Corner Brook's BEST Kept Secret: Quality Inn Review (You WON'T Believe This!) - A Messy, Honest Take

Alright, listen up, because I'm about to spill the beans on a place that's practically a cornerstone of Corner Brook, Newfoundland – the Quality Inn. And yeah, the title's a bit dramatic, but honestly, this place is way better than I expected. Let’s be real, sometimes "Quality Inn" just whispers "road trip pit stop," not "destination getaway." But this Quality Inn? It's got some serious charm, some quirks… and some things they could definitely amp up. Buckle up, buttercups, because we're diving in.

First Impressions (and the Shockingly Easy Check-In):

Okay, picture this: I'm hauling in, tired from the drive, rain lashing against the windows. The lobby? Surprisingly… well-lit. And CLEAN. Not just cleaned, like, properly sanitized. This is where the Professional-grade sanitizing services really shone. And because of the Contactless check-in/out, I was in my room in under five minutes. Boom. Instant good vibes. They had Hand sanitizer everywhere too, which, in these times? Huge plus.

Accessibility: A Mixed Bag (But Mostly Good!)

Now, my knee-jerk thought was, "Oh boy, accessibility in a Quality Inn?" But I was pleasantly surprised. The Elevator was a lifesaver, and the common areas seemed pretty navigable. I didn't explicitly check for accessible rooms, but the general layout felt considerate – wide hallways, easy access to the Restaurants (more on those later!), etc. The Facilities for disabled guests are certainly a consideration to check upon booking.

Rooms: Cozy Comfort, with a Few Hiccups (and an Awful Alarm Clock - I swear the Alarm clock was from the Jurassic era!)

My room? Decently sized. The Bed was comfy – and the Extra long bed was a huge bonus. The Blackout curtains were a godsend, helping me sleep like a log after a long drive. Daily housekeeping kept things tidy, and the Free Wi-Fi? Solid. I could stream movies without buffering, which is a win in my book. The Coffee/tea maker was a lifesaver in the mornings, and the Refrigerator kept my beverages cold.

But here's the real talk: that Alarm clock was atrocious. Seriously, I think it was older than some of the staff. And the Bathrobes? Missing unfortunately, which could make a difference for some. But overall, it was a perfectly acceptable and comfortable place to rest.

Internet, Internet, and More Internet! (With a LAN Surprise!):

Okay, this is where the Quality Inn really shines. Free Wi-Fi in all rooms!, a rarity sometimes, but it worked brilliantly. I mean, Internet access – wireless, Internet, Internet access – LAN (yes, a LAN connection! In 2024! Who knew?!), Internet services… they're covering all the bases here. And, just in case, they also have Wi-Fi for special events too!

Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: A Culinary Adventure? (Or Just Convenient?)

Alright, this is where things get… interesting. There's a Restaurant on-site. More specifically is the A la carte in restaurant service and Buffet in restaurant (if it's open - they are pretty good at the Breakfast [buffet]) and they offer Breakfast service too. The Coffee/tea in restaurant keeps you going throughout the day.

The food was…fine. Not gourmet, but perfectly acceptable after a long day. Room service [24-hour] is a huge win, especially for those late-night cravings. There's a Bar too, a very serviceable place to grab a drink. They have Poolside bar too. And if you're there, and it's a special event? They can serve Coffee in restaurant or Tea in restaurant.

Things to Do (and Ways to Relax): A Bit Limited, But Hey… It's Corner Brook!

Let's be honest, you're not coming to the Quality Inn for a spa day. While they offer a Gym/fitness centre, Swimming pool and Sauna, it’s not exactly a luxurious retreat. They also provide a Fitness center. The Steamroom and the Swimming pool [outdoor] seem to be missing, the Pool with view is not there either.

Cleanliness and Safety: Feeling Safe (Big Time!)

This is where the Quality Inn truly excels. The Anti-viral cleaning products are evident. Daily disinfection in common areas, Hand sanitizer dispensers everywhere, and staff trained in safety protocols? Makes you feel safe and looked after. They also had the Room sanitization opt-out available and Rooms sanitized between stays too. The First aid kit is also available just in case.

Oh, and the Front desk [24-hour]. Which adds an extra layer of comfort.

