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.

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.

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.

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.

Good price if you don’t mind a 20 min walk. Had ample parking and room was small but enough for me, had a private bathroom but off a hallway which is fine.
Staff really nice I liked it and recommend, if want to save money by being further out.
