I passed by the Local the last time we visited St. Augustine and thought it looked so cute, I knew I wanted to stay there next time we were in town. Also, the location to shops & restaurants around St. Augustine is perfect! Our room was clean and had everything we needed, the pool area was cute and kept up nicely (& being 8 months pregnant I really appreciated the large flamingo float), and we even stopped into the lobby to have a complimentary latte. We will be staying again!

The check in process was OK - different being contactless. Had to put down a deposit of $100 for the room we paid for already. The ROKU TV did not work and the parking was limited otherwise we enjoyed our stay. Will have to get a room with a queen or king. The full did not cut it!

The pros were that the room was clean and most importantly the bathroom was clean! We were able to walk just a mile over the Bridge of Lions to St. George Street which was nice and convenient. The cons were that the a/c wasn’t very cold, the parking is kind of tight, the WiFi didn’t work (which was not a biggie), and lastly it was frustrating not being able to get towels when we needed them. Overall it was a nice stay and a good location.

This was a great motel close to all our favorite places in St. Augustine. We could walk to Old Coast Ales and Osprey Tacos. Don't miss these two places! The beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious enough for our family of 4. The pool area was fun for a quick evening swim with our family. The pool could use a little clean up but still a nice area. The lobby had a nice little area to sit and restroom. The coffee machine in the lobby made lattes and cappuccinos as well as a regular cup of coffee. Nice to have the options. There is not an ice machine for coolers but there is ice and water for reusable cups in the lobby.
