Guest Reviews
- Jonathan (7/5): -
- Brittany (4/5): i won’t be coming back, i hope the daughters get out!!! - it was close to the st augustine amphitheater, the beds were decent the male owner or manager didn’t really want to help, simply argued and sent his kind daughters to do what would take seconds to solve, the shower was also cold
- raymond (2/5): -
- Mia (9/5): Perfect place for a getaway that is accommodating, affordable, and centrally located. - The staff was very friendly and accommodating, the room was clean and of a decent size, beds were comfortable, pool was clean, location and parking were both excellent. I will definitely be back to this motel! There was nothing we did not like about the place. We wish we would have been staying for a longer period of time. Hopefully next time we will have a longer stay.

- Tammala (9/5): Lion Inn - nice and the bed was so comfortable. that i couldnt stay longer
- Anneli (8/5): Great location and good value. - Clean rooms, very friendly office staff, super convenient location. Easy to walk to Amphitheater or historic downtown. Rooms had refrigerator and microwave. Updated showers. Very good value.
- Vaughn (4/5): - Location not bad There was no breakfast. Not much coffee. Doors to office always locked. Rooms barely sufficient
- Rebecca (7/5): For the cost and location I would recommend the Lion Inn. - The room was very clean. The Lion Inn may be an older establishment but the owners take pride in it and it shows. The beds were very comfortable also. We had an adjoining room that we could hear the people talking very loudly. This was probably because there was an opening at the bottom of the door probably from the carpet height that was there before the carpet was removed. At least they weren’t up late !
- Slay (10/5): - Only a mile from downtown (old town) St Augustine, and about the same from Anastasia island.
- Frank (10/5): - Room was clean and I had no issues, im always worried about bed bugs when staying at hotels so thats the first thing I check before even putting my stuff down and the place was clean. From the bathroom to the beds. No issues.
- Miguel (10/5): Great service - Great Nothing
- Yoser (8/5): -
- Márcia de Matos (6/5): Prática - Proximidade centro Café manhã

- Diana (8/5): - Great location, historic town just a short walk away. Friendly staff and clean. The bed wasn’t the most comfortable but doable.
- Mercedes (10/5): - The location is 5 minutes from the amphitheater! Such a great location. The room was very clean, AC crisp, bed and pillows cozy. The amenities are on the older side but still charming. Such a steal of a price for the location/cleanliness/how comfortable it is! Will definitely stay here again for any future shows.
- Rhonda (1/5): Definitely will never stay there again. - They don't have breakfast. Charged extra for second child. Only allowed 2 Washcloths and 2 towels for 4 people. No coffee pot in the room. All they have in the lobby is coffee which they only have very small cups. No breakfast at all, not anything. The bed was very uncomfortable. The pool had no umbrellas or shade to sit under.
- Mary (10/5): Best Budget Inn!! Clean and friendly! - Really enjoyed our stay! We asked for a room away from the highway and they upgraded us not only to a room away from the highway but a much bigger room. The room was spotless. The location is unbeatable. If we are ever in St Augustine again, we’ll be back! My husband complained that the pillows were uncomfortable and made his neck hurt.
- Christian (2/5): Found bed bugs at 12am. Asked for a refund and went home - Location good Bed bugs!

- Usman (10/5): - Excellent location, clean and friendly staff
- Eric (7/5): -
- Maureen (6/5): It was great to be that close to St. Augustine on New Year’s Eve. - Location Bathroom- couldn’t even sit on the toilet without hitting the sink with your elbow.
- Suziane (6/5): The stay was a good - Clean room, excellent location. I didn’t like it because I stayed in a room with a connecting door to another room, and I couldn’t sleep properly because the men in the other room wouldn’t stop talking. I had to get up and ask the front desk for help. However, the front desk resolved the problem quickly.
- Triana (8/5): - Todo bastante bien
- Patricia (6/5): - Location was good, right by a bar that we wanted to go to. Pretty shabby property and hot water didn't work well, Luke warm 2 minute shower...road noise was really bad, we had a room close to the road. Comforter had a big stain on it.
- Triana (8/5): - Estaba bastante bien
- Rappoport (10/5): -

