Could’ve been better but I’ve had worse!

The elevator was broken, they did call and tell us before our stay. The night staff wasn’t helpful when we check in after having driven 20+ hours. But the room was clean until I plugged my phone charger in and then was swarmed by ants from the outlet. Other than that the view was stunning, the ac worked wonderfully!

We did not stay at the hotel. When we arrived at about 10pm we were advised that we had rooms in the 3rd and 4th floor and the elevator was not working. I can understand the dilemma but what I cannot understand is why neither Expedia nor I were advised of the problem earlier so we could have made other arrangements. Fortunately we found a hotel that was able to accommodate us although at a higher price. Not the best experience.

This is my second stay at this beautiful Art Deco hotel. Walking to shops and restaurants is easy, and the short walk along the water to the Pier is delightful. The staff is friendly and helpful, rooms are clean. I hope I can return.

Friendly front desk staff. The only issue was the elevator was broken and our room was on the fourth floor. My friend and I were struggling to get our cooler up the stairs. We made it to the second floor and one of the house attendants swa us struggling. She grabbed the cooler from us and hauled it up we will be back

Amazing location. Seriously. The hotel is a little shabby, but not terrible. Just the basics, no breakfast or anything, which is fine given the access to restaurants. There was an overpowering smell of cleaning products in the room, however. Enough to make me reconsider staying there again.

The guy at the front Desk was very polite and welcoming. I believe his name was Ahmed. He said it was his 2nd day. He was great! The parking situation sucks but it's not their fault, that's just St. Pete in general. The elevator was not working so using the stairs wasn't my favorite part of the stay. We will stay for an overnight trip but maybe not for a weekend. The bed was older feeling, bouncy, and my wife and I were rolling into each other due to the valley in the middle of the mattress. The smoke detector was covered in a bag so if there was a problem we may not have known. Other than that, the staff was awesome, the room was exactly what we needed for an overnight stay. We could stay again, if the elevator worked.
