This spacious jellybean row house puts you just a couple of blocks from downtown restaurants & gift shops, plus it's closer to George Street than the popular Sheraton Hotel. Also steps from lovely Bannerman Park, which features plenty of grassy areas to lounge on, a splash pad, free swimming pool, modern playground, canteen, plus an ice skating loop in the winter. It's a best-of-both-worlds location, both quiet and close to the park, but only a 10-15 minute walk from all the downtown nightlife!
Accessibility note: There is a set of stairs to climb as soon as you open the front door, to get to the main level with kitchen/living room and one bedroom, then another flight to get to the three top-floor bedrooms.
If stairs are not a problem for your group, this space is a treat whether you're a solo traveller or a large group of family or friends. With lots of hot water in the 2 showers, large eating areas, and several distinct spaces to lounge in throughout 2 floors of the home, you will never feel too crowded, even at full capacity with 8 guests.
Also, a huge bonus is off-street parking! Perfect if you plan on having a rental car. Downtown parking in residential areas can be a headache, requiring special permits and no guarantees of parking close by. You, on the other hand, won't need to worry about that at all! Just pull right up to the door in the driveway at the end of your day of adventures. :)
Last but not least, there is local pizza, beer and gelato available right in your neighbourhood. Venice Pizza is a delicious treat, and corner stores in Newfoundland are allowed to sell beer, so look no further than the corner store called Needs on this block if you are a beer fan! Plus The Parlour is a locally-run gelato/coffee shop right across from beautiful Bannerman Park, a must on any neighbourhood stroll.
You will have access to the entire 2-floor apartment, including a private front-load washer and dryer, free wi-fi, and a smart TV featuring basic cable & Netflix, plus other apps for various types of sports, news & weather.
As a breakfast option, I provide a recipe in your house guide for apple cinnamon pancakes and all the ingredients to make them: pancake mix, cinnamon, fresh apples and syrup. I also provide a welcome basket with a few snacks to get you started before you pick up groceries. :)
I genuinely look forward to hosting you on your trip to Newfoundland if you'd like to stay in this lovely home in a lovely neighbourhood!
