Our bed was very hard and lumpy. We did tell the desk The first morning and he said that he would tell the owner. Also I thought that the first car parks free. At check in the lady gave us a veteran discount and added $40.00 to park the car for 2 nights. We ended up paying $30.00 over this websites quote. We were not happy.

Great hotel in great location

Excellent hotel in fabulous location. overlooking marina, quiet at night, close to Aviles Street and local places. Staff were excellent, very accommodating. Please know that a $20 parking fee per night exists although is not listed in fees. Surprised to learn this on check in, we compromised on the two nights, paying only one night for parking. Other than that, great people and location. Rooms look like the photos. Recommend upstairs rooms.

The property is located super close to pier and all of what St.Augustine has to offer. The motel itself is ok but not in the best condition, it looks likes it’s being slowly remodeled and renovated. The room was dirty, had broken fixtures, and broken window glass.

We had a great stay at Marion Motor Lodge as a family of four! The room was clean, and the staff were incredibly kind and accommodating. Karen in particular was so helpful, welcoming, and friendly—she really made us feel at home. Communication with the hotel was excellent from start to finish. The area felt very safe, and we had no trouble parking our full-size SUV. One of the best parts was being able to walk to the Old City—it made exploring St. Augustine so easy and enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Spent July 3 and fourth here. Location is excellent. Plenty of things to walk to. Very nice to sit on my porch and watch the boat traffic go by. Love that they had an actual freezer that worked along with my refrigerator. The rooms have been updated and are fine. If you’re looking for more upscale, go up the street to the Hilton. But this offers the best value for your money without feeling like you’re in a seedy hotel. It will be my go to whenever wanting to stay in downtown historic Saint Augustine.!

We had a problem inside the room. I reported it early in the morning. The sink had a broken pipe. I reported it to an individual by name of Gabriel. He said that he would have an addressed within an hour we left came back multiple hours later only to find our our door was unlocked. The bed had no sheets on it, and the sink is still not been fixed. I went down and talked to a very nice lady at the front desk. She offered to move us to a different room and help us move to a different room the next day our key would not work on the door so I had to go back down to the front desk. Nobody was manning it. It took him 20 minutes before I can get back into the Room overall not very satisfied with the place the areas around it and everything else was fantastic just because of a historic value of the city, but they need to do something better on customer service and customer care to have a sink break and not even clean up the room or anything else is completely uncalled for unnecessary especially when ““ they have housekeeping on site
