Beautiful room and location.
The room was perfect for our overnight stay. Comfortable and clean with some coffee for the morning. Bed was extremely comfortable and the bathroom was very nice. We were able to walk down St. George street, through the plaza and all around to see the beautiful lights. We did arrive in town prior to check in and wanted to get a parking pass so we could explore. This was a little complicated. We had to stop at the Bella Bay and then were directed to a second location down the street. We received our pass there and were then directed to a parking lot further down the street. That part was a bit confusing for us. You can drop off your bags at the Bella Bay prior to parking. The walk from the parking lot to the room is approximately 3 small blocks.

Room was not ready. No information how to check in. But then staff was super quick, friendly and helpful! A bit pricy but overall ok.

Know before you go
The room was clean and comfortable. Great location on the bay, well kept property and amazing staff. Guests should be made aware that they will be carrying their luggage up an outdoor staircase and offsite parking requires walking a mile and a half (potentially in heat and or rain) to go to and from their vehicle. This is a great place at a good price but its not for people with physical disabilities and that wasn't made clear prior to booking.

No on site parking so pretty inconvenient. The parking spaces are about a 7 min walk. It was a hot walk. Room was sufficient. Lots of stairs. Carpet was a little dirty. Bathroom was very very small but updated. My husband barely fit in the shower. Great location we walked everywhere.

For just to sleep at night it was good. Good location. Parking was completely inconvenient and far away from the property. No staff or service whatsoever. No view as they advertised. No housekeeping. Not very secure since entrance to rooms is always unlocked.
Would not stay here again.

We never got a parking pass for our vehicle. Which you have to have to park in their lot which is 6 blocks away. We wanted to take a bath and the tub stopper doesnt work.

The location is fabulous! Saint Augustine is such a beautiful city with so much going on. The beach is also gorgeous. The parking is off site which is a little inconvenient. The mattress in our room was soft and saggy. It needs an upgrade. Overall the inn is charming. The staff is very accommodating and we had a great stay.

No front desk…can’t park by the hotel or you’ll get towed…”hotel” is attached to a literal restaurant/bar and the entire bar feels like it’s in our room and we can’t sleep at all. Avoid this hotel with your life..you couldn’t pay me to stay here again and I can’t believe I got suckered into this place (my wife is furious). RUN FROM THIS PLACE

Quaint stay, great location.
Quiet little place with 5 rooms with a quaint bar underneath and fun restaurant across the road. Rooms clean and spacious. Big tub. Bed and linens nice.
Off site parking is an issue. Probably five blocks away. Would be nice to offer a bike or something to get back and forth.

In general we had a good experience. Two things though that we were not satisfied about were that we couldn't watch tv because the control didn't have a way to make the voice work. Another disadvantage is that the parking is about six blocks from the hotel. So you have to walk back and forth rain or shine to get the car.

I stayed here for two nights with my girlfriend for a small St. Augustine vacation and it was perfect. The room was very nice and extremely close to the center of town which made it a very easy walk to the different shops or restaurants. The only issue I could see a potential visitor having is the parking distance, as it's a distant walk to your car. It might have taken us around ten minutes to get to their lot, which for us was fine as we walked everywhere anyway, so if that's your plan you should be okay. Other than that, their lot is in a location that feels safe so I never worried about leaving my car for a long period of time.
