Looks can be deceiving!
Coffee Maker, ceiling fan, toilet roll dispenser were broke. Check in service was all that existed. No luggage stand, parking is 2 block away. The shower was small, but looked dirty. Not what I expected for this price! Front porch is awesome!

10/10 staff & location!
Wonderful staff, at the front desk & at the bar. So friendly & helpful, very welcoming! The hotel seems to be in need of a bit of an update - very creaky bed, toilet kept running, bathtub/shower probably needed to be redone/updated. Overall great location & cozy stay, just could use a few updates & some sprucing.

Good location, great bar and happy hour. Room was OK - its dated. Bathroom is small. We were on the first floor and it was very noisy. P.S. - No tissues in the room.

Cordova
The Cordova Inn is a charming boutique hotel dating back to 1921. The location is excellent, the staff friendly and professional. Only two negatives come to mind: Most windows are effectively blanked out, creating a bit of a cave-like feeling to the room. Secondly, window air conditioners rather than central. Both these issued will be rectified when the hotel's expansion is completed later this year.
Vernon, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Black mold in bathroom, looks like 10 coats of paint on walls, windows painted shut, out let’s don’t work, no light bulbs in lamps, AC window units blades caked with dirt, old and decrepit……dingy, dingy, dingy. They moved us to a different room on the second night because I’m allergic to mold. The bathroom was better and did not have mold, but everything was still very dingy and rundown.

Beautiful Kitchy Hotel
The Cordova is a beautiful hotel in downtown St Pete. The staff was very friendly, the rooms were pretty and well decorated.

Good
Overall the stay was good. I knew it was a historic hotel so I always have an open minded view of what to expect. Everything was good with the exception that the room that I stayed in was the first room (Room 108) as you enter the hallway from the lobby. You can literally hear everything happening in the lobby. There's a small kitchen and a coffee shop right there. That was the only issue.

6/10 Good

Historic - but disappointing
The Cordova Inn was very disappointing. It is supposedly a "renovated" historic inn, but the renovation leaves a lot to be desired. A noisy window AC unit should have been upgraded to a quiet minisplit system - they are quiet, effective, and pretty inexpensive. The hairdryer didn't work. The old clawfoot tub had no grab bar and very hazardous slippery surfaces. There was no work desk in the room - you had to set up a laptop in a common area. The staff weren't particularly friendly or helpful.

James, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

one night is enough
it is a older hotel with a lot of character. The bar is friendly and fun to hang out at. the bed was terrible. The bathroom was the size of a broom closet you cant close the door and stand in the bathroom. the shower is very old and the size of a camper shower.

Cordova Inn a bit worn...
Construction underway. Construction team started banging and moving equipment at 7:08 am Friday. Fire alarm went off at 2:38 a.m. Saturday, then again at 3:15 when the fire department arrived using sirens, then again at 6:30a.m. for some reason. Then again at 9:00 am. Staff confirmed it's an ongoing issue. Windows now dirty and blocked by construction activity. Rooms small. Towels a bit dirty and aged. Oh well. Seemed like a charming place to be.

2/10 Poor

It was very bad experience. The room was so old and it smells the bathroom omg the worst I ever seen the room it was very cold and the ac on the window did not work on the heated side.And don’t make me start on the noise outside. This construction workers they start making so much noise at 7am I never experience that in a hotel after a night out that was horrible so if you reading this do your self a favor pay couple $ more and go to a better hotel you gone thank me.

Historic Charm
The Cordova Inn was a very quaint older hotel that had updated the rooms and bathrooms, while maintaining the historic charm. The hotel was convenient to local restaurants and other entertainment. The staff was wonderful and greeted me on arrival.
