Here is what some of our valued clients have had to say about Chipman Hill Suites:


February 1, 2008

Hi Marilyn,

I just wanted to thank you and all the staff at Chipman Hill Suites  for taking such great care of me for the last year. The service is   excellent and the rooms are fabulous. There are not too many places that will give you a free upgrade just because my wife is traveling with me or none of the usual rooms I stay in are available.

I have been telling everyone I know about Chipman Hill Suites and I know one of my wifes co-workers has stayed with you on my recommendation and her and her husband absolutely loved it and said they will be staying again on their next trip. As long as I am traveling to Saint John for work I will be staying staying at Chipman Hill Suites.

Thanks and I look forward to staying with you again in 2008

Susan:

We enjoyed our visit to your fine property!! 

It was a delight to talk with you and we do want to stay in contact with you, perhaps even visiting Saint John again one day. You have done admirable work on the buildings and I know from experience what it takes to do this fine work...much hard work and long hours. 

I hope you will enjoy now the fruit of your labor and enjoy life daily. I am sending you a little gift for your enjoyment.  We did have a great trip back to NYC and then to Fort Worth.  We like your part of the country and invite you to Fort Worth any time in the future. 

Our best to you and wishing for you all the best and enjoyable things you wish for in life.

On behalf of the New Brunswick Competitive Festival of Music, I wanted to thank you for hosting our merry band of adjudicators over the past couple of years.

Adjudicators are very used to travelling to a town and stay in a hotel or motel and are often concerned when we tell them that they will not be staying in one...until we give them the brochures and they visit your website. Staying at your 71 Sydney treet property has been a joy!

The ability for me to have access to the rooms to prepare them for our guests and leave the necessities of milk, juice, water, bread, muffins, etc. for their arrival is a special touch that they appreciate and is definitely more than they would get at the hotel/motel anywhere else. To also be able house anywhere between 4 and 8 people all under the same roof at one time is spectacular, but the fact that you and your staff are even more accommodating and allow us to host our adjudicator meetings there as well has been beyond a blessing!

Oft times, the meetings with the board and adjudicators are in between classes or at the end of a long adjudication day when the last thing that they would like to do is go out some where, meet and then find their way home. This way, they can literally come down to the lounge or living room flop in a big, comfy chair and know that they only have to move again to get to bed!

Speaking of beds...I'm not sure what kind of mattresses you have but to quote one adjudicator, "The bed is divine!! The best sleep I've had in years!" and it is definitely something that I tell all adjudicators when they have questions about their rooms.

Thank you to Susan, Marilyn and all the staff at Chipman Hill for making what can be an onerous task manageable! You and your staff are so professional, accommodating and flexible! To say that we are now spoiled is an understatement!

The Festival looks forward to many more successful Festivals with well rested, alert and happy adjudicators looking after the students' performances thanks to your staff and property!

Warmest Regards,

Terri-Lynn Russell
New Brunswick Competitive Festival of Music

I just wanted to let you both know that we LOVED our stay at 71 Sydney.  We have been telling people how beautiful the building was, how nice it was to stay OUT of a chain hotel, and how personable our service was. 

We greatly appreciated that you allowed us to book via email and how "on the ball" you both were in ensuring EVERY detail was looked after. 

We used the Saint John information folder every day and felt like you put a lot of effort into making tourists feel welcome. The staff was great, our suite (#9) was amazing and we will definitely recommend Chipman Hill to anyone travelling to Saint John. 

We hope to see you again!

Sincerely,
Sara Hines & Geoff Yunker

Dear Susan:

I wanted to say thanks for the wonderful service. The room, and especially the staff, were a real treat. 

Please feel free to use my letter on your website. You are right about customer service in today's service industries. I am a waitress at a very busy restaurant and can relate to your sentiments.

Yourself and your staff went the extra mile and I felt valuable and appreciated.(feel free to use this statement as well). Until my October dates are finalized, take care and good luck.

Sincerely,

Hi Again ;

I just wanted to write and say that out overnite stay was a wonderful . The suites were fabulous and beyond what we both expect.

