This is a well kept property in the historical area. Once you park your car (about $25) you can walk to the historical sites and restaurants. The hotel is on the hop on, hop off trolley route so that makes transportation very easy. We enjoyed our stay.

Rooms were clean, staff were not super nice but helpful when needed. If you are a light sleeper stay away! It is extremely loud, the walls are paper thin, there is a bar of some short right behind the hotel and the music playing is loud and you can hear it word for word. The window coverings are part sheer and let in a lot of light at night. The best part about this hotel is it was walking distance to EVERYTHING! It is super convenient. The beds were comfortable as well.

Room was good - clean and well taken care of. Water could be hotter in showers. Noise level behind rooms was a bit loud. Parking is tricky and at a premium thus the $25 daily charge.

Location Is Key to this hotel it is probably the best location we have stayed at and we go every year. Staff was very nice and friendly and the shower pressure was amazing and water always hott. They do warn you about noise and supply earplugs and the noise is pretty bad. The alley behind hotel has a bar and we could hear word for word all the conversations and drunken drama fight through the back wall where the AC is till after 2am. Everything else is good don’t need to use vehicle at all everything was within walking distance but if you need your quiet sleep this wouldn’t work.

Location, staff and cleanliness could not be beat. Our king room was very nicely appointed with new furnishings and finishes, although very tight with little space to walk around the bed. Everything was so well done, though, that I could not possibly give it less that five stars. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. The parking guy was so friendly and spot-on with his job. He had it down pat to make sure everyone had their space and the right size for each vehicle. We had two bikes locked to the back, and he gave us a small truck space he had saved with an orange cone. We could walk to all of the main attractions from here in just minutes. We never had to move our car, once parked. Try to check-in on the earlier side if you want an upstairs (2nd floor) room with a beautiful view of the bayfront. We ended up on the first floor with no view, but appreciated the convenience and everything else about the property. This motel seems very wrongly rated at two stars. It behaves like a four-star.

Our stay was very good, we loved St Agustine and the location is great. Easy access to parking and near restaurants. The only detail… the staff. They were “ok”. The one that help us with the check in in the night was serious and not as welcoming as u expect after a long drive to get there. In the morning I went in to buy something and I asked where we can have a good coffee for breakfast. She reply she doesn’t drink coffee that I may try here and there. Not bad, but I expect a bit more of service, considering the rate we paid.
