Everything about 40 Livyers Loop was unbelievable, from the very friendly & helpful staff, to the extremely comfortable bed & mattress. The best 3-nights sleep I've experienced in years. It was recharging; and if I ever need a place in St John's to rest, I will try them again.

This was a simple dorm room with a shower and a bathroom. Common area had a fridge and microwave. It was perfect for me. I just needed a place to sleep while I was visiting my daughter. A four day stay was $400 less than the cheapest hotel.

It was perfect for a friend's trip or dad and son trip since you each get a small private room. I loved my stay there and breakfast was included. The staff from Kenya was super friendly!

The residence hotel is chiefly for visiting academics, though I saw quite a few elderly visitors or others. The upside is that it's convenient, being on campus, the staff is friendly, the WiFi is good, and there is breakfast with some packages. The downside is that the rooms are pretty spartan; it's an upgraded dorm room. This is decent accommodation, but it could be better value.

I stayed here with my wife when we came to my son’s convocation at the university. The rooms are student dormitory rooms. They Are fine. My wife was disappointed that they weren’t en suite. But it is what it is I knew what they were when I booked them so. Very convenient for convocation.

Avoid!! No air conditioning in summer

It was bad , no air conditioning inside the rooms, the breakfast was pathetic everything that they served in breakfast was from Costco. The washroom was another sad experience no exhaust and slow flush . Overall a very bad experience. It’s cheap and it ends there.

We didn’t know Universities were available to rent rooms for summer. It was a pleasure to get acquainted with Memorial University for a few days. The Continental breakfast made our morning easier. Doing laundry on-site was very convenient and inexpensive. Laundry pods @ dryer sheets supplied.