Since I work with antiques ( I repair and restore for a living ) the grand staircase was a delight to see.

The stained glass windows were awesome. It was clean and tidy and the bed was very comfy I will recommend your establishment everytime I get the chance.

Thanking You Again

I stayed, I believe, at 71 Syndey Street in May of this year. I would like to reserve the two end suites 14 & 15.  Private entrance.  It was wonderful.  Any chance that those two suites would be available for September 13, 14, and 15?  I am bringing my mother to her home city of Saint John and I think those two suites would be ideal. 

Sincerely,

We've just gotten home to Pennsylvania and wanted to let you know that your suite at 195 Princess Street was the nicest place we stayed in all two weeks of our trip!

What a pleasant surprise to go in and see the suite – you never know what you'll get over the internet.  Last night we all agreed that Saint John and Chipman Hill were in our highlights.   Thanks again for exceeding our expectations!

Regards,

We cannot begin to thank you and the staff for making our stay here so wonderful. It has truly felt like home away from home and we will definitely pass the word about what a fantastic place it is.

We spend our summers at our cottage on beautiful Grand Lake here in the province.

It is a real testament to your company that we have actually spent some of our weekends off here rather than there.

Hopefully we will get to stay in the near future when  we get work in the area again.

Meryl Ann: 

I wanted to take the time to tell you how we both enjoyed the stay we had at Chipman Hill Suites. The suite was just what we needed. It was a beautiful room in a beautiful building close to everything we wanted to do in Saint John.

Thank you again,

Hello Marilyn,

As you may recall, we visited at 71 Sydney St a couple of weeks ago.  There were a couple of things we especially appreciated so wanted you to know that too.  The availability of the complimentary laundry was wonderful, so much nicer and easier than traipsing off to a laundromat, and secondly, the kitchen was so nicely stocked.  My husband was impressed that the utility knives were sharp! 

We had all we needed and the location was very good.

THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL STAY!

I have vacated what has been my beautiful home for a little over one year @ 2 Mecklenburg Street, #5. 
I wanted to say "Thank you!" for being so helpful, courteous, and professional during my stay.  

I have felt so welcome; not only in this beautiful suite, but also in Saint John due to your hospitality.  I have enjoyed the comfort, the cleanliness, and the convenience of Chipman Hill Suites and will highly recommend your units to my colleagues and friends. 

 Great job!

Thank you again!

We had a great time in Saint John and a very relaxing stay in your apartment.  It was great to have enough room for the kids to sprawl out after a very long car ride together. I will be recommending you to anyone I know heading to Saint John for a vacation or business.

It was a pleasure meeting Susan in person finally after all the e-mails back and forth. We will be sure to contact you if we make it back to Saint John.

Thanks

Dear Susan:

Because things are getting pretty frantic for my last week, I thought I'd better e-mail you in case our paths don't cross before Friday.

First, thank you, and everyone else at Chipman Hill, for looking after me so well. I felt welcome from the moment I arrived. The building is beautiful, and the location is superb. As far as the room size is concerned, I've rather come to like it-it's cosy and I've got used to it, so I'd like (if possible) to book it again for when I return (15 September).

It only remains for me to reiterate my thanks to you for all you've done to make my stay in Saint John so much fun. It's a great city with great people, but it wouldn't have been the same without you. I'm looking forward to coming back in September.

I'd be delighted if you quoted me on your website. And do please tell all your staff how much I appreciate everything they've done for me during my stay (including coming in on a Sunday evening to let me into my room!). Thank you all-you're a very special bunch of people.

Take care,

Very best wishes,
David Mosey

June 26, 2007

I just want to sincerely thank you for my stay during my first three months in Saint John.  Most importantly, for allowing AND welcoming my dog Charlie as well.  It was greatly appreciated and I certainly hope he wasn't too much trouble. 

Everyone at Chipman Hill (guests included) were so welcoming to my dog, Charlie - its rare to see, but GREATLY appreciated.  Its not easy traveling with a dog - however, it's been pretty carefree at Chipman Hill - THANKS!!!!  I have already made positive remarks to management regarding the cleanliness, accessibility, comfort and warm welcome.   

