    The restaurant next door has the best waffles

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    This hotel is in great shape, very well kept & clean, great AC, pool is well kept & in great shape as well. The rooms walls have good sound proofing. You may hear doors closing now & then but that's about it. Traffic noise is even very low surprisingly & thankfully. So if you are like me & just want a nice, clean, safe, quiet hotel that you literally can walk out your door & be at an establishment of your choice within minutes…. Well, look no further! It hits 🎯 on everything

    Location was perfect

    Great location easy to go in and out walking or driving

    The air conditioner made squeaky sounds every hour! Then the shower could have been a little cleaner around the edge of the of the shower doors and there could be darkening curtains!

    We’ve stayed here before and will be back. Thanks BW

    It is an older motor-court style hotel. It was clean and the AC worked well. Check-in was smooth and fast. Problems in the room were small but significant. Our particular room was close to the office, which meant close to the road traffic. Earplugs needed to get any sleep at all. The shower was a major issue. Great water pressure, but you have to be really small to shower. The shower curtain rod in 4 inches inside the the tub and was barely held into the wall with a molly in the drywall. As a result water pour onto the curtain and then onto the floor. A curved shower rod would make a world of difference. We will not stay again purely for the noise.

    Room was small but very clean. Had a fridge and microwave. Bed was comfortable. Seating outside looking out at the water was nice. Location was great and walkable to the areas. Would definitely recommend.

    The only downside was the $25 overnight parking fee.

    Perfect location

    Very convenient

    Though not fault of the hotel's management - street racers raced up and down Avenida Menendez from the fort to the Bridge of Lions and back from around 8 or 9pm until after midnight on the two nights (Friday and Saturday night) we stayed at the hotel. Gunning of the engines and backfiring the engines were very loud and prevented us from falling asleep before they stopped around midnight. A couple times they even purposely backfired the engine on Hypolita St right behind our room. The desk clerk said she did not know why the St Augustine police do not stop the racers. At the same time she did not mention if hotel staff ever call the police to report the disturbances caused by the cars. For a quieter evening in your room, you might consider a hotel not on this stretch of Avenida Menendez.

    The location was the best asset. Room met my needs. Staff was helpful and cordial.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Hotel location was excellent, right across from the water and central to everything. We were able to choose a first floor room which was appreciated since we had luggage and there is no elevator. There was very little room at the foot of the bed between the bed and refrigerator, which made it a tight squeeze to walk.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Easy check in process, even 30 mins early. Friendly front desk and a wonderful parking assistant.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    We had a great experience. It is a great location, and we were lucky enough to get the room with a huge picture window overlooking the water. Definitely worth the cost if it is available.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Staff is super nice and location excellent to the Fort. Clean and near every food you could want.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    It was right next to every thing. Just walk out the door and you’re there. You will have to pay for parking but it was cheaper than parking on the street.