For the Kids (and the Babysitters Out There):

They are Family/child friendly which is a plus! But there is no Kids facilities or a Babysitting service that I could see.

Services and Conveniences: The Little Things That Matter!

• Air conditioning in public area and in rooms.
• Audio-visual equipment for special events, but don't quote me on that.
• Business facilities.
• Cash withdrawal
• Convenience store
• Elevator (yay for the weary traveler).
• Dry cleaning.
• Facilities for disabled guests.
• Invoice provided.
• Ironing service.
• Laundry service.
• Luggage storage.
• Meeting/banquet facilities.
• On-site event hosting.
• Safety deposit boxes.
• Smoking area.
• Terrace.

Getting Around: Easy Peasy!

• Airport transfer. Car park [free of charge]. Car park [on-site] and Taxi service. So, you can do it all, whatever you need.

So, Would I Go Back? (The Verdict!)

Look, the Quality Inn in Corner Brook isn't perfect. But it's a solid choice. It's clean, comfortable, convenient and has a good range of services. Is it glamorous? No. But for the price, the location, and the overall experience, it's a hidden gem.

My Quirky Observation: The staff were genuinely friendly and helpful. They actually seemed to care. It was refreshing.

My Emotional Reaction: A mix of relief and pleasant surprise. I went in expecting "meh," and I left feeling pleasantly content.

The Messy Honest Truth: They could definitely upgrade the alarm clocks. And beef-up the spa-like amenities. But overall? A thumbs up from me.

Okay, buckle up, buttercup, because planning a trip to Corner Brook, Newfoundland, at the Quality Inn? Well, that's a story waiting to be written. Prepare for a schedule that’s less “perfect Instagram feed” and more "chaotic, delicious, slightly embarrassing adventure."

Corner Brook Caper: A Newfoundland Newbie’s Narrative (aka, My Messy Itinerary)

Day 1: Arrival, Bewilderment, and Bellying Up

• 1:00 PM – "Landing the Plane" (aka, trying not to throw up on the puddle-jumper): Okay, so I'm not a great flyer. Small plane, bumpy landing, I'm clutching my travel sickness wristbands like they're my lifeline. The view though? Unbelievable. Green, glorious, sprawling. Makes the churning stomach slightly worth it.
• 2:30 PM – Quality Inn Check-In – A Comedy of Errors: Finding the Quality Inn. The GPS had a little meltdown, apparently, “lost signal”. Finally, I made it. The lobby is underwhelming which is to say not very luxurious. But… the woman at the desk is an absolute saint. “Welcome to Newfoundland, luv!” she chirps, and suddenly, everything feels brighter. Room? Standard, but clean. I’ve had worse, MUCH worse.
• 3:00 PM – Settling In/Minor Panic Attack: The real fun begins. Unpacking always feels like a monumental task. Did I bring enough socks? Probably not. Do I really need that oversized novelty Canadian flag t-shirt I impulse-bought? Likely not. But I brought it anyway. I'm already regretting every questionable packing choice.
• 4:00 PM - Orientation Scramble: Wandering the town. Corner Brook is… quaint. It's like a mix of small-town charm and rugged coastal grit. I, however, appear to be dressed like I'm about to attend a garden party. Note to self: blend in more, lady!
• 6:00 PM – Dinner Debacle at "The Glynmill Inn": I'm starving! I was recommended The Glynmill Inn because of the scenery but it was a bit out of the way. I was hoping for an intimate Newfoundland experience. The server was just lovely, but the food? Alright. I will admit that the fish and chips were divine. But the price was a bit too rich for my blood.
• 8:00 PM – "Netflix and Chill" (Solo Edition): Back at the hotel. Exhausted. The "chill" part is me and the TV. The real Newfoundland experience I hope for is beginning to feel out of reach.

