I gave this place 5 stars bc of how awesome hospitable kind & precious Roman is - front desk. He made our trip better than it would’ve been if we didn’t meet him. I think he’s the happiest most kind human ever. The pool was nice and clean/ quiet. Basics for breakfast - can’t complain. In a great area. We will go again bc of Roman.

Great location, great owners and staff, great bed, really enjoy coffee and breakfast offerings every morning. Pool water looked like it was due for cleaning. Our room temp was ok, AC really struggled with the July heat. Only reason rating was 4 and not 5 stars.

We can't speak highly enough about the staff - Daniel, Emma, and Roman - who went well out of their way to ensure that we enjoyed our stay. The facility definitely needs updating, which is currently being done room by room, but even though "tired" the rooms were remarkably clean. Breakfast is standard continental fare. Air conditioning is window units but extremely effective. The pool is nice and typically uncrowded. The facility is extremely quiet, both the location of the building itself and the rooms individually. We would definitely stay at the Independent Inn again and recommend it to others.

This hotel had a name change since we booked it a few months ago. There isn't someone in the office if you need your luggage held, but they did say this will change soon with the new owners. I believe they are in the process of remodeling and upgrading things like A/C's etc... It definitely needs an upgrade. Overall not bad, but I wouldn't of booked it if I'd known the transition situation.

The stay here was pleasant & quiet. We stayed in room 5. It was small but cute. The shower will take a long time to heat up, and the toilet sits very low to the floor. There are not many outlets in this room and the one by the chair and bathroom door dosent work. We had also anticipated using the pool during our stay, but it was not running and dirty the entire week. Kind of bummed about that. Breakfast consisted assorted breakfast cereals, and plate of cold cuts ham slices and cheese, Bagels, bread, fruits. The coffee was in unmarked thermos's and didn't stay hot very long. Overall the property is in a quiet, walkable location, convenient to the Marina and Duval St.
