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.

The first rooms we were given reaked of bleach we booked 2 king rooms for $250 w taxes and resort fees there were no covers on all of the light fixtures and the bath room cabinets were just plyboards painted and awful, doors didnt open/close correctly to bathrooms no privacy with the bad install and placement of bathroom doors that were very very old and grimey. The second set of rooms were musty smelling had some room updates such as counters but again shodded and the nighstands were so beat up the wood chips are peeling you cant touch them wo getting splinters rooms are lacking real cleaning needs painting and so many repairs cant use the shower comfortably nor the toliet as the flush button and toliet paper handle has so much gross looking stuff its disgusting in both rooms do not recommend anyone staying here we will not be using the beds and plan on checking out at dawn. Awful conditions and a true waste of our money 500 for 2 rooms and we dont feel comtable even taking a shower or sitting on the very warn out chairs worse hotel experience

The location is fantastic, right next to the Fountain of Youth Archaeological site and a few minutes from the historic downtown. The room was clean and comfortable.

The bed was hard, super hard. The floor was filthy. The frig made a loud humming sound when it was on. The heat setting was either to hot or to cold. Code violations, steps to the unit was to steep and the toilet was to close to the vanity. We were scheduled for three days but left after the first night. We were refused a refund. We will not use Expedia in the future as well.