- Silke (10/5): Sehr empfehlenswerte Unterkunft in St. Augustine - Die Altstadt ist fußläufig in 15 Min zu erreichen. Kostenloser Parkplatz. Restaurants und Brewerys in der Nähe. Dusche begehbar. Zimmer sauber und groß. Es war alles super.
- Victor (7/5): - Bien ubicado
Es un motel, muy simple y sencillo. Para estar una o dos noches cumple bien.
Parece inseguro, pero no lo es, el lugar es tranquilo Instalaciones antiguas, ojalá invirtieran para mejorarlo

- Albritton (8/5): Good location, clean, and budget-friendly - I liked the location. It was close to some hip restaurants and bars, but not in the middle of chaotic crowds. We took a quick ride over the Bridge of Lions to downtown, historic St. Augustine. It is walkable for those who can normally trek a mile or two, round trip It was clean and comfortable. Some of the decor was outdated, like the carpet, but it gave it a fun, kitchy feel.
- Gerard (10/5): -
- Lucie (6/5): -
- Alejandra (7/5): Good location, it needs maintenance and cleaning. - Excellent location, walkable distance to downtown. It needs a little bit of maintenance and cleaning.
- Carla (6/5): -
- Melissa (7/5): Nice clean older motel - -Room was very clean
-accommodating with my husband's service dog
-check in staff was polite -Water took forever to warm up and even when it did, the temperature was lukewarm
-bed mattresses were very firm and uncomfortable
-expect to drive to the downtown historic shops and fort. It's a little too far to walk.
- Kimberly (8/5): - Front desk employee very nice and helpful. Not the locations fault, but a neighbor was disruptive, banging on her door in the middle of the night for a long time. I believe a staff member handled it.

- Angela (5/5): - We like the location, very close to downtown and many restaurants. We can walk from the hotel to downtown. They don't turn on the air conditioning, and the room smells funny.
- Robinet (5/5): Will not return - Location was great Excessive hair in shower
No coffee maker
Dark, dingy
- Casey (9/5): Great little midcentury motel at a great price! - Location is great! Anastasia Island has a fun midcentury retro vibe. There are a lot of fun shops, restaurants, breweries, etc, all within walking distance. Only real complaint is lack of outdoor seating. The pool area has seating, but it would have been nice to sit outside the room. The rooms are comfortable, but the decor is a bit outdated. Like early 2000s hotel. Wasn’t ugly just dated. As a designer, I would definitely play into retro vibe… bright colors, pull up the carpet and refinish the terrazzo floors, etc. but I wouldn’t really call this a complaint.
- John (8/5): Good location, but needs sound insulation in rooms and check wayer heater. - Good location, friendly staff. Older hotel so the walls were a bit thin, the hot water took very long time in sink to come on.
- Victor (7/5): -
- Victor (10/5): Buena estancia - Q todo estaba limpio
- isabelino (7/5): Great place - Location Safe
- Diaz (7/5): -
- Oliveira (3/5): Disappointing Stay - Location Our experience at this hotel was extremely disappointing. When we arrived, we found hair on the bed, on the bathroom floor, and even in the sink. The bathroom floor was visibly dirty, and the mirror had water spots and stains, showing it had not been cleaned properly. The shower water was not completely cold, but it was more on the cold side than warm, making it uncomfortable to use.
We immediately reported all these issues to the front desk, but the only solution they offered was an extra set of bed sheets for us to change ourselves — nothing else was done to address the cleanliness or the shower issue.
For the price we paid, we expected at least a clean and comfortable room. Unfortunately, we will not be staying here again and cannot recommend this hotel.
- Olga Serrano (7/5): - La cercanía de poder caminar la ciudad. Es tranquilo. Que no había papel sanitario extra el producto para el baño malisimo.
- Tetiana (6/5): 145 total for one night - Location beds space of room I like bigger parking Too dark in rooms more quality of soup hot water coffee and tea Better smell in the room

- Bruno (5/5): -
- Taylor (10/5): Weekend trip as a couple, will definitely stay there over and over again! - Small, wonderful location, fantastic price and the rooms were smaller(which I loved, because the room stayed nice and cold!) felt very safe I loved this property. Nothing negative at all.
- Violette (8/5): It was not a bad place to stay, everything was very clean, just very outdated. - There was nothing not to like, we got what we paid for, very friend staff. It was fine, just needed to updated, all around. The color of the exterior building was very bland, not inviting, the two colors used were so similar that they seem blend into one. The exterior kinda lower your expectations of the interior.
