Cheap St. Pete Option
A cool old hotel that has not been well-maintained or updated well. There was hot water, clean sheets and the door locked. A great cheap option for St. Pete. Close to all the fun restaurants and bars.

Great location
The Hotel is older, but had everything we needed in terms of location. The room was clean, but there was no soap bars in the bathroom. The staff is excellent and helpful. The Hotel is in dire need of upgrades. OVERALL A 7 OUT OF 10.

The property is charming and quaint.The area around the property is lovely to walk around and enjoy shopping and dining. I would suggest that the hotel provide coffee in the mornings. The small outdoor restaurant downstairs has good food.

Nice old building, it felt cozy. I didn’t like that my room was next to the elevator and kept being woken up the entire morning due to the noise.
