Older hotel, but clean and maintained. Check-in staff was super friendly and helpful. Hot breakfast items included sausage, eggs, and potatoes. Otherwise, selections of cold cereal, toast/bagels, and fruits. Seemed to have internet issues first night, but problems were corrected by our second night. Would stay again if in the St. Augustine area again.

This was a great bargain. Super nice lady and check in. The room was clean but the tub area could have been cleaner. The pool looked great but it was too cold to go for a dip. Would stay here again.

Room was clean. Severely understaffed it seemed. Praise the people that signed us in by themselves. Crowded at desk. Morning crew working very hard. Trying to keep up being understaffed it seemed. Nice area. Close enough to beach and old St Augustine. Pet friendly. Lots of pets. Have Dog walk plus a large field in back. No cable TV. You have to use their WIFI and your sign on to NETFLIX or other apps. Cable would be nice for local and world news, weather. Would recommend.
