This hotel has a great location. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The parking is about 5 to 7 minutes away from the hotel and not exactly ideal. We stayed at the older building which is beautiful and quiet but it needs TLC.

Fantastic location in downtown St. Pete, cute room and hotel with a great bar. Window A/C was loud and should be replaced with a mini split to bring this place into the modern era, but overall a great stay.

Very quaint and characterful. Loved the lobby coffee/bar and outdoor courtyard. The location is great, we didn't have to get in our car once except to take a boat tour out of Gulfport. We stayed in the old part of the hotel, which I enjoyed for its historic character. Could have done with an AC wall unit over the window unit and better mattress/sheets. We used the gym on the rooftop and appreciated the view and brand new equipment. I'd stay here again but opt for a room with upgraded amenities next time.

Was fortunate to stay in their newly opened wing. Super clean, great amenities, friendly staff. Parking is nearby and validated by hotel (sundial parking garage). Ver walkable to local restaurants and Jannus Landing. Will stay again to visit Dali museum and the Pier. Nice coffee shop in lobby and they are working on a rooftop bar.

The location is spectacular for the price! You're only a few blocks from practically anywhere you want to be. I stayed in the "newer" part of the property for 4th of July fireworks. The bar in the lobby and the rooftop bar was rocking. The staff did an absolutely amazing job managing all the traffic. The room itself was brand new and so was everything in it. It was styled perfectly and spotlessly clean. The only suggestions I would make is it would be great to have a ceiling fan in the room. The A/C worked perfectly but it would be nice to be able to have some moving air when you come in from the sweltering heat. Secondly they need to buy the parking lot next door. You can park for free a few blocks away which honestly isn't a big deal, however on site parking would be nice. Third a pool would be awesome! These are all small suggestions overall it was a spectacular value for the location on a holiday weekend. I wouldn't hesitate to go right back.

Great place, friendly staff, we stayed in the old part of the hotel. They are building a new part. The bathrooms in the old part of the hotel are very nice but are "period". small toilets, pedistal sinks, claw foot tub/shower. everything worked well no issues at all. Just wanted to note to all that this isnt a "resort" bathroom. Beds were comfortable. TV/WIFi no issues. Would stay here again.
