Coughing from excessive chlorine in the pool. Worst of it was stepping in feces on the bottom of the pool. Yes, sh*t in the pool! Took management 2 days after check out to call me back regarding my complaint. Manager was reluctant to give any compensation as complaint was made in the morning verses 10pm at night when the pool closed. I'm a Gold Level member of Marriott. This is the worst treatment I've ever had at a Marriott property in 20+ years of stays. Don't stay at this hotel!

I've stayed here before for work purposes and found it to be a great hotel, so when I was planning…read morea trip to the city, I figured this was a good bet. Check-in was easy through their app - I was able to check in before I even got to the hotel, so all I had to do was stop by the front desk and pick up my keys. The woman working the front desk that day - Sherry-Lynn - was amazing and one of the friendliest people I have ever met. She made a point of asking how my day had gone whenever I returned to the hotel after a day out in the city. Such a sweetheart! The room was clean and spacious, and the bed was one of the most comfortable hotel beds I've ever slept in. I made a couple of requests for the room through their app - extra pillows, that kind of thing - and they were followed to a T. I would recommend the Fairfield to anyone, and I will definitely be staying there again when I find myself planning another trip to the city!

The couple was able to buy out the entire place for just the wedding goers and the rooms themselves were very nice. The views are incredible and the fact there are animals is a fun addition. The wedding itself was beautiful, and the food was also great! The only downside of the location is that they do not have air conditioning, but that is normal for the area and they don't usually need it.

We heard about the Doctor's House from some friends in St. John's, and decided to spend a night on…read morethe way back to town from Port Rexton. It was originally built by a doctor and was converted to an inn about five years ago. It sits on 100 acres on the west shore of the Avalon Peninsula. It has a farm/petting zoo with sheep, horses and goats. I was charmed by the goats. In summertime and autumn the grounds are spectacular. It is set up as a perfect venue for weddings and has a small spa. There are no TVs in the rooms or a common room. It's not luxurious, but has a simple charm. Dinner was disappointing. Everything was a bit too sweet and not very complicated in terms of seasoning. Also , it was described as a five course dinner, but one course was an amuse and the other a small scoop of sorbet palate cleanser between the salad and main course. I hope the cuisine is a work in progress. The staff was very nice and eager to please.

But as we rushed off to the airport 3 hours later, we were wishing we had more time to spend at this beautiful place, and talking about all the things we'd like to do there the next time we visit. We started our morning with a tour of the truly excellent Interpretation Centre, which is the perfect size to get a great overview without being overwhelmed. The information is presented in a very accessible way, and there are plenty of things to touch and buttons to push to keep children engaged. We were also provided with some additional information by a Manuels River facilitator, Madison, who was very knowledgeable and great with our kids. She also provided us with a map and directions to set us up for our hike. The trails are well marked and well groomed and perfect for families - we even brought our stroller along. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking. But the highlight for me was searching for trilobite fossils in the shale beds - and actually finding (a small) one! Very unique experience, and my dinosaur-obsessed kids loved every moment.

It was conveniently about a 15 minute walk from the cruise ship dock.  Upon entering the Visitors center we were quickly greeted by a friendly staff member. They were able to quickly provide us with alot of useful information. They pointed out that some parts of the museum were free, and there was like 4 rooms that required a ticket. We decided to not get a ticket because we were on a limited time schedule. This is a must stop museum, you could spend hrs just admiring all the history and scenery inside and out. Make sure you go up to the observation decks as well. They do have conference rooms and a cafeteria. I will add more info later... @glampedlife