I will definitely recommend you to others as well.

Thanks and have a great summer,

Susan,

Today is my last day here in Saint John .  Before I leave, I wanted to convey my sincere thanks, to you and to your staff, for my stay at one of your suites.  It was truly my home away from home.   

Best regards,

Susan and Marilyn,
 
 I have been offered and have accepted a job in Fredericton. I would like to thank you both again for making this last year and a bit as painless as could be for me. It really means a lot to both my wife and I that everything has been so quickly an professionally taken care of at every turn. I will certainly miss the building and the staff.
 
 One again thank you.
 
 Sincerely,

Hello Susan,

Thanks for your assistance at the Cliff Street property. We found the accommodations to be excellent and met our needs beautifully. My family were very happy and, in fact, my son and his wife now want a king size bed. They don't have room for a king size but they want one. The kids bought some breakfast supplies and cooked for themselves for Saturday and Sunday mornings and / or went to the local Tim Horton's . They hooked up their Play Station, watched movies, watched TV and generally had a great time.

The visit to Saint John was very successful and very enjoyable. Saint John is a great place. Thanks again for all of your help. I have sent the link to " Chipman Hill Suites " to several friends and will certainly recommend them should they be going your way. Thanks again for your help and great price.

Dear Susan,

I have intended on writing you sooner than this; however, I guess things are more hectic than I thought. I wish to write to you and tell you how wonderful our housekeeper Tina is. She is truly an asset to your company. She has a beautiful personality and is a very industrious employee.  I find her professional and pleasant. I cannot say enough except to say I wish to bring her home with me when my house is completed. I truly do not know how I will continue without her. You definitely have a diamond and I wished you to know that she certainly shines in our eyes.

We again thank you for having these wonderful suites and we will certainly be back.

Hi Susan –

I just wanted to thank you for the fabulous accommodations last weekend during the CCMA’s! The room was so cozy and comfortable. You have a wonderful accommodation listing in Saint John and I will be passing on the good word of Chipman Hill Suites to everyone I know that is traveling out that way!

Thanks again, and I look forward to staying with Chipman Hill again in the future!

Kindest regards,

We had a great time staying with you at Chipman Hill.  You couldn't have been more helpful and we really appreciate all the effort you put into our visit.  We are keeping your business card as we will definitely be visiting you again.  The room was great and you and your staff are fabulous.

Thanks for a lovely visit.

Your friend in Houston,

Dear Susan and Marilyn, 

Thank you so much for the wonderful elegant and historic accommodation that you were able to provide for our family.    It was a refuge to our family of weary travelers to reach this place and have a home to stretch out in.  Our four boys still say it was their favourite spot to stay (though none of them particularly liked the flowery bedding :-)  ha- go figure. I thought it was beautiful!) We all wish that we could have stayed a lot longer to enjoy the comfort of this beautiful home and the city surrounding it.  Who knows maybe we'll be back some day.  Anyway, I just wanted to say that we really appreciated the flexibility you had in getting us into this vintage home for one night.   We spent four amazing weeks traveling across our beautiful vast country and stayed at many wonderful and different places but yours was undoubtedly the best! 

Thanks and God Bless, 

Sherry Mitchell

You guys are unique in the "landlord" business as far as my experience goes; usually it's just about getting the lease signed and collecting the money.  You guys take it to the next "personal" level which shows you care. 

I am VERY happy with the unit I am leasing from Susan.  And, I am AS happy with her (and her colleague, Marilyn's) professional and personal service.  She's been super courteous and responsive to ALL of my requests, including helping me coordinate activities for my children when they came up for a visit from Houston, Texas recently.  She also provided me a number of contacts (doctors, vet, churches, grocery stores, pharmacies, masseuse, hair stylist, restaurant references, etc.).  She's an email "junkie" like me - never allowing a day (a day?  more like an HOUR!) go by without answering a question I asked.  The apartment I'm leasing is in a very nice location close to the heart of "uptown"; walking distance to a number of nice restaurants, shopping, and other activities.  I'm very pleased with the decor in my apartment and the amenities (weekly housekeeping service, cable TV, wireless internet).  You couldn't ask for better service,  I don't believe you can go wrong in selecting Chipman Hill Suites. 

