Location was great. Two steps down to a small bathroom and we would have preferred another room not on 3rd floor. Need to book direct with the hotel next time to request a room.

This property is super nice. Great area. The outdoor area of this hotel is so nice and updated. Although the room furniture is outdated, super outdated. I get it though. Also bad side is there is roaches. I only saw baby roaches. But it is Florida so what do you expect. Apart from that it is beautiful

Our stay was good, not great. We stayed in room 1 which was in the main level and we could hear the people above us walking in the room. It was very loud and the guests were smokers and going in and out on the porch so many times a day it was crazy. Also on two separate occasions I got decaf coffee from the pool area and my cup was full of coffee grounds. Very disappointing because the coffee was good.

This was a total last minute find and WOW did Douglas House impress. This two bedroom suite was perfectly located and appointed. And the HUGE wrap-around balcony was the perfect spot to take in Duval St. Far enough away so it's quiet, but two blocks to walk to the action or to the water.
