The Bayfront Inn features 36 rooms with waterfront or bay views, equipped with premium bedding, air conditioning, cable TV, and free WiFi. Guest accommodations include queen rooms, double queen rooms, and two-bedroom suites with king and queen beds.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, located perfectly for exploring all the historical spots in St. Augustine. The rooms were nicely kept and offered a comfortable experience, but I felt they could use some updates, especially in terms of amenities. The dining options, while decent, could use more variety to enhance the breakfast experience. It's clear that this hotel provides good value for the location and amenities available, but minor improvements could elevate the experience further.
