So I clearly had a misunderstanding with the owner of this establishment. I seemed to have left her with sour feelings. It seems i don't have the words to apologise but I guess you live and you learn. So my review... without bias for the good of the customers. I recommend this place to anyone who steps into Saint John for the first time. It's a great way to see the area without blowing your budget. It was a pleasant place to stay, the rooms have individual thermos stats and 2 bunk beds to choose from. Fleece blankets and sheets are available. Along with a fridge and various other amenities. It is a 5-10 minute walk to what seems to be the only Mall open on a Sunday. It's roughly the same distance to a bus stop and if you have any questions about the area they have spread catalogues about new brunswick and the bus routes in the lounge. There is a locker should you feel the need to lock away your valuables (you will need a lock however). Although, I didn't feel the need to as I had the room to myself during my stay and after a 50 hour flight I was greatful that she stayed up till 3am for me to check in.

Stayed a couple of nights here while relocating to Saint John in the beginning of July, 2017. The host was very accommodating and knowledgeable of Saint John history and attractions. Plenty of tourism material to read. The other guests were very nice, mature, quiet and respected my space and possessions. This was a great first place to stay while I got my barrings. I will forever be grateful for their hospitality.

The location of this place is excellent - so close to downtown (or uptown as they call it in Saint John) and a stone's throw from where maritime bus drops off. The proprietor is super nice and has a ton of information to share about Saint John and New Brunswick.. just ask! There are maps and city guides available, and be sure to ask for the self-guided walking tour brochure (all 3 are excellent). The property is currently under construction but I stayed in a lovely little apartment that was all finished and very cosy. I would definitely stay here again.
