Sandman Signature St. John's Hotel
The heater/air conditioner would make a weird rattling noise whenever it started and would quiet down after a couple minutes. It was a little bit startling a couple times an hour. Forgot to mention it to staff so 'My bad' on that.

Alt Hotel St. John's
Clean and modern and well located. Bed is comfy and staff friendly! Shower could have been hotter but was told after there was a button you hit to make it hotter. Eco friendly bath products, shower cap, no body moisturizer or floss. Not fussy on the neepresso. No weird sounds or smells. I’ll stay ...