Cheers,

Hi

Your suites are the best kept secret in Saint John . They are beautiful and roomy and well decorated. That king sized bed was awesome !!  I can't find a better deal in NB for a suite of such high quality. We will definitely be back. Thanks for a great experience !!

Dear Susan,

This is beyond any of my expectations. I simply enjoy my room and the House, and the Sun Room is amazing.

I am overwhelmed by the glory of this Home. Thanks to those smart and brave people we are enjoying the beauty of their homes. And thanks to this City this is protected as the Historical Home. Toronto destroyed too much of the Heritage our grandparents left to us.

I cannot explain my feelings sitting in the "Sun Room" or sitting in those beautiful living rooms.

I will strongly recommend your suites to anybody who is visiting Saint John. And you could certainly expect me on my next visit to this beautiful City.

I am thrilled that you like my previous e-mail, it would be a great compliment to me if you put it on your website. 

The quality is absolutely "the Hilton one" but not only that your customer care and hospitality is amazing.

I would strongly recommend the Chipman Hill Suites during the visit in St John. Now I'm having a hard time to leave this glorious House; The Sun Room, the Living rooms with the leather sofas.... back to civilization of Toronto, hm I already like it here, perhaps I should pack my luggage and move in....

Thanks again and we will stay in touch.

Sincerely yours,

Dear Susan,

Glad to hear your world (read empire) is still expanding.  It's also nice to know there is still a market for high quality accomodations with a personal touch in this World of Wal-Mart and Super 8 motels.  I mean every word and then some.  I have tremendous admiration for your skill, effort and impeccable good taste.  With the world going the way it is, it's difficult to find quality anything.

Thank you for a Wonderful Stay!

Susan and the Chipman Hill Suites Staff,

Thank you for the lovely stay in your fair city!  Your accommodations made my extended stay (Oct 27th - Nov 12th) a delightful home away from home. I felt very welcome with the note and bar of chocolate on my arrival.  I appreciated the outstanding housekeeping of your staff each day during the week - and the kind check-ins on the weekends.  The central location of #5 Chipman Hill made it easy for me to enjoy the local sights, shopping and dining of Saint John.

I look forward to my return. 

Thank you again for a wonderful stay,

Thanks so much for the FANTASTIC service! Unfortunately I did not arrive in time to meet you - a looong day! I felt absolutely at home and, although I only stayed one night, I can honestly say that the warmth and charm of the accommodations made my night away from home very, very comfortable and relaxing.

I will be spreading the word amongst my family, friends & co-workers and look forward to thinking of excuses to travel to Saint John and staying with you again....all the best!

Dear Susan:

I want to again express my appreciation to you and your staff for my very pleasant stay at 5 Chipman Hill. You certainly run things very well. Marilyn, Barbie and David, in particular, were a pleasure to deal with. Leaving felt a bit like leaving home, and, after four years and eight months, I guess it was. I enjoyed being there.

Thanks again, also, for your kind invitation to dinner. I certainly regretted not being able to attend.

Yours very truly,

Whether it is a mole hill or a mountain, the staff at Chipman Hill Suites will move whatever it takes to meet your needs.  Nothing is the same as being at home, but you won¹t get any closer than Chipman Hill Suites. An elegant, professional ambience with a warm, human touch. Unparalled, inbeatable.

Hi:

I just wanted to say a quick, but huge THANK YOU for looking after me so well these last 6 weeks. My stay has been nothing but wonderful, and I have found the suites to be homely, cosy and well maintained/cleaned. I would certainly recommend your properties to anyone, and will be leaving some feedback on your website.

