This place exceeded my expectations. The staff is super friendly and the service feels so personalized. They were making sure at all time that we were having the best experience. They helped us to find touristic places and everything was super cleaned. The bathroom essentials had a 5 stars hotel quality. I would definitely Recommend this place.

Overall good stay recommended

We stayed in the suite. It was very roomy for all 5 adults. It would be nice to have at least a large curtain the close at the vanity and the rest of the room so early birds could turn in the lights to get ready for the day. Our room was very clean. The staff was kind and courteous. I could not find any coffee or tea but no worries there is a Mc Donald’s and a few coffee shops not far. I was fine with the walk into town about 1/2 mile on sidewalk. There is a pedestrian crossing to make it easier and a shuttle stop outside with a bench. The pool was nice and great area for relaxing. No elevators so need a bottom room if cannot do stairs. Do bring your own pillows, the pillows were super soft and small. The whirlpool could use some cleaning on the bottom the pool was clear and clean. I don’t think they had a breakfast if they did we never made it over there to check it out. Overall a good stay.

Musty/Mildew smell

Would not stay here again. The hotel smelled like mildew and mold. There were cracks in the walls/outlets with residue of mold buildup. The fresh air outside smelled better than inside the hotel. The pictures were very altered/brighter; when in reality the rooms were very dark with lack of lighting. There were parking charges - not listed on hotels.com and had to pay upon arrival; which felt like this was dishonest of the hotel to charge extra fee for this.

Disliked: Amenities
I primarily stay at hotels, rather than motels. This is not a hotel. Hotels have room doors that open to a hallway. Motels have room doors that open to the parking lot. This is a motel and I should have checked this out better before booking. It is noisy in the front rooms due to the road and noisy in the back rooms due to the train track. The 'breakfast at the restaurant" is only available on the weekend. During the week, all you are offered is coffee. That is it. You would think that they could at least offer a pastry. There is also a $15 a night resort fee. This is not a resort and is not close to the beach.

Disgustingly dirty...

The room was filthy. So much so, we only stayed one night of our two night stay. It was so damp in the room the tile floor was wet and slippery. So we had to used towels to dry it. Included is a picture of the towels we used showing how dirty the tile floor was.

Pleasantly surprised!!!

We were pleasantly surprised by all the extras the hotel offers. The extra measure of wrapping items that could be used. The cute monogram sticker on the toilet paper. The room itself was quite large and offered anything you could need. Even an ice maker in the room. I was a little worried that the train tracks were so close but this proved to not be a problem at all. I think i heard the train one time in the morning, however we were already up and i really dont think it would have woken me if i were asleep. Mikel, messaged us right away to check how the room was and throughout our stay to make sure we had everything we need. The location to historic St.Augustine main attractions is so close, less than 1 mile away. We would definitely stay here again!!!

We had such a great stay! I don’t have any complaints/ room was clean, beds comfortable snacks in front office cheap and that is open 24hrs. They even give you a card to rent movies from a kiosk there.—Jose and Leslie went above and beyond and really made us feel welcome. Truly appreciated their kindness and care.

Ehhh

The room was okay. Staff wise nice. It was definitely older outside and the inside was alright. Bed was bad. The train was so load and came often. The people above us were stomping all night. The room smelled like a scent over cigarettes. Could have been worse but definitely could have been better. Most likely will not stay again.

Staff was great, location easy to get around St. Augustine, rooms simple but comfortable. Our room was right next to the highway but it was nice and quiet inside, great nights sleep. The outside and some details inside could use some updates but for a quick trip the hotel is perfectly fine.
