Amenities were not well maintained. Building was rundown, dirty and surrounding green areas were not well manicured. Ice maker in our building was not working and the one that worked was dirty. Room did not look clean and the shower had no water pressure.

The place was charming, the room (170) was nice and accomodating, and the bed was big and fairly firm, and we slept like rocks. The tiled floor was cold and could have used a mopping, but the shower was big and worked fine. The pool was well maintained and the breakfast was good and abundant, with all the normal breads and cereals, juices, and sausage, eggs, gravy and biscuits-nice. What really stood out was the wonderful front desk lady Joanna. She was so sweet, kind, helpful, effortlessly wonderful, the best hotel person we have ever run across. The property was very nice overall, with plenty of minor faults, but you can park right near your door, and it is free parking, so we liked it.

Okay for Overnight

The staff was super friendly, and the property is on the trolley route. The rooms had been updated but the walls were thin, and there was a lot of rust( which does come with the sea air). Overall for an overnight trip to St. Augustine it was okay.
