3 night stay. No maid service. Good beds at least. Air conditioning was minimal. Thank goodness for ceiling fans. If I go back will stay somewhere else
Gary, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Surprised by ratings on here

I felt like I was in Schitt's Creek. Very old, nit updated at all, but close to the beach.

2/10 Poor

Nasty

The staff was very nice; however, the hotel is very old and dirty. Gross, actually! Great location for the beach though.

Love the retro style and the proximity to both the beach and the Vilano pier.
Tedd, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was outdated…. however, if I was traveling with my family &/or wanted to be super close to the beach I would definitely recommend this hotel for the price point!

Jessica, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I was told we would get a kings size and queen size bed but only got 2 full size bed. They lie and it seemed for shady people staying there. It was dirty.

This is by far one of my favorite motels in the area. The beach is just steps away and the staff is amazing!!
Heidi, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great vintage hotel right on the beach. Nice pool. The cool neon sign would be nice to see repaired.
Brook, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Cozy Spot

I have stayed there several times before over the years. It’s a sweet place! It’s only a 2 minute walk to the beach which is the best perk! I wish they would fix the neon sign with the name, rabbits and top hat. It’s been mostly out in recent years. Unfortunately, next door they’re building one of those gentrified communities next door. I’m an astrology/astronomy geek and my sole purpose was to see Venus, Jupiter, Sirius, Mercury and the Sun rise (between 4and 7am). Unfortunately, it was pouring with thunder and lightning. When it stopped raining it was totally overcast and some lightning.

Rooms, are very nice
Travis, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I love that it is retro…..not many places like this. The murals in the rooms are so beautiful and unique. We’ve stayed there four times so far. The beach is right there. It’s easy to get to St. Augustine. Absolutely love it!!

The beauty of the mural, we enjoyed so much.

Wonderful stay and price for a weekend trip.
Maria, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I loved the retro charm of the hotel, the bathroom had beautiful green tile, The bed was comfortable, nice size fridge and freezer coffee maker, microwave and sink with great Wi-Fi. The property is steps away from the beach, Publix, several restaurants and a cute coffee shop. The hotel did allow dogs with an additional fee, and the beach does allow dogs as long as they're on a leash, so that was a big plus.
