6/10 Okay

Our experience here was during Canada Summer Games.Our room had AC,which we appreciated due to the hot weather.Very lovely room and bath. Absolutely empty "breakfast room",not even a water source. Because of heat,I walked barefoot throughout room.My feet were pitch black so guess floors were not washed in quite some time.No personal contact with a soul.

Clean, quiet and wonderful view. Loved it.
Erinlea, 2-night trip

We were pleasantly surprised to find out how conveniently placed the property was. The rooms were clean but some furniture was rather tired and cushions were grubby. We had a top and bottom sheet and a duvet but the duvet had no cover so we hoped it was washed between guests.
Penelope, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Very nice beautiful room and super convenient location. Parking can be very limited at times and there is a bit of noise for those who like it quiet.
Jeremy, 7-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Absolutely perfect there is nothing that I can say bad or discouraging about Abba. Perfect location I was able to walk everywhere in St. John’s from here. I would highly recommend this place to anyone if I was asked.

8/10 Good

We had a great stay in this lovely older building with lots of charm and character. The front room offered a partial view of the harbor—just a bit of pruning and it would be absolutely stunning. The space was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and we really appreciated the simple self check-in process. Staff were quick to respond via text, which made everything easy. There’s plenty of free street parking, and the location is convenient—just a short walk (uphill on the way back) from shops and restaurants downtown. While a Keurig-style coffee maker would be a nice touch, having the mini fridge was definitely appreciated. One note: there’s a park about a block away where we noticed some vagrant activity. Walking by felt a bit uncomfortable on a couple of occasions, but it didn’t impact our overall experience. Overall, a cozy, well-kept spot that made for a great visit! We loved Newfoundland!

6/10 Okay

We liked the outward appearance. First impression was fine. But inside, there were disappointments - small fridge was sitting on the floor so more difficult to access, no place to put the luggage. We were only there for two nights so didn’t want to unpack (so we didn’t use the cupboard), the bathroom was tight, parking instructions were not clear, the bed was fine (not sure how clean the bed cushions were).

Would definitely stay here again. Clean and close to everything you need. If you're looking for the true Newfoundland experience and don't want a fancy hotel....this is your place.
