Room 212 the worst! They pick up the trash every day at 7 am, plus they have all the tools next to that room and the employees are on the room talking and was always very noisy

Perfect place to stay!

The staff at this hotel were wonderful. We were treated as valued guests from the moment we checked in. Our room wasn’t large but recently renovated and well laid out so it didn’t feel crowded. Everything was spotless clean and in good working condition. The location is perfect! Everything is within walking distance. About a 2 minute walk to Castillo de San Marcos fort. The trolley stops right in front of the hotel. We had our choice of multiple great restaurants within a 2 block radius. We’ll definitely be back again!

Great Location!

The location can't be beat and the common area overlook is a great place to watch the main road and river activities. Close to the best restaurants and bars and Castillo de San Marco.

Lots of options nearby. Clearly is a redone motel. Found bugs in bed alive and dead immediately left. But is a good walkable spot otherwise if that doesn’t matter to you
