Great place to sleep at. Close to downtown. Don't expect any service, our TV didn't work and we called several times, but no help. But if you are ok taking care of yourself, it's really good. Good value for money.

3 days- close to everything- walking distance.. short drive to attractions- had private bathroom

I rate the hotel staff as "OK" because they are off-site and mostly unavailable except by telephone. That was OK with me because I did not need help from the staff. --- I was happy to find that the property is quite clean, maybe freshly painted, and outfitted with comfortable furniture. It has a laminate floor that looks like new. --- I didn't use the kitchen for anything except to place some things in the refrigerator to keep them cold. The refrigerator looks new. The kitchen has a dishwasher. --- It's a plus that this property has parking space available behind the building. Much of the time, it could fit three vehicles. I believe one or more of the owners or staff drive taxis because sometimes one taxi and sometimes two were parked there during the day. Parking also is available in front of the building but it's not exclusive to the property. Parking in the rest of the block is reserved for people who have permits. --- The Wi-Fi worked well and has reasonable speed. Whether speed measurements are accurate is debatable, but I found it measured at 5 Mbps download and 1.5 Mbps upload, perfectly adequate for my purposes. --- The property is a short walk from The Rooms, a large museum that is worth a day's visit, and at least an hour and a half, and from the Basilica of St. John's, a tourist attraction. --- A telephone in the common area is available for local calls. --- This was a good place to stay.

Bad experience. Door closed, call emercency no, learned that I have been transferred to ABBA INN on Queen's Road ?? again door locked & no enveloppe with the keys for the door and for the room, long wait outside on the street, lost my evening waiting for help, finally a russian person gave me a key for room 6 in ABBA INN.

We've stayed at a 'sister' guest house previously, and were very satisfied, so expected the same here. 131 Bond has good location (walking distance to everything downtown). However the rest was lousy. One bed was so lumpy it was unuseable; the 2nd bed was on a broken bedframe (which we were able to fix by taking off the mattress and put the frame back together; good thing we're ok with just one bed). No screens on windows, so opening up for fresh air wasn't a real option. Neither TV nor WiFi worked & texts to the cell # were never answered. Their were no bathroom supplies, including soap; we found a 2nd roll of TP in the kitchen. Room appeared presentable, but clearly hadn't been vacuumed in a while. Kitchen was marginally furnished with pots and dishes. Was not happy. And experienced first-hand of worse for a fellow traveller.
