Hotel St Augustine

Good room, spacious, fully functional. More of a beach hotel and amenities were basic, but ideal for a few nights and just off south beach.

I read the reviews before we went. They generally weren't good but that wasn't our experience. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious. It did smell a bit dank but other than that it was very clean and had everything we needed. We didn't go down for breakfast so can't comment on that. We made use of the sun beds on the beach. We had to pay $20 odd extra for an umbrella but the staff there were also very friendly.

The St Augustine was the first place we stayed on a round trip from Miami to Key West and up again. Only located 3 streets back from Ocean Drive, this place was a perfect place to spend a couple of days exploring South Beach, and is within easy walking distance of the local institution that is Joe’s Stone Crabs. Breakfast is a little on the light side, but there are enough eateries in the area to easily keep you going if you’re willing to explore a little.

The hotel was well situated very close to the main attractions. However, the rooms were outdated and in need of new carpets. On the plus note, there was a lovely shower in the room.

Great location. Breakfast was very simple everyday the same breakfast:-( breakfast room very small not enough tables to set and eat. Very noisy air conditioning. Room was with bad smell. WiFi very slow :-(. Car park charge £20 per day. Not many car park bays.
