Thank you Flagler Inn!! After having a terrible experience and cancellation with a B&B nearby, my wife and i needed other accommodations. I saw good reviews on their site, it was less expensive and available. The woman on the phone was very nice (although a little hard to understand feom language differences). When we arrived, we walked right in and were assisted immediately. The lobby was nice and clean and the agents were wearing masks. They were both very friendly and accommodating with me and a broken heel. After going to the room i was even more surprised. A very nice, clean room with more amenities than i expected for the price. And to top it off, when my wife went to get ice; an employee asked her if she needed anything! Awesome place, awesome service...just plain AWESOME!! read more

We booked this place based on the online reviews. Well, when we arrived, it looked cute from the outside. The lobby was ok but outdated. We noticed that the building was very much like an old motel 6. The doors were on the outside and two floors. No elevator! The outside was very dingy..there was garbage thrown all over on the walkways. We entered our room, and I could immediately smell the mold and mildew. There was an AC wall unit. I had to turn it on 62 to make the smell dissipate. It was freezing! It was horrible because the temps were in the 40's and I was fighting a cold. There was no phone in the room. The bathroom was so small, we had to duck between the toilet and shower to open/close the door. The shower was dirty. We were otw out that night during a busy holiday season. We asked the front desk girl where the park and ride area was and she had no idea. The place allows pets. When I walked my girl, there was garbage and dog poop in most areas surrounding the building. When I got in the shower the next morning, the water pressure was horrible and the water, even though turned all the way to the hottest, was lukewarm at best. I took a cold shower! That was enough for me. Our trip was supposed to be through New Year's Day. We spent one night, then decided to cut our trip two days short and head back home to south florida. Who wants to spend new years totally uncomfortable? What a disappointment this place was. We will definitely not be back! read more

They don't clean the rooms. They don't clean the towels. Every single towel had stains from previous use, some of the stains were yellow. Disgusting. We were too scared to check the bed sheets. Asked for our room to be cleaned while we were out exploring St Augustine and got back to nothing being cleaned. They didn't even enter the room. The water was cold at night and we were forced to take cold showers as well. Unbelievably bad service. read more

Hotel rooms smells like mildew our room had a busted door looked like someone busted it in also shower was flirty disgusting dirty floors in bathroom bed veey veey uncomfortable pillows are small and uncomfortable spoke to man at desk and he was very rude never stay there suvks read more

The bathrooms were stained on the walls, the towels had stains on them, the breakfast was mediocre, and once the fruit was gone you were outta luck. The foam paper plates and utensils were awful- I expected at least plastic plates and silverware!! Housekeeping came when you gave them 24 hours advanced notice to come clean the rooms. There was a guy there cleaning the rooms in regular clothes working or ....... Even the chair that the front desk personnel sits on has that black electric tape running across the chair to cover the hole it had!! The main lobby smells musty and old! I paid too much money for what it was worth!! read more

The vibes of the place weren't great pulling up. Then having the disinterested (at best) desk clerk check me in didn't give me the warm fuzzies either. And the stay only got worse from there. The room was dingy and smelled strongly of mildew. As for the breakfast, let's just say I overpaid for it. And it was free! The clerk (different person) was rude and clearly didn't want to be there. I wish I checked the reviews better beforehand instead of just going by the rating. Needless to say, this was a first and last stay here. read more

Room was Musty, cobwebs in all corners of room. Breakfast was not great, hard boiled eggs was the egg choice. Best part was the coffee. Walls had not been cleaned stains like mustard on the bathroom wall and fixtures have never been wiped. Overall dirty room, Not much in making it look good. Location was great. Close to downtown St. Augustine. If I owned that hotel every room would be inspected and I would try to update if possible. Could be great employees probably do not get paid much So slowly but surely it looks like another hotel that is in decline due to lack of professional and proper care. Clean the walls change out linen design and put the effort in to keep up the outside and the grounds. Personally I would stay at another hotel probably closer and more expensive but nicer and cleaner. read more

