This was not at all what I expected from the pictures and the reviews I had read. The room was very humid/damp and smelled funny. This is advertised as a hotel but it’s really just an overpriced motel. The bed was not comfortable, sheets were rough and again everything just felt damp. I left at 5 am so I could travel home and actually sleep.

I read several reviews on this hotel and was slightly apprehensive as there were no reviews “in the middle”. They were all 5 or 1 star. My room was VERY clean and the view from the little deck out back was so peaceful. The proximity to downtown and other attractions was great and ride shares were easily accessible. Mikel, from the first desk, reached out a few times via text to make sure the stay was going well, which it was! The train is very loud when it comes through, which doesn’t really bother me, but be advised if this is something that would cause you to leave a bad review, as this isn’t a reflection of the property itself. I would for sure stay here again on a visit to St Augustine when in the marke for a great value!
