Pretty good for less than $80/night
Pros:

Hotel value. Good breakfast with eggs, sausage, biscuits & gravy, etc. Rooms were remodeled and were nice considering what you pay. Ice cold air conditioning. Nice location.

Cons:

Could hear every car, truck, trolley that rode past our room day & night. The rounds


do not look like booking photos because they have not been trimmed or weeded in a while. Very little water pressure from shower. On our last day, while packing to go, there was a large, live palmetto bug on top of the dresser. I know these come in from outside but I think new windows would help muffle outdoor noise and keep disgusting bugs out!

Great stay in St. Augustine
Pros:

I loved how close the property was to downtown! It saves money by not having to pay to park elsewhere! I like the large king size bed, and how the A/C kept the room cool all night. It made for such comfortable sleeping! This is my new top choice for staying in St. Augustine!
