Older but quaint building. Very clean and comfortable. Staff was very pleasant and helpful, from front desk to pool bar and restaurant which were also excellent, convenient, and tasteful. great location in the city. Parking was available, looked limited but was always able to find a spot. Would definitely visit again.

Very clean, quiet, helpful front desk staff. Location very convenient and the Hollander next door was convenient for a few meals and pool sitting. I would definitely stay at the Avalon again.

Cute place, clean and nice staff. The room was very dark without enough lighting. It was facing the street, so it was somewhat noisy from the street sounds. The bed was very comfortable and I slept well until street sounds woke me too early in the morning.

Room was ok for an older hotel. Fairly clean. Staff neither friendly or unfriendly - mediocre. The Air conditioner was too loud and ran non-stop all night. Could not figure out how to change to auto mode. Bathroom tub/shower could use grab bars to assist older guests. Tub was a bit slippery despite raised dots in the tub. Had to be extra cautious. Would have preferred a walk-in shower. Was not allowed to check in before 3 pm and had to be at the Mahaffey Theater at 2 pm so couldn't check in until after 5 pm. Parking lot was almost full. Had to drive all the way to the back and around corner to find a spot on dirt road. Only amenities available at time of check in was free liquor, which was not appealing as a non-drinker of alcohol. If I return to St. Petersburg for an overnight visit, I will probably choose to stay at another hotel. Quaint but not "my cup of tea".

I love staying here. The rooms are small but comfortable, the staff is friendly and accommodating, the parking is free, and the location is very convenient for jumping on the Looper and getting around town. The afternoon social on the porch is a great way to meet people and share experiences. I always enjoy coming back.

I was upgraded to a bigger room which was amazing. This was my first time staying there. I usually stay at the Hollander but from now on I will be staying at the Avalon. The complimentary wine and champagne from 5-7 is also a great bonus. Will definitely be staying there again soon

What a lovely little stay! Great location, can walk to a lot of local bars/eateries nearby. There is a free shuttle service that’ll take you anywhere within 10 blocks of the hotel, and they’ll pick you up too! Steve, the shuttle driver was so kind and gave us great recommendations on what is around town. Our room was clean and very comfy. We will absolutely be coming back to stay.
