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.

I looked at the pictures on the Expedia website and they looked very nice but the pictures were nothing like reality. Our room was in a state of complete disrepair. If I can attach pictures to this review I will to support my comments. The exterior of the building had not been taken care of and the inside was not good either. We have never stayed in such a bad place. My husband was afraid to sit or sleep in the bed. We saw bugs on the floor and it felt like we were in a slum hotel. It had an upholstered suitcase bench that was covered in stains. In the morning when we took showers neither of us had hot water and that was at 8 in the morning. We went to look at the breakfast but we were so disgusted by the room I felt sure where they prepared the food was probably not clean or maintained so we didnt eat the free breakfast. I would NOT recommend staying at the hotel.

Purchased 2 rooms for one night stay. Over $300 per room . Facility tired and needed revamp. Staff friendly , room clean . Felt room value was more $100/ night value . Sheets thin , imbedded old stain on sheets. Breakfast sausages looked anemic, watery . Safe bet was just coffee and cereal . Very disappointing for the cost.

Room was dated. The service room did not clean the room how they supposed to do! We paid 250 per day! This place over charge they rooms in December specially the weekend of night of lights. The breakfast is nothing special in my opinion is Better get breakfast somewhere else. The only good is the location is 15 minutes walking to the historic center, and 5 minutes walking from fountain of Youth!

I was extremely disappointed with my recent stay at this hotel. The pictures shown online are very misleading and do not reflect the actual condition of the property or the rooms. Upon arrival, there was a strong, unpleasant smell in the front office, which immediately raised concerns. Unfortunately, the same odor was also present in the room, making the stay uncomfortable from the start. The room itself was dirty, including the bathroom, and the towels provided were visibly unclean and appeared used. Cleanliness is a basic expectation, and this hotel failed to meet even minimal standards. To make matters worse, the hotel is overpriced for what you actually receive. The quality, cleanliness, and overall condition do not justify the cost. I would not recommend this hotel and strongly advise future guests to be cautious and not rely solely on the online photos when booking.

Location was the best - 15 minute walk to the historic district for the Night of Lights. Staff at reception were friendly and professional. Room could have been cleaner. Condition of the furniture was such that the varnish made everything sticky. Bed was comfortable but the bedding was stained. Breakfast room was too small - not enough tables.
