The building is old but they have done a nice job. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The location is fantastic and within walking distance of almost anything you would want to do in downtown St Pete. We would definitely stay there again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
I would not recommend staying at this hotel. The cleanliness was very poor. The towels clearly had not been washed from the previous guest, as there were multiple hairs stuck between the folds of several towels. On top of that, the noise level is unbearable. The floor literally vibrates from the music in the bar below, so don’t plan on sleeping until all the bars in the area finally close. To make things worse, the Wi-Fi is practically unusable. Short videos won’t even load on YouTube. Overall, not worth the stay.
