It started with our check in person and how hard she made it to just check in. It was as if she was doing us a favor and using all her "power" to make us wait. It was unprofessional and unnecessary treatment. I hope you are able to talk and retrain this person

Disappointed

It was good. The front desk check in lady was not too friendly. Said onsite parking but neglected to say there was a nightly fee of $20. Parking is a nightmare and someone has to help you park. They parked us on one side and the room was on the other side. Hotel offers no cart for luggage. There is also a termite problem in the room. we are hoping we did not bring any home with us. I took pictures of one of the bugs and several wings. Great spot next door for breakfast called marys. Biscuits and gravy was amazing. Walkable to lots of tourists spots.

Very noisy

We arrived and the front desk was not very friendly. They charged you for on-site parking on their own property. They did not tell you that the place would be very noisy from music at clubs and bars that were directly behind the hotel. Music was very loud that things vibrated in the room. This is definitely not a place you would bring your children to. Music did not stop until around 2:00 in the morning. I went to front desk after I woke up explained how unhappy I was and they only charged me for one night because I checked out that morning.

Great 3 day break.

The hotel is located in a great spot and ideal for walking to all of the old center of St Augustine. Parking is a bit cramped but the attendant is great at getting everybody as close as possible to their room. No frills, but nice modern rooms and all you need for a stay in the area

Even though check-in had been completed online, Check in had to be completed again with Sheri who was not friendly, but was efficient. Room was not yet ready so we returned later and met Latoya who was downright rude, unfriendly and unprofessional. Even though all information and credit card had been previously provided to Sheri, Latoya demanded the information and credit card again without explaining why this was necessary. She even raised her voice to demand the credit card again when we asked why. Parking attendant was efficient and friendly. Room was clean. AC unit was a bit loud.
