From the time we entered the property which was considerably earlier than our check-in time. The staff that greeted us at the desk made us feel right at home, told us to go ahead and get something to eat and to look around town while they were preparing our room the food in the lobby was available at that time and we enjoyed a great breakfast. The king size corner room that we stayed in was awesome. My wife and I really enjoyed our stay and I would highly recommend it to travelers. There is no more beautiful or romantic areas in Florida than Saint Augustine.

Although this is not a fancy schmancy hotel, it is ideally located, and the staff is great! The included hot breakfast was a definite highlight! I really appreciated being right by the river and within walking distance of most of what I wanted to see, including the Castillo de San Marcos.
