It was blizzarding and Inn at St. John saved us

Inn at St. John was the respite we needed from the horrible blizzard that harassed us that day. Inn at St. John was like a hot cup of tea on a blizzarding day. Would recommend to anyone in a blizzard.

Homey accommodations
Margery, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place is very good for the price. Nothing fancy, but parking is included instead of paying $20 per day like other locations. It's really close to the hospital which is why I have stayed here 3 different times.
Michelle, 2-night trip

friendly check in / room is just as shown online
Deborah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Charming and clean

I was impressed with the cleanliness, friendly staff, and appreciated that they don't charge extra for dogs. We were on the first floor with a king bed and jetted tub which were on the newer side, ,however the room was very generic compared to some of the more traditional and stately looking images online. Those must be rooms on the higher floors.
Varvara, 3-night trip

Unusual nice old hotel

This is a funky old hotel in excellent condition conveniently located for us. Staff are friendly and helpful, plenty of parking. Not a cookie cutter hotel if that's what you're looking for.

Dean, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Rooms nice and clean, loved the old Inn feel and look. Our rm 107 had a large entry way with table sitting area, nice bathroom with a jetted tub. Liked that our room was on the first floor. Good coffee station and light continental breakfast items included. Only draw back was limited parking out back of the Inn, if you miss that have to park across the way a little at the union station plaza.
Angela, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Inn has nice character and is very sweet! Everything you would need, very comfortable.

William, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good location. Great breakfasts. Not so close to downtown in the dead of winter so walking was not an option to historic Port area during Polar Vortex. But parking off season was not a problem so we simply drove everywhere.
