Great value!
This is always a great stay for us, we stay here every time we come into town! The remodeled rooms are great! They have added a lot of new tech updated that needed to happen. Like USB and USB-C ports in the head board which are a nice touch. A/C and heat work GREAT!!!! Road noise is very small considering your on US-1. They have a shuttle that takes you to downtown and back 10am-10pm love that touch. Beds are comfy and sheets are clean and pillows are great! Our room had issues with wifi but that’s not the end of the world, as you have a great signal. Breakfast is amazing here buffet style and good food and options. Only down side is the cafeteria fills up fast on the weekend, and you can’t take your food to your room. Would be nice if there was an options for us to do that when the cafeteria gets filled up. Safe area as well. Staff are fantastic and answer any and all questions. Room lighting would benefit from warm lighting as well. Overall we love this hotel and will always stay here!! Keep it up.

Hidden Gem
This is an amazing location located just outside the main downtown area of St Augustine. The room was clean and spacious, the breakfast delicious with many options, and the service was excellent as well. The free shuttle bus was also a very nice and welcome surprise!

Pet-less in a pet friendly hotel
Our room (#275) was in a bldg where the rooms were being partially remodeled. We had trouble with the shower leaking onto the bathroom floor due to the shower curtain being way too short. The floors/rugs were dirty as our white socks were black. Breakfast was typical hotel fare, although the hot items were not self serve. Shuttle into historical district was a definite plus.

Best for dog owners!
It was so comfortable having dog park here. The breakfast buffet was also impressive. They make the warm items from scratch.
Our room location was right by the street so it was kind of noisy. You could hear cars, train passing, people talking, etc.
I also recommend replacing existing bright light day light builds in the room with more warm white to create more smoothing environment. They are so bright and no dimmer.
Thanks for having us.

Humble but great with dogs
After reading some of the other reviews after booking, I was nervous and skeptical. But upon our stay, we were very pleasantly surprised. We were traveling with our dog and were on the side of the dog park. The rooms were nothing to write home about but it was a place to sleep after exploring town and walking around for Nights of Lights. The hotel supplied a dog bed and bowls. The bed came in very handy as our little guy took advantage of it. They even let him ride the shuttle with us and were extremely accommodating. Would likely stay again if we were to visit another time.

Good Place for the Money
The room had a small coffee pot, microwave, and small refrigerator. The hot breakfasts were also very nice. No phones in the rooms, though, so no way to call the front desk, and no way to call friends in other rooms unless both parties had cell phones and were able to use them.

Night of Lights Stay
It was a very outdared hotel. It hasnt been renovated since the 70s. Shower works well for petite to small build people. I didnt fit, 6 ft tall. But it does the job for a few nights. Didnt make it to breakfast, it is offered. Dog friendly a plus.
