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.