We decided to book a 2 night stay here. The first day we got here was a bit crazy. We waited for our room to be ready at 3pm Friday February 28th 2025. Once check in was ready i paid 253. 16 for my two nights. Got our cards to the room. When entering the room, the room was dirty, the bedsheets looked like someone just finished sleeping in them, there was trash everywhere. I quickly closed the door as I was in shock and didn't know if someone was in there. I went up front to the front desk and the lady was nice enough to give up a new room number. So I went up to the new room (second room) the key wasn't working. I went back up front and let the lady again I let her know that the key wasn't working. She asked if I could wait a moment as she had customers in front of her, I told her it was no problem and waited by the door for her. As I waiting by the door of the second room key that was givin to us. A lady walked out of and asked why we were trying to open her door. while we were speaking to the lady in the room, the lady at the front desk was walking up the stairs in ah she was confused as why there was someone else in the room that we were supposed to be in. The lady from the front desk then told me that today was a busy day and it was becoming stressful. Then was given another room everything was working fine. We settled in and left for the day until returning when the lights did not turn on. We then realized that there was no power to the room and that's where the frustration set in. We now have been through 3 rooms within the last 4 hours. The gentleman that we spoke at the front desk that evening had no idea to what was going on, in frustration we asked to switch rooms with a difference of what we paid for the room we originally booked. The gentleman at the front then told us that we couldn't get reimbursed for the room that we were going to be switch to next or we would just have to leave. We decided to walk away from the situation and the come back to it as we might have agreed with what was said. When we came back we took the standard queen bed, with no idea what we were going to be walking into the lamps worked but not wall lights. I went to the front desk again to explain to what happened again they asked us to speak to the manager in the morning with severally apologizing for the incident. Our experience hasn't been the greatest and will be speaking to the manager and to someone else about this as well. As much as it wasn't a good experience for us we don't want that to happen to other people as well. I could not get a hold of management, as they will not call or email me back. read more

Clean and comfortable hotel room! Had a pleasant one night stay and found this inn conveniently located close to downtown St. Augustine. Just about a 6 minute drive. Staff was friendly at check-in and check-out. Grabbed some breakfast to-go. Wasn't great but honestly better than most. read more

A completely redone hotel that does a good job providing all you need for a weekend stay in the area. We booked the hotel online and showed up on a Friday mid-day. They let us check-in a little early so we could drop our bags. We were in the building that was across the street from the main portion of the hotel. The room was on the second floor and clean. We were able to find a good spot to set up our pack and play for the little one to sleep in overnight. The floors are not carpeted, so I would be a little worried that first floor people might be able to hear a lot of noise, but I prefer an uncarpeted room cause it's easier to see it's clean :) The front desk staff was friendly and we looked around the front lobby, gym and pool area. We didn't end up using any of the items they offered onsite, but it's because we were busy exploring the city. Overall: A We'd stay here again! Good price, clean rooms. read more

For a great price, only one night.. the bed was very comfortable. And things are very tidy and clean. The TV was a little Old and needed to be replaced. But I do have to say the sofa bed had bedbugs. I complained to the front office and they said they haven't had bedbugs in two years. read more

DO NOT STAY HERE. This place looks charming online, however you will find that this is a bait and switch. For the sake of this review, I will try to keep this as brief as possible. Understandably, for the price and it being a boutique hotel, we knew that things would not be one for one. What we did not expect was the following: a foul and musty smell, dilapidated furniture and fixtures, unclean bedding and surfaces, and to top it off--a BLACK WIDOW SPIDER. The latter did not seem to concern any of the managers; they dismissed us and acted less than apathetic. We immediately switched hotels and they would only refund 2 out of the 3 nights booked. It was a complete fiasco. read more

It's okay, nothing to write home about. It's an old style motel type place (all exterior doors) small bathroom/shower area, with sink outside the bathroom - had a old/musty smell until the A/C was cranked up. Not overpowering but detectable. It's Florida, I'm sure the humidity doesn't help. So, overall, not the best place I've stayed, not the worst...just okay....would I go back? Not if I had other options, like a Marriott or something, but it served its purpose while I was there. read more

04/5 thru 9 2025 Negative first: We booked the King Suite which says in the description there is a coffee maker. There was not. When I asked the desk clerk about it all she could say was "we make the coffee here," I told her that the room description said there is a coffee maker and she said "not that I know of," She didn't seem to care. The breakfast was a huge disappointment. Some kind of egg patty with sausage and bacon. The usual breads and a waffle maker. The juices were watered down and the coffee was weak. It prompted us to go down the street to Denny's for their buy one get one for a dollar. I did use the fitness room for a couple of workouts. The usual treadmills and rowing machines and an adjustable bench. All they have for weights is 2 sets of the adjustable kind in an off brand copy of the bow-flex ones. A bit challenging for many exercises that you hold 1 weight with both hands. But you can make it work by holding the frames. Positive side: The room was spacious and quiet. Very simple. NO FRILLS. Lot of empty space. TV channels were all with commercials. read more

Very nice place. My only negative is allowing smoking at the pool. It permeates throughout.

Enjoyed my stay here. Good, safe location. Clean room. The patrons weren't sketchy. Everyone seemed kind and peaceful.

