is quite small but given this is a 130 year old Victorian house it's understandable. There's a ceiling fan & AC unit in the window to keep the room cool. Wifi & breakfast are included in the room cost which was totally reasonable. Chain hotels were asking for much more & don't even include breakfast nor were they close to downtown. Hubby & I enjoyed our stay at the Balmoral Inn. If we ever come back to St. John's we would stay here.

Only minutes easy walk from St. John's Convention Center and we are just two blocks away from the waterfront and we are surrounded by some of the most interesting architecture to be found in historic St. John's. Take a 10-minute walk to the West and you're in the center of shopping, dining, and St. John's George Street nightlife area. Take a 15-minute walk to the East and you are in a National Park with some of the best walking trails Canada's East coast has to offer.