Susan-thanks so much for the advice and replying to my (many) emails. It was great to speak to you, and you certainly helped pave my way to a great stay. It was super that you could fit mum in right next door as well-she's loved her stay. I'm off to Toronto and New York for a vacation as of tomorrow, but will take nothing but happy and fond memories of my time in Saint John


Warm regards,

Hi Susan,

It has been a great stay at Chipman Hill Suites.  I have truly enjoyed myself here in Saint John.   Your housekeeping staff has gone above and beyond on several occasions doing my soaking dishes and things.  I do appreciate it. It was not requested.  I do wash dishes, but it is not one of my favorite domestic chores.  Thank you for your hospitality. I even had enough room for my golf clubs.

Take care!

Will Madison, Alstom Power

  


Hi Susan,


I will be arriving around 2 pm on Tuesday.  Is that too early to check in?  I want you to know that I love staying with you guys.  Everyone is fantastic and I feel at home, like I am staying with family!  Everyone has been so friendly and the suites are beautiful, everything you could want or need!  Thanks again and I will see you next week!

Susan, 

We loved your place.  It was exactly what we were looking for.  It sure beats those dreadful chain high rises which we got stuck in the first night we came through St. John.  We saw your sign but your offices were already closed.  I am glad we called in advance before coming back through.

Hello Ladies;
 
I have enjoyed my stay here immensely, and the hospitality extended by all of the staff at Chipman Hill made the long absence from my family easier.  I could find no fault with anyone and would without hesitation say that all staff went above and beyond in the performance of their duties.
 
Thank you for everything,

Hi Susan!

Hello Susan;

We have really enjoyed your hospitality.

I hope to return some day with my husband, I know he would love staying  in one of your apts. Thank you again for working around my crazy schedule and stay in touch some time.. if you ever make it back to DC give me a call and I'll show you around!!

My work term in Saint John really was a wonderful experience and your apartments added to the charm for sure.  Don't lose my number, in case you do get down this way.

Thanks again for everything.

Susan,

As you know, I have recommended your suites to new physicians who are coming to our town. Now I have the occasion to stay in them myself !

I would like to thank you for the help and support that you have given my family while we build our new home. We are very impressed with Mr. David Mitchell (Service Manager) , who has responded immediately to our personal requests.

Please accept our thanks , and be sure to pass our gratitude to David.  All requests dealt with extremely efficiently thank you.  Again, I thank you very much for your help. As a 22 year resident of Saint John, with 3 children (ages 8 to 18), I can't tell you how important that a smooth transition was for our family.

Our Chipman Hill  "adventure" will be a very positive memory for our family.

Hello Susan, 

Thank you so much for arranging to have my stuff moved to my new suite, that's a big load off my mind. And you're never getting rid of me now, I love dealing with you and plan on sticking with that new apartment for at least a year!

Staying with you has eased a lot of the stress I was feeling about my move here. All of your staff is wonderfully friendly and courteous and you follow up on any problem immediately, you have the perfect customer service!

Susan,

"We had a very good time in Saint John and really enjoyed our stay. 75 Coburg is a good place. My parents have certainly enjoyed their time here. They are leaving Canada tomorrow and their only regret is that they cannot stay longer. Thank you very much for the apartment. It was excellent staying there."

Hi Susan,


It was so nice meeting you Saturday morning.  You may absolutely quote me....I would love for everyone to know how wonderful your facility is, and how warm, efficient and accommodating you and your staff are to the residents. I say residents because you truly make everyone feel a part of your "home". You have ruined me for staying at any other lodging. You can bet I will finagle a way to come back to visit Saint John, if for no other reason than to be a part of the Chipman Hill Suites
experience.

February 2005. 

More than two years ago, I accepted a new position here in Saint John, New Brunswick.  Coming from Montreal, Quebec, I did not know anyone here.  I was soon the get a real taste of what is commonly referred to as that ‘eastern Canadian friendliness’! 

Susan Fullerton, the founder and owner of Chipman Hill Suites, came highly recommended.  Having moved around the country many times for my work, I expected a professional service that would enable me to find a new home for my young daughter and I.  What I got was so much more than I had ever encountered before. 

