Felt old and warn down. "Maintenance Required" light/message was on, which blocked the use of cruise control. Tire had a leak, which we had to hunt down a place to get air to fill it back up. I requested compensation for the inadequate quality of this vehicle. They agreed if was not good and repeatedly (every message included) said how important quality is, but only provided a very small refund to me. 5% of the cost of the rental, not including the repairs I was charged for, which I'm uncertain I was at fault for given the quality of this car. They clearly did not ensure I was provided a vehicle is tip top shape. First car rental that was much worse then my vehicles back home. I'll never rent from Avis again.

I can't say enough about the wonderful service at this Avis location. I had troubles with my air…read morebooking and called the main Avis line to let them know I'd be arriving early the next morning instead of late night. The counter closes at 2am so I knew I would miss my pick up. The 800 line told me they could not adjust my reservation because they were sold out of cars. I explained I was not cancelling, just picking up late, but that made no difference. A bit later in the day I decided to try and call the location at St John's directly, which I did. When I called I spoke with Kelly and she assured me that they would have a car for me the next morning and not to worry, what a relief! My flight arrived at 3am and low and behold, there was a young lady at the Avis counter checking in another group! Evidentially they were driving far and needed their car that night so the young lady chose to stay the extra hour and help them. I introduced myself and she immediately said, we were expecting you in the morning but I'm happy to help you now. Wow!!! She checked me in, and I also might add they had booked me as an arrival into the wrong airport so she had to adjust that, adjusted my rate, and gave me a nicer car. I've read a lot of negative rental car reviews from St John's, so I really felt I needed to share my wonderful experience. Thanks Avis St John's for helping to make my stay so wonderful:)

Please disregard this review! Wrong establishment. Should have been for Gower House at 180 Gower…read moreSt.I had booked this bed and breakfast way back in November for a 4 day June stay following a cruise in Canadian waters. I took the non refundable booking, never expecting a worldwide pandemic to hit. Although NO tourists from outside the Atlantic provinces were allowed to stay in hotels, this establishment still billed me the full amount for 4 nights and refused to provide a refund based on the fact that they could not legally provide the service they were charging me for. VERY Dishonest. DO not book this establishment. They obviously are too inflexible to provide a good stay. Also found out the "breakfast" part of the B&B is continental style left in a common room. Not what I would expect from a true B&B

MAN drake was right when he said the prettiest girls in the world are in toronto but obv this is st johns so they even finer fr. the iso protocol was straight up sacred. any time one of the bros needed some private time in the room we yell ISO at the top of our lungs n everybody bounce. we was marchin the hallways like a buncha idiots doin conga lines past normies n families. high fivin randoms while security started learnin all our names. respect the iso boys. but the real goat moment was that janitors closet saga. we was deep in the sauce n one of the two mans said nah do not disturb aint enough we need a fortress. so we found the janitors closet on some floor. mops buckets clean towels we turned that shit into vip lounge instant. and get this. while we was in the closet we found the janitors secret stash. THE HUGE BUZZ BALLS of every flavor stacked up like treasure. that maintenece guy showed up right then. we just handed him one of his own big buzz balls n said team buildin bro. he took a sip said godspeed n dipped. absolute legend. thats where we got all our buzz balls from fr. we only had buzz balls the whole trip after that. thats the kinda vibe ramada lets happen. there was even some random 10 year old that showed up with tweeze lookin all lost later on. we just gave him a high five n told him to stay in the iso vibe. lil bro was part of the squad for a minute. we never left the buildin. room service was our homies. we paid em back with trash dance moves n buzz ball compliments. the cleanin crew at this ramada deserve medals or therapy or both. we made new stains new smells new levels of what the hell happened here. to the ramada in saint johns newfoundland thank u for not banin us for life yet. u let a pack of animals turn ur spot into the greatest dumb reality show ever. the two mans salute u. the huzz that survived are legends n the bros still yell iso daily. if u a normal boring person wantin quiet n views maybe go somewhere else. but if u wanna make core memories get sauced on buzz balls perfect the iso drill n end up havin wild stories u gotta book this place right now. this hotel didnt just host us it got us fr. 5 STARS NO NOTES WOULD ISO IN THE RAMADA JANITORS CLOSET AGAIN

For just…read more$55 (adult) for two days, you get driven from Downtown to all the key tourist destinations like Signal Hill, the Geo Centre, Quidi Vidi, The Rooms, and Cape Spear Lighthouse. You can hop on and hop off at any point. They make a stop at each of these locations each hour until around 3 pm each day (check their schedule on their site or grab a pamphlet at their booth). You'll find their first pickup stop right in front of the Alt Hotel and that's where you can also buy a ticket. We stumbled across them while walking by, initially considering Ubering to our destinations, but after comparing the prices, this seemed worthwhile. For reference, an Uber ride to Cape Spear from Downtown is $40 one way, so it seems like a no-brainer to use this service for a couple or small group, especially if you're not using a rental car. The driver also acts as a tour guide while driving across town, providing a bit of history. Coincidentally, Bobby was our driver both days; each time we hopped on, it was him, and he was friendly and added to the enjoyment of our ride to the destination.
