We like the location and the place is cute. Wish our shower head hadnt been spraying everywhere on the water. The pressure is super good for a hotel but the fact that it was spraying everywhere around the head was a bummer. Will report to front desk at checkout. Othwrwise the place is sweet and quiet. Thank u for a good rest!

Bayfront is an older Augustine hotel, but as it was renovated a few years ago, it is updated and a good choice. Plus, an easy walk to the old City's heart.

The staff is outstanding and went upbove and beyond to make your stay there excellent. They were always friendly and went out of their way to say hi and make sure everything is good.

Omelets, potatoes, ham, a variety of pastries, breads, juice, cereals, fruit, and yogurt. The bed was very comfortable refreshing clean sheets and bedding. Clean well stocked bathroom with a hairdryer under the sink. The room was spotless. Highly recommend

We loved our stay here! The room was clean and comfortable, staff was excellent, and breakfast was small but definitely on the better side of what I usually find in a hotel breakfast. It was great being right in the historic district, we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to visit. Will definitely stay here again!

Very nice staff, great location!

Very nice staff and great location. Room was good, I would suggest taking a fan, AC was struggling as was everyone’s. Will try again in early fall or spring, the trip was a little brutal due to extreme heat. Not a gig, but your room will not offer much relief from the heat.