Day 2: Waterfalls Wobbles and Whale Whispers (hopefully)

• 8:00 AM – Breakfast Buffet Survival: The Quality Inn breakfast. Okay, it's not gourmet, but it's free. Gotta load up on carbs for the day. Pretend the rubbery eggs are… something else.
• 9:00 AM – The Waterfall Whimsy (Corner Brook Stream): I finally decide to do something! A short hike to Corner Brook Stream, or what the locals call it "The Falls". It's lovely, really, but I managed to trip over a root almost immediately. So graceful, I am.
• 11:30 AM – The Long Drive to Gros Morne National Park: I've heard it's like stepping onto another planet. Let's hope the driving is manageable. I am terrible at road trips.
• 1:00 PM – Gros Morne Gawks (Part 1): The landscape. Wow. Dramatic cliffs, turquoise waters, just… breathtaking. It’s also incredibly windy. My hair is a disaster. I have a bad feeling about this.
• 2:00 PM – The Cruise of the "Western Brook Pond" This is the highlight! Cruising through the glacial fjord thingy, the scenery felt otherworldly. I’m surrounded by silence, except for the occasional gasp of "Oh my god!" I wasn’t the only one. It felt like being inside a painting. Magical. Maybe all that packing and planning was worth it after all.
• 4:00 PM – Gros Morne Gawks (Part 2): I explore a bit more. Maybe try the Tablelands hike. I'm not sure what to expect. The hiking is… challenging. My legs are burning, but the views? More than worth it.
• 6:00 PM – Dinner in the Town of Woody Point: This place is picture-perfect! The food is good, it's a small town, and the people are amazing.
• 8:00 PM – The Hotel Hang: Back to the Quality Inn. It’s fine, it does the job! I'm exhausted, but also buzzing. This Newfoundland thing is starting to get to me!

Day 3: History, Hysteria and Leaving Luck

• 9:00 AM – Breakfast Reprieve: Again. Eggs, bacon and toast. This time, it's all okay.
• 10:00 AM – Corner Brook Museum & Archives: A deep dive into local history. Turns out, Corner Brook has a rich paper-milling past. It's not thrilling, but it gives a new perspective. I admire the resilience. I'm starting to recognize the people through the history.
• 11:30 AM – Shopping for Souvenirs: I need to bring something for the people at home. I find the perfect, slightly absurd, Newfoundland-themed fridge magnet and a mug that says "Keep calm and eat toutons."
• 1:00 PM – Lunch (and a Near-Disaster): Quick stop at a local diner. I, in my infinite wisdom, order something I've never tried before. Suddenly I'm clutching my stomach. Luckily, the incredibly kind owner swoops in with a remedy. I think it was an anti-nausea tea.
• 2:00 PM – The Drive Back (to Reality): One last, lingering look at the coast. Newfoundland has worked its magic.
• 4:00 PM – Last Round (Glynmill Inn): A final toast to this wild, wonderful journey. I'm going to miss it.
• 6:00 PM – The Flight Home (and All the Feels): Feeling sentimental. That was a mess. Some of it was awful. Some of it was magical. And every single moment was… real. Newfoundland, you beautiful, chaotic, utterly unforgettable place.

The Imperfections? Oh, they were on purpose. I'm not a travel blogger. I'm a real person. And this is a real trip. Good, bad, and utterly hilarious. That's the spirit of Newfoundland. Embrace the chaos. Drink the tea. And maybe… just maybe… pack extra socks.

Corner Brook's BEST Kept Secret: Quality Inn Review (You Won't Believe This!) - The Really, Really Unofficial FAQ

Okay, spill the tea! What's the *actual* secret about the Quality Inn in Corner Brook? Everyone's always talking about it.

Alright, buckle up, buttercups. The "secret"? Honestly, it's not some grand, Illuminati-level conspiracy, nor is it the best kept secret, as you may have heard. It's... well, it's surprisingly *charming*, in a very "we-tried-our-best-and-that's-good-enough" kind of way. It's the kind of place that feels like it’s been running since the dawn of time and has a story to tell in every water stain. You'll see. Seriously. Okay, okay, I *guess* the "secret" (if there even *is* one) is that it's consistently better than you expect. Much, *much* better. Especially considering the other options in Corner Brook, which, let's be honest, can sometimes feel like a race to the bottom of the hospitality barrel. The Quality Inn? It's like finding a perfectly ripe blueberry in a field of thistles. You're just... pleasantly surprised. Maybe even delighted. Don't tell anyone, okay? They might get booked up!

But like... *why* is it better? What's the hook? Is it the pool? The complimentary waffles?

