Very bad experience, we had to leave. We couldn’t spend the night in that place. We couldn’t use the pool, the pool wall’s were black of mold. There is not inspection or control of anything two couples were drinking and playing inappropriate loud music.

The staff are really nice and the place is very convenient and decent for the price only thing i didnt like was the metal bedframe when you mive around on the bed if ya know what i mean sounds like its scraping the floor and the chair was old in our room looks dirty guess cause of overtime stains but the breakfast was great had several hot foods like eggs with cheese in the middle and sausage,biscuits and gravy,cereal milk,apple juice and orange juice,yogurt,bananas etc. The pool is awesome too was quiet not crowded plus we went too the goo goo dolls concert got back to the room late around 11pm and me and my wife went swimming and the staff didnt have a problem with it or kick us out cause says only open til 9pm so was great especially enjoying the water after a hot concert so that was cool

The Villa 1565 isnt bad but it does not look like what is advertised. The bed was very comfortable and the shower is nice. The livingroom furniture in the king suite was not comfortable at all. The first night we had a swarm of what looked like flying ants swarming ohr door. When we opened the door they flew in. So we basically spent the first night killing bugs. The room also smelt very bad like old musky/mold smell. We had to light a candle anytime we were in the room. The lady at the front desk was very nice and helpful.

This MOTEL was completely misleading. The photos online do not match what the property actually is. If I would’ve known this was a roadside motel, I would not have stayed.

3 star? No way!

Motel (not hotel) was ok but fell short of expectations. Not sure how this property got rated a 3 star property. It’s a motel set up—all one floor, drive up to your door. Pictures really didn’t reperesent. Pool super small and separated from parking lot by chain link fence. Rooms ok but pretty clinical. Breakfast was mid. If it was a 1.5 star and priced as such, I’d stay again—it was fine, just didn’t meet the standard that was advertised.

I was in one of the king size bed rooms in the front of the property. I was worried I’d hear traffic from the street or the trolley that goes through the property. I didn’t hear anything! The breakfast is great, the location worked well, the interior of the room including bathroom is modern and the staff was helpful. I look forward to staying here again.

Room was clean and AC worked wonderfully! The location was great and within walking distance of several attractions as well as the bus tour so I did not have to use my car while in St Augustine which was a plus. Breakfast was average but hot and edible.

The stay was great. The only complaint I have, which is no fault of the hotel, is with the guest in the room next to us. It was a family with a small child. They continually fussed with each other rather loudly. The baby woke up around 4:30 and the adults argued with each other for at least an hour. It made it hard to go back to sleep. Other than that the stay was great!
