Disliked: Staff & service
Property was average. Upgrades were evident, but bathroom wall next to toilet paper holder was dirty. Called property prior to booking because I wanted to ensure a pet friendly room, and they told me that Expedia sold rooms that were often times not available. Then they wanted to charge me $22 a night more than Expedia wanted to charge. We went through Expedia anyway and got the cheaper rate. They told us they weren't going to, and not only charged it once, but charged it twice. They actually charged us more for the pet fee then their website stated. All in all, I don't think I'd go back again.

Great place we would recommend

This hotel was perfect for our visit to St. Augustine. The beds were comfortable and the room was clean. Breakfast was good with Hot food choices like scrambled eggs, sausage and hash browns as well as other options for breakfast. Staff was friendly. We enjoyed the hot tub after a full day of touring.
