Best Western Plus St. John's Airport Hotel and Suites
Parking lot was horrible. No room to park as cars were left there snowed in. Makes no sense to have guests not have anywhere to park. Parking lot was treacherous. Ice everywhere and not plowed due to vehicles being left. And the coffee maker was disgusting. Clearly hasn’t been cleaned in ages