Susan Fullerton and her great staff of dedicated employees enabled me to make this long distance transition with the greatest of ease during the Christmas holidays no less!  They did this by ensuring that my apartment was not only clean and ready for immediate unpacking but by consulting me on the décor as well.  When I arrived in Saint John with the moving van in tow many homey touches were waiting for me, such as a beautiful plant, essential grocery items as well as additional cleaning and paper products. 

This far surpassed any customer loyalty program that I knew of at the time and was really based on genuine kindness for a new comer to this community.  You would think that once I was settled in to my new life all this would simply come to an end.  Well, I was about to find out that Susan Fullerton and her company took welcoming new residents to new heights. 

She and her capable staff offered their continued support by recommending doctors, dentists, banking institutions, hairdressers, restaurants and great shopping places.  Everything I needed to make Saint John my new home was offered to me without having to go through that tedious trial and error phase. 

And now two years later what started as a simple business transaction has grown into friendship.  Beyond the excellent maintenance services offered by Susan and her staff in these exquisite heritage homes, I enjoy the continued support and my very own cheer leading section for my accomplishments and success.  Everyone at Chipman Hill suites has contributed greatly to my making Saint John my permanent home base.

May I take the opportunity to say I am absolutely enchanted with your facility. --Just love the antiques! And even though my luggage was lost when I arrived, I very much appreciate that Mike stayed to bring up my carry-on bag.

Needless to say, I am very pleased with the accommodations and know that my stay at Chipman Hill will make my visit to Saint John most memorable.

Kindest Regards,

Hi Susan and Marilyn!

Thank you so much for taking the time to ask about our stay. It really shows your dedication and love for what you do. Everything that you provided us with was better than I ever could have imagined. We had an evening filled with romance, fun, and relaxation that we will never forget, and it is all due to your going the extra mile to give your customers the very best. This will definitely be the first of many stays at  your wonderful suites.

So, in closing, I just wanted to let you know that you will be forever at the top of my referral list when any friends or relatives are looking for an unforgettable and beautiful vacation away from the ordinary. Words cannot express how grateful I am for all your help in giving the love of my life a night she will never forget.

Bye for now

Dear Susan,

All I know, you have Customer Service to the extreme, we could use you to teach some of our people about making the customer comfortable and happy.   If I am ever back in Saint John, and it's possible, I will never stay anywhere other than Chipman Hill.

Thanks,

Dear Susan,

Just a quick note to say that the accommodation was excellent - very comfortable and well-equipped. Much better than staying in a hotel. Walking around Saint John I saw many of your other historic locations. Chipman Hill Suites are to be commended for running such a useful business and reserving the heritage of the city all at once. If I'm back in Saint John again, I'll definitely patronize you again!

Thanks and best wishes

Dear Susan,

You're the best Property Manager/owner that I've known! You have extended the best service that a guest could ask for. I'm very excited about the new television channels since I'm an avid TV watcher. I really appreciate you going out of your way to make your guests happy. I was up late last night enjoying the different channels. It's almost the same that I have in Virginia. Again thank you.

Kind Regards,

Dear Marilyn & Staff;

We want to tell you how much we enjoyed our home here at Chipman Hill this past month. Everything was just WONDERFUL. Thank you also for your kindness with my footstool request. I sure enjoyed it.


We look forward to returning again.

Susan and Marilyn,

Just a short note to say thank you for making my stay in Saint John so enjoyable! The service that is provided is wonderful and makes life so much easier. I certainly enjoyed my stay in such a beautiful suite. Please give my thanks to your staff for all their assistance. If I should ever return to Saint John for a stay, I will certainly call on your services again. Once again, thanks for making the transition so easy. The year has passed very quickly and I have enjoyed my stay in Saint John, NB.

All the best,

Susan and Marilyn,

Thanks so very much for helping to make my stay in Canada so nice! It isn’t often that people go out of their way to make an 'out of towner' feel comfortable. You are appreciated!

Dear Susan,

Just a brief note to thank you for the tour of your lovely apartment building. You and Marilyn made a great team of decorators! Best wishes on you latest endeavour next door.