Pros: Very nice employees. Helped with all our problems we had and were very apologetic. Cons: We get there and get checked in. My girl and I head to the room they told us to go to. We take our bags up and we are met with the room being cleaned and not ready. The gentleman cleaning our room called the front desk and told them the situation and we waited a good 10 minutes until a we got a new room with all our bags still in hand. We finally get in and get cleaned up and start to rest a little and we hear the door handle start to make noise. An employee then opens the door and just walks in and then sees us sitting in the bed and realizes and says "Oh I am so sorry. I did not know it was occupied at the moment." Luckily I was under the covers because I was half undressed. We let it go and the night goes by. We then get up and start to check out and I tell the gentlemen who helped us with the room situation about what happened and he told me that the employee who walked in on us is the same one who switched us to that room. Now how do you not pay attention to the room you just put someone in and then go and walk in there. Makes no sense to me and gave us real sketchy vibes. Also there was construction on the road near the Inn and was going all night. Not the hotels fault of course but still an inconvenience. The rating would be lower if it wasn't for the two gentlemen who helped us out and for showing some care for the situation. Lovely little place but the place itself needs a little bit more organization so it doesn't run the way it did. read more

The front desk of the resort team is the amazing point of this resort. We showed up at 9 AM. We thought it would be a bonus if there was a room ready to drop off luggage, but completely understood when there was not. The front desk clerk was wondering at helping us with our tour so we did not have to drive down to the city. She also told us she would call us once our room was ready. I said not a worry as we will not be back until after 4:00 anyway which was check in time. She stated I will just call to let you know in case you need it. We headed out for our day in the city. We decided at 4:00 we would head back. I was not worried that we did not get a text. I figured it was just an overlook and since it was not needed I was fine with it. However, we arrived at the resort at 4:30 and we found out the room was not yet ready. We stayed in the lobby and played cards until the room was ready at around 5:30. I asked how it was not ready when you knew in the morning we had already arrived. She apologized and told us there were only two housekeepers. Once again, this person was also very friendly. We got into the room and the room was mostly clean. You could just tell that the housekeepers were just trying to get through their rooms and did not have time to deep clean. It was not bad so we did not say anything. We headed back out for the evening. We returned and opened up the sofa bed to find there were no sheets on it. We had even told front desk my daughter would be using it. We went to the front desk and they just handed us some blankets to make our own bed. There was no apology about it not being done. The next morning we checked out. The front desk person was away. The person there said the front desk person would return in just a minute. It took her 10 minutes to return. She did not ask how our stay was and there was a line behind me so I did not share my experiences. If this hotel can work on their housekeeping issues it would be a great place to stay. read more

Would we stay there again? Maybe, and that's a very loose maybe that's leaning towards no. The people that work at the front desk is what keeps the hotel alive. The bathroom looked nice but the shower was more of a dribble of water hitting your body. The tile floors were filthy, I cleaned them with warm soapy water and used their towels to wipe them down. We didn't try their free breakfast, so, no comment on their food. The breakfast is served in the lobby and it looked nice and clean. On the plus side, the mattress was heaven and the in room coffee was really good, we used bottled water to make the coffee. read more

Doesn't really capture your attention when you are driving by, but this Inn features excellent room size, design, and accommodation! 4/5 for comfortable beds, cozy and clean, large desk/ table, extra long vanity for multiple people to get looking good and ready for the "gram", picture perfect!! Facility is larger than it seems from the road, has classic inn/motel design with exterior halls and entrances and a nice place to sit outside if you like. They are close enough to downtown to walk but provide a shuttle to downtown for a $7.50 fee. ( not optional ) Pool and activity area is private, clean, has some air hockey and table basketball for kids, ( or young at heart grownups !!) place your bets! They also have street bikes for rent, nice feature. 4/5 for activities. Pet friendly, but no special accommodations for your pets. 3/5 Continental breakfast- minimal but included. 3/5 Staff is friendly but minimal; which is not a negative, just a report. Juice, water, snacks, ice cream available. 3/5 read more

We really loved the space and cleanliness of this room. It had a nice modern look to it. It wasn't too far from downtown, but it would be a good hike. The lobby was very nice and the front staff was friendly. It's too bad they don't utilize that lobby with a breakfast though since it is so nice. Looks like they used to have breakfast here. We have a family of four and only got two passes to go next door. My little girl doesn't eat much so I thought maybe one ticket would get us both. It's not a big buffet, but had eggs, sausage links, biscuits, gravy, grits, taters, bananas, and chocolate pudding. My wife didn't eat because she was uncertain if she would be charged for what was offered and opted to grab McD's around the block. Half of everything was almost empty while we went through. They did refill when we were about done. I was charged $8.47 for a meal. I didn't know about it though until I saw it on my credit card from the Jaybird Inn when we got home. So restaurant must have charged Jaybird. That was a little disappointing for me. The restaurant owner seemed very nice. She's owned the place for about a month. I wish her well in getting it turned around. Would I stay here again? Sure! Room was very nice for us. St. Augustine was beautiful. read more

