Booked this hotel as it was close to the Memorial University Campus - about a 3 minute walk. I was delivering my daughter to university and the price was about 30% less than the chains. The rooms are small, but have wireless Internet and a bar fridge.

The beds are the most amazing aspect - great linens and the most incredible mattress, Serta Pillow Top Prefect Sleeper. I came home and bought one!

The pub next door has good food, but on the pricey side for what you get.

What was great about the Inn was that we could walk to the campus, were just down the road from the malls, and it offered a good night's rest for a reasonable price.

When we arrived, there was a mix up with the reservation, but they worked quickly and sorted it out - difficult to do when they were booked solid on the busiest weekend of the summer.

I would recommend this place and will stay here again.

Booked our reservations in July/11 for 2 nights stay in Sept./11. Upon arrival at 4pm we were told that our room was not ready yet. What happened to 3pm check in policy? Gave them the benefit of the doubt and went to get something to eat. Came back around 6pm and were told again that our room was still not ready. We have now been on the road for 20hrs. and are very tired. They then give us the keys to a room around back which was a "motel" room when I specifically requested a "hotel" upon booking. The room was small and dark and the bathroom was gross. We immediately looked for another hotel for the following night and canceled our 2nd night reservation with this Inn. There was no rate reduction or an apology from the staff during check out the next morning. Very unprofessional - they could not care less about customer satisfaction.

I was In St. John's on business and stayed at the Guv'nor Inn. I think it was the best night's sleep I ever had! The mattress was amazing... it was a Serta Pillow Top Perfect Sleeper. I took the liberty of checking.

If you stay here, and even a single person on your floor is loud, you will probably hear them in all the rooms. Its got paper thin walls and I spent my night without any sleep. Called the front desk thrice but they didnt do anything about the noise. I had to move to another hotel in the morning.
