Terrible hotel, would not recommend! We arrived with friends, and it was an absolute disaster from the start. It quickly became clear that this hotel is not worth the money. 1. Cleanliness is a total disappointment. As soon as we entered the room, we could immediately smell stale air. The bed linen was covered in dust, and there were visible stains on the mattress. It was obvious that someone had stayed there before us and not much had been cleaned. The blankets and pillows smelled musty, and even after we requested a change of sheets, it didn’t improve the situation. 2. The bathroom is a nightmare. The bathroom was full of hair — on the floor, in the sink, and in the shower. It looked like no cleaning had been done. The plumbing was old and filthy, the faucet barely worked, and the shower had only lukewarm water. It felt like we were in a rundown hostel, not a hotel. 3. No light in part of the room. There was no light in part of the room. We tried asking the front desk about it, but that only made things worse. The dark corner of the room was completely unusable because it was pitch black. 4. Front desk — rude and unhelpful. When we complained about the lack of cleaning and the issues with the room, the front desk staff responded in an incredibly rude and dismissive manner. They told us that it was “normal” for their hotel and that nothing would be done about it. This is how they treat paying guests. Overall, it was a complete failure

The property is currently under renovation and will become part of Hilton operations. I am guessing it’s probably going to be one of the best properties to stay in at Saint Augustine beach

The fact that customers have to pay for parking in the hotel parking that’s not even gated is quite ridiculous. I’ve been staying at hotels every year on vacations for 20 years now and have never heard of hotels charging for parking. Also when checking in, it would be nice to be greeted with an employee that makes you feel welcome and not like you’re in court paying for a citation of some sort. Employees like that will push customers away. This stay was not worth the cost. Room was clean. Shower was better than most. A bath tub would have been nice. Breakfast was not available as advertised.

Place was very nice. Little disappointed that we ended up coming during some construction and wasn’t aware prior but other than that it was good.

I liked the lobby. THe atmosphere of the room is "cold". We did not have any transportation we could not go anywhere to get food. An unexpected fasting situation. Really not your fault. Liked the ocean view.

Theres no restaurant, the entry doors are broken, leaving you to use use the side door thats never locked. Our 1st room had sand on floors, no towels & partial hygiene products. Lighting is terrible, no vending other than by pool, pool towels are thin, small & flimsy. The door to bathrooms obstruct the sink area & theres not a single shelf in the showers to put products on. Not even a soap dish. Rhonda, the employee on our 2nd night was very good & helpful tho. She's the best thing the hotel offers.
