The motel was built with colonial Spanish style, the whole setup is unique in this respect. Although the structure is quite old it is well kept with good atmosphere.

WORST HOTEL EVER

If I could give no stars I would! This place was awful! Stayed 2 nights because we had tickets to an event in town. Checked in later in the day on Friday and went out to come back to a bed that was the most uncomfortable mattress I have ever slept on. We didn't sleep at all because every time you moved slightly the metal toe kick around the bed made a loud noise. Left later than we needed to for our event on Saturday and we were gone all day. Hoped we were tired enough to deal with the bed again - we weren't. "Woke up" Sunday morning to go to the complimentary breakfast. YUCK! The entrance was gross and the "food" was worse. Cold, rubber eggs and the coffee was so bad - it was dumped out after one sip. We decided we couldn't stay there any longer and went back to the room to pack and leave. At check out - the clerk didn't ask how the stay was - that is a sign they already know. I decided to not say anything at that time because of how exhausted I was - I called the manager the next day - then 3 days later - then a week later. I was then told to go through the third party. That took two emails to then be told that no refund would be given because we stayed. I would recommend sleeping on the street before staying at this hotel. You have been warned.

Perfect for the purpose

As a place to sleep while running around St Augustine and having purchased the Old Town Trolley ticket that would drop us off right at the motel, Villa 1565 worked out very well. The price point was a perfect no frills bullseye. I would consider staying here again.

Pro: Trolly tour stop, price affordable to save, great light source inside room, breakfast basic in usual location but well kept. Con: Outside need annual cleaning and ground maintenance to help appearance reduce motel/inn scenery, room updated however mold will grow because of dampness in room, poor ventilation, shower sprays on floor because of pressure, &update pillows flat/hard bed. Will I stay again ? No.

Excellent location, as it is a stop on the tourist trolley and very close to attractions and restaurants. This is an old property but it is very clean. The beautiful live oak tree and the short walk on Magnolia behind the hotel makes up for the noise from being on the busy street.

Loved having “The Senator” the 650 yo live oak tree on the property! Very convenient, great thai food right across street and Raintree restaurant right up the street. Both excellent! Not a 4 star place but staff were good, would potentially stay there again,

They did great on the photos of the property. When you see it, you will see it’s run down. The room was clean and bed was just right. Would I stay again maybe. For the look of the place I would want to pay less next time.

The room was clean, modern and comfortable. The property contains an amazing 600 year-old oak tree (13 feet in circumference); however, the grounds around it are not kept to the standard this monument deserves.
