Perfect place to stay!

The staff at this hotel were wonderful. We were treated as valued guests from the moment we checked in. Our room wasn’t large but recently renovated and well laid out so it didn’t feel crowded. Everything was spotless clean and in good working condition. The location is perfect! Everything is within walking distance. About a 2 minute walk to Castillo de San Marcos fort. The trolley stops right in front of the hotel. We had our choice of multiple great restaurants within a 2 block radius. We’ll definitely be back again!

Lots of options nearby. Clearly is a redone motel. Found bugs in bed alive and dead immediately left. But is a good walkable spot otherwise if that doesn’t matter to you
