We came here for Valentines day the pictures provided looked very romantic however it doesn't reflect the current condition of the property. I was extremely disappointed pulling in especially after spending almost $300 for the night. If there was another room available elsewhere we wond not have stayed here. I know this is a historical area but it definitely looks more run down in person. Some TLC is very much needed. The inside of the room was pretty much the same. The doors looked dirty. The floors looked like they had never been cleaned, stains on the sheets, hairs found everywhere. We asked for new linen and it was provided right away. The walls are also super thin. The people staying next to us kept us up until about 3am doing what sounded like wrestling and you could here every word they were saying. We enjoyed our time in St Augustine but i will not be staying here again.

The place was nice, but it's an updated motel from 1959. The breakfast was good, but standard. The staff was friendly and helpful. The proximity to historic downtown is worth something, but the $183 we paid for one night was about 2 times the value of this place. And the regular price is more like $300. But it's a $90 motel.

This hotel is a convenient walk to down town St Augustine. About a 15-20 min brisk walk. They have a great breakfast and friendly helpful staff. The rooms are small but have been updated. Bathroom is small but again nice and updated. You can’t beat this location for price and convenience. I recommend highly!

The staff was fine. The room and hotel was misrepresented. The room was not clean with mold in the bathroom, stained sheets, etc. There was some type of tech equipment hanging in front of the door which kept getting lower were we could walk right into it on the second morning. My daughter got sick the first night there so we had to leave early and the hotel would not refund any of our money. I understand that I had prepaid and the charges were non-refundable, but I would have appreciated at least one day refunded. I would remove this hotel from your site.

Honest review. I understand you get what you pay for but there are simple basics. Unfortunately I can't post pictures here but work needed to be done to the room in a major way. Water damage on ceiling, dirt in the corners, and rust & mold. The price was great but it us what it is.

The backside of the bathroom door needed to be washed just above the doorkknob (it had brown on it). The bathroom itself was clean and had been updated in recent years. The main room was dated. I liked that the bedspread was white so you could see that it was clean. Villa 1565 is within easy walking distance of historic downtown which is very convenient, and we felt quite safe even at 10 p.m walking back to our room. Big plus-parking on site and NOT an extra charge. Breakfast was basic with eggs, sausage, etc but at least they had it onsite.

Our room was dirty and worn. The bedsheet had a stain on it by the pillow. Our building was 50 feet from a noisy road. We heard loud car traffic all night long. The heater did not maintain a consistent temperature. The motel is convenient to the center of town and parking is free. Breakfast was typical of hotels/motels that offer free breakfast.
