Table lights shut on & off, fridge was dirty, didn’t know about the resort fee and $10 for key. The room was ready but a $25 early check in fee was a bit much…

No staff on property. Digital key app impossible. Peeling paint, dirty window, weeds taking over. My room was tiny and not comfortable. Snower drain sluggish. General air of neglect. Would not recommend. Was expecting way better for the price.

We were given an address. This was for one of their properties. There are at least four. We were not told which one we were staying in. Every door is locked at every property. There is NO staff on site to help. We sat on the front steps of the address we were given for 45 minutes attempting to log in with Direct Key. After six tries with six different passcodes, we were finally able to open the front door. It was only then we discovered we were in another building. Where was it? We had no other address. I had attempted to check in beforehand but the only options I was given were early check-in (for a charge or late check out, also for a charge). We spoke to six other couples and all six had trouble getting into their room. One gentleman told us he did not wish to use his phone to get into his room, so had to drive to some warehouse to get a key. We were there for two nights. WiFi stopped altogether after 24 hours. There was a coffee machine, but no breakfast. Apalachicola is a lovely town, but our lodging experience was not good.

The property is a historic building. Unfortunately my room was built unhistorically next to the only road into town. So, literally the windows rumbled when a vehicle shot past! Even with shades drawn the headlights from vehicles created shadows in the room at night. I got no sleep. And the king bed being so soft, sank as if it were going to touch the floor. A better mattress would have helped. There were plenty of pillows which I used for back support and to drown out the street noise! As far as the cleanliness goes, I hate to see dust on lamp shades and the floor. Generally being an older bed and breakfast place, I can let things slide. Broken knobs on the jacuzzi tub, and plumbers glue on faucets are a turn off. Very little quality maintenance is being done here. Despite the poor water pressure, the shower was clean! Kudos to the cleaning staff for the shower. Overall, I can’t rate the property, and be fair. I just wish the owners would give a traveler a good faith notice like this room is discounted as it is positioned close to the main traffic coming into town. Regards

Average stay in Apalachicola.

Coombs Inn has one foot in the past while using modern amenities. Mixed results, but an average stay in Apalachicola. Staff was very helpful, but check in was spotty. Thanks to Jarred, it ended up okay. Just don’t expect a modern experience. Digital keys were a disaster. Grounds were in need of some work.

I preferred 2 drive 6 Hours Back Home and not stay

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ This was hands down one of the worst lodging experiences we’ve ever had. The place felt like an abandoned ghost town — not a single guest, no staff, no service. “Luxury” is a complete lie. The photos online are extremely misleading. Self check-in = no one to help you. The bedroom looked nothing like advertised, and when my spouse went into the bathroom, the bathtub was stained with awful rust. The kitchenette was dirty, the trash can was full, and one of the sofas downstairs had a broken armrest. I’m a disabled military veteran, and this property had zero accommodations for accessibility. When I called and spoke with Jared, the representative admitted it wasn’t right and said they’d approve a refund. But when Hotels.com followed up, the manager suddenly denied it — forcing me to go through my bank to dispute the charge. A total scam. If you’re looking for an isolated, uncomfortable, and completely unsupported experience, this place will deliver. Otherwise, stay far, far away.

There was a terrible smell from the water, while no fault at the hotel, they could’ve at least had candles or something in the room. The inn was right on the road and traffic noises were unbearable.
