The last maintenance was in 1800... great location, friendly staff but we felt like in those Halloween movie buildings. And the information they provide about the Parking didn't mentioned that at 5am I'll be charged as a new day (arrived at 10pm and left at 11am, paid almost $40)

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities

Wouldn't stay here again.

Room was pretty clean but the bathroom bordered on disgusting. There was no place to keep my toiletries in the bathroom. A/C was a bit noisy but worked well. TV was very small...I had to sit right in front of it to read the guide. Also no parking at the hotel so we had to use a parking garage 2 blocks away. A 2 night stay cost $60 to park.

Liked: Cleanliness
No one answered the phone at the front desk when I was having an issue knowing where to park (the hotel has NO load-in area, FYI). The location is great, but that's the only thing good about this hotel. Our bathroom door wouldn't shut properly, there was no rack to hang your hand towel by the sink... It's really just a place to sleep, nothing more.

My husband and I had a great experience at this hotel! We were looking for a cheap hotel around And this room fit our budget. I asked for a non-smoking room with a good view. I was surprised to arrive in the room and it was very clean and very fragrant and a very beautiful view! The shower was small but with a very high pressure. The hotel is old but for those who are looking for an excellent location, low value and staying more outside than in the hotel this place is perfect! Parking is one block away and costs $16 a day.. but our total was $28. I highly recommend

Great location within downtown St. Pete. Everything was walkable and it’s close to restaurants, bars, Jannus live and the pier. Parking isn’t included though, you must go to a parking garage but that isn’t a big issue since it’s in downtown. Cleanliness and facilities could be better but for the price it was worth it. It’s a historical building. Eddie at the front desk was super nice. Will be back for another stay here!
