My wife and I spent 3 nights in July 2024. On property parking is a definite perk. The my wife and I fell in love with St. Francis as soon as we arrived. Beautiful courtyard and quaint inn. The breakfast was good and coffee was also great and always available. Everyone was so nice and helpful with directions and ideas of what to do for our first visit to St. Augustine. A heads up… it’s really hot in the summer obviously but the gnats love to harass you just about anywhere you go in St. Augustine. The Old Town Trolley has a stop nearby and you get can tickets from the inn. So it made it that much easier to get around. We had Lilly’s room because that’s what was available at the time. It’s not too big but for a couple that’s not planning on spending too much time in the room it was perfect. Whenever we decide to visit St. Augustine we’ll definitely be staying here again.

Great place for a romantic stay!

Fabulous B&B within short walking distance to the hustle and bustle of the Historic District. We stayed in Saffron's Suite, and pictures online do not do it justice! The entire property is quaint and peaceful, clean and well appointed. The staff is amazing, and they actively look for ways to make your stay the best experience. It is an historic house, so it is older, but the hot water was immediate and powerful, the AC was perfect and all of the room amenities were in excellent, clean order. I highly recommend staying here!

Excellent, friendly, quiet area with historical sights, dining options, art galleries and shops within a block of the property. The busier area of St. George Street was a 5-10 minute easy walk. One of the trolley stops was just a block away. The inn had complimentary tickets to the lighthouse and Lincolnville Museum, both worth a visit. We enjoyed our included daily breakfast, social hour, and deserts. We stayed in the Ambrose Retreat which was a 5 minute walk to the main area of the St Francis Inn and we loved it. Highly recommend!

Lovely decor with many places to relax both inside and outside: pool area, gazebo, courtyard, parlor, dining room, porches with attentive & friendly staff who were willing to help with questions & reservations.

Kristen and dining staff were outstanding. Breakfast, social hour and desert were fabulous! Miss Emily’s room was cozy, clean and the jacuzzi tub was relaxing. The onsite parking was great for leaving your car for the stay and walking to dinner or events. It was nice to know we’d have a parking spot if we did drive somewhere.

Everything was nice and clean.

Everything was nice and clean they did ask us to reuse our towels. They did not replace our face towels. There was no ice anywhere. We had to walk all the way across the street into another building carried upstairs into heavy doors. No amenities of soda or water or chips or any type of biscuit or Danish. The breakfast was worse than a truck stop and I don't even know what truck stop food is so I do not want to insult the truck stop. Absolutely ridiculous. 32 years me and my husband has waited to go to a bed and breakfast. Thank you it saddens me to make these comments. The room was a delight the balconeed comfort safe. They were absolutely no amenities we were on our own 10:30 at night. Maybe 1045 after walking a mile back from the prohibition restaurant on a rickety road. But that's. What we were into so that was good. There was no ice there was no water a soda nothing whatsoever we had to walk back down the stairs across the street we weren't sure. If we were breaking and entering we didn't quite know the rules at 10:45 at night if we're allowed to use the key to go into the. Main house God bless
