The motel had a super convenient location right in the center of historic St Augustine, walking distance to everything. The rooms felt more like sterile hospital rooms with bright lights and no color, close to the road, which could get noisy with passing cars. The staff was very pleasant and accommodating for early check-in.

The location was amazing, right in the center of historic St Augustine, making it easy to walk everywhere. A disappointment compared to the motel in Crawfordville, but still pretty close to everything in St Augustine.

The breakfast offered a variety of options like omelets, scrambled eggs, and casseroles, but due to some staffing issues, breakfast had to end early at 7:45 am. Overall, the food was pretty good.

The motel had a buffet with French vanilla coffee available, but not many details were provided about other amenities or facilities.