Also, thank you for the suggestion for dinner. We enjoyed Top of the Town very much. We asked for a table with a good view of the harbour and I think we had the best table in the whole room. I was in my glory, enjoying the harbour ( and the food) . On Sunday morning we did a tour of the historic homes of Saint John.

I think that was the highlight of my weekend. (The weather even cooperated, as the wind was calmer and the sun was quite warm.) All in all, I was very impressed by Saint John, if only it could be a bit warmer. Oh well!

Regards.
Donne Nesbitt


Dear Susan,

Thank you for helping to make this the perfect vacation! It has been such a time of refreshment, in large part due to your wonderful care!! Many, many thanks!! God bless.

Dear Susan,

My heartfelt thanks to you for allowing me to stay in your beautiful suite in Saint John. It was so clean and perfect for my stay!

Sincerely,

Dear Susan,

Your superb management and wonderful apartment has made my move to Saint John much easier than I had expected. Thank you and much health and happiness to you and your family in the New Year.

Dear Susan,

Thank you for the wonderful accommodation in the heart of downtown Saint John. I really think that you should work to get some of the architectural magazines to come and view the effort put in by your team.

The apartment that I had was bright and chipper and exceeded all of my expectations.

But I must say that the hospitality at Chipman Hill was what I shall truly remember. As a consultant, I tend to arrive in a city at a moment’s notice and leave in the same fashion. In this case, I came to your office on a Tuesday announcing my departure on the Thursday. As I had a lease, I was expecting problems, BUT, you assured me not to be concerned and were able to have my apartment re-leased. WHAT SERVICE…WHAT GOING THE EXTRA STEP.

I will remember the little niceties…arriving home and finding lobster sandwiches in the fridge…the little candies on my pillow when the suite was cleaned. When my wife visited Saint John you gave her a tour of Chipman Hill and offered excellent suggestions for supper.

Being away from your family is always difficult. You were able to make an apartment in a strange city into a home for me.
All the best to you and your team

Thanks,

Dear Susan,

Thank you for all that your office and staff have done to help make our transition into our "new beginning" in Saint John so pleasant and smooth. We were so pleased to be involved with Rose Zica and her Family! What a wonderful person Rose is and you are fortunate to have Rose as a member of your team.

We absolutely want to commend Rose for helping us in anyway she could to make our stay at 38 Cliff Street a pleasurable one. If we required any assistance at all with the apartment, Rose was right there for us. Thanks again, it was such a big change for us coming here from Vancouver.

The small things that went on within our first month here, meant the most to us overall.

Sincerely,
Deborah Mueller, Paul, Benjamin and Renae

Re: Appreciation My few months stay in Saint John (especially at 145 Germain Street Apt.#4) made me feel so exuberant and I believe it will never leave my mind. Thank you once again for your graciousness. My peace, my love and my blessing, I leave with you.

As a Guest of The Chipman Hill Suites for 14 months, I have great memories of my "home away from home". Both suites I lived in were clean, comfortable and quiet. The Suites tastefully blend the old and the new; modern convenience in yester years decor. Susan, Marilyn, the Cleaning and Maintenance Staff all provide exceptional service and do all they can to make your stay pleasant and comfortable. After 14 months I felt like "part of the family".

Dear Staff of Chipman Hill Suites,

We spent 4 weeks in Saint John for business with R.C.I. and I'm sure others from Indianapolis will follow. The weather was wonderful for our visits to Halifax and Prince Edward Island. We visited many local places, ate a lot of food and had a wonderful time. The music and activity in the city was quite entertaining. Many thanks to the Staff for providing such a great "home away from home".

What a pleasant surprise to be welcomed by you Susan, Marilyn and Boys, thank you. It was so nice to walk into such a warm beautiful suite with everything just lovely. We have traveled 10,000 miles to be here and to find we have a "home away from home" is great. In our travels we have never received such warm hospitality. We found this location very convenient and loved the history of your City and the charm of the old Buildings and Churches. With the arrival of our first grandchild Kyle, our time was taken up somewhat. Thank you again Susan, we look forward to another visit here.