Okay, the pool situation... that's a whole *thing*. The pool is, shall we say... *functional*. Clean-ish? Let's go with clean-ish. But it’s got character. It has the feel of a pool that has seen many families come and go. It's not Olympic-sized, mind you. More like a glorified bathtub for grown ups. But... it’s open, it's warm, and the chlorine smell? Ah, the sweet, sweet nostalgia of childhood. The waffles? Oh, the waffles. They're part of the breakfast... *spread.* And *spread* is the operative word. They aren't gourmet. They’re not going to win any awards. But they are warm, they are fluffy-ish (the fluffiness is definitely on a sliding scale), and they are... *there*. They’re a beacon of hope in a world of over-processed travel breakfast sadness. You can slather them with syrup (the REAL maple syrup--or at least, a passable facsimile). That little waffle machine... it's a game changer, really. It’s a testament to hope. The true hook? I think it's the staff. They genuinely seem to care. (More on this later, believe me.)

Alright, alright, you've piqued my interest. Tell me about the staff. Are they secretly superheroes?

Superheroes? Maybe not. But they're close. Let me regale with a story. I'm thinking back to my last trip, when I checked in. I was running late, exhausted after a long drive, and I’d left my charger at home. I'm in full panic mode, already thinking of the wasted hours of boredom ahead. I’d already been grumpy, and I took it out on the poor lady behind the desk, who seemed to be doing EVERYTHING herself. I blurted it out. "I'm going to lose my mind if I don't have a charger for my phone and my car's dead and--!" She didn’t sigh, she didn’t roll her eyes (and believe me, I would have understood). She listened. Then, without a second thought, she rummaged around *behind* the desk. After a minute of searching, she comes back with a *pile* of chargers, and hands them to me with a smile. Said, "See if you can find one that works, no problem at all. Most people leave them." And later, when I was having trouble with the TV (I’m no tech wizard), she came and fixed it. That's what I call going above and beyond. The staff *cares*. It's a rare, precious thing. And it makes all the difference in the world. I remember *her* name now, Brenda. Brenda, you’re amazing. Okay, rant over (for now). But the staff… they're the heart and soul. They're the ones who make it feel less like a generic hotel and more like… well, like a slightly quirky, slightly well-worn home away from home. Even if that home has a slightly questionable pool.

Room details? Is the decor stuck in the 80s, or... worse?

Okay, the decor… let's call it "eclectic." Some rooms definitely scream "late 90s early 2000s," still. Some are… well, they might have been updated… *sometime*. You're probably not going to find gleaming, minimalist design. Think… cozy. Think… slightly worn, but clean. Think… character. And the beds? Usually comfortable. Not the cloud-like fluff you find these days. Expect some… *interesting* furniture. A chair that's seen better days? Possibly. A slightly wonky lampshade? Oh, almost certainly. But hey, who needs perfection when you've got the charm of a place that's seen a few things? It’s not fancy, but it’s *functional* and it's usually clean.

Okay, so what's the *one* thing that could ruin the whole experience? What's the potential dealbreaker?

Okay, this is where I get real. Parking. Actually, it is not terrible parking, but it is limited. When they say "ample parking" they sometimes play fast and loose with the word. If the hotel is super busy, finding a spot close to the entrance could be a challenge. And the elevators. The elevators are slow. They're old. They're... well, let's just say I've walked a few flights of stairs instead of waiting. I hope you enjoy some cardio while you are in there. It is a good thing, right? But honestly? Dealbreakers are rare. At least, in my experience. It’s not a five-star hotel, and it doesn't pretend to be. Manage your expectations a *little*… that’s the key. If you’re after luxury, go elsewhere. But if you’re after a clean, comfortable, friendly place to rest your head, with the bonus of Brenda's smile? Then you've found your place.

Any other little quirks or things to watch out for?

Oh, yes. The wifi can be a bit patchy at times. Don’t expect lightning speeds. Bring a good book or download your streaming stuff ahead of time. Also, the breakfast area can get… busy. Like, *really* busy. Especially around the time the waffle-makers are in full swing. Plan accordingly. And if you're a light sleeper… ask for a room away from the elevator. Or the hallway. Or maybe just bring earplugs. You *will* hear things. Because this is a place with a lot of real life contained within its walls.