This is the second time we have stayed here and have yet to have any major complaints. Minor things would be there was a few hairs in my shower upon check in, there was a couple large ants in the bathroom, the pool towels they provided are rather tiny (too small even for my 7 year old). HOWEVER, none of those minor things truly affected our stay. Got to start by saying the price is unbeatable and allows us to not spend a fortune on a place to stay so we can better enjoy our vacations year to year. The staff is super friendly and goes above and beyond to accommodate guests. The FREE breakfast is delicious and made it possible for us to save money each day so we had more to spend shopping during the day and dining out in the evenings. There are trolly stops at the hotel for both the Ripley and Old Town tours which is super convenient. Even without the trolly stops the hotel is super conveniently located to down town historic district and less than 15 mins to the beach. We enjoyed time in the pool every day, although the pool area is small it is absolutely pristine and clean. It's a saltwater pool which is a lovely change of pace from a tradition chlorine pool and has plenty of patio furniture and lay out deck chairs available. Very family friendly and the outside chairs and sitting area for each room is such a nice and unexpectedly enjoyable touch. There is a delicious Mexican restaurant in the parking lot that we have become "locals" at and will continue to return to, being able to walk over there and enjoy a couple margaritas and then return to our room is such a luxury that is not wasted on us. We definitely enjoyed both of our stays and will certainly be returning in the future. Thank you Flagler Inn for becoming a staple in the Rutland Family Annual 4th of July Trip. read more

I enjoyed my stay at the Jaybird's Inn. I got the recommendation from Yelpers, and I made my reservation on Booking.com. They attempted to call a few days before to confirm my reservation, but they didn't leave a message. I called them back (just in case), and everything was fine. I was only there in the evening to sleep, so I can't comment on anything but that. LOCATION: It's located 1.7 miles from the heart of St. Augustine's historic district (I.e. Flagler College). It wasn't hard to get there, and I Ubered most of the time. They said it was okay for me to leave my car there. It's located near some train tracks, so as some Yelpers said, you'll hear the horn until around 11 PM and beginning at 7 AM. I'm not a late sleeper, so that didn't bother me. If it does, bring some ear plugs. Also, this is not too far from a main road, so you will hear some traffic at night. No big deal to me. THE ROOM: I stayed in a room across from the restaurant. They were nice and renovated. My room was a bit warm/humid, but I ended up turning on the AC and that solved the problem. The rooms were clean, and the beds were very comfortable. For the price, you're getting a great value. I didn't have any issues with getting hot water within 15 seconds. They have a lot of amenities, such as a fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. SERVICE: The front desk was very helpful. Everyone was nice. There's breakfast included. I was able to watch Netflix on the wifi, just make sure you are connected to the wifi that has a stronger connection to where you're located. I'd probably stay here again. read more

The Flagler Inn - Room with king bed. - Hotels Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

The Flagler Inn is definitely a 3-star hotel. The room we were originally given was run down and dated where the door wouldn't close completely and the bathroom countertops were makeshift counters. We were able to switch rooms to a better room that was more kept to date. For breakfast we were given yogurt and fruits in a bag due to covid. The yogurts were expired. The price isn't bad for a 3-star hotel. The hotel is near downtown. (Photos are from the updated room) read more

Just came home from a short visit to St. Augustine. The Jaybirds inn was a pleasant surprise. Outside it doesn't look like much. But they have obviously re-decorated and it was very nicely redone. The staff was uber friendly. breakfast was simple (I hope you like waffles), and the train could be heard passing by at night. Those would be my only complaints. Overall great place. read more

Decided to stay here for our 2 day get away (one night) in St Augustine. Very happy with this hotel. It's incredibly close to down town (2 miles to be exact) and for the last minute price of $109 for the night, it topped even Airbnb for an incredible bang -for-buck ratio. The room itself was immaculate and looks to have been redone quite recently. The outside of the place could use a little face lift but don't let that fool you, it's well worth the stay. Special amenities in the rooms included Starbucks coffee, goose down pillows, and my girlfriends favorite, make up wipes! The only reason it's not a perfect 5 star is just because the walls may be a tad thin. A lot of outside noise tends to be heard. Will definitely be returning. read more

Two stars, one for affordability, one for one for a spacious room and comfortable bed. However, it wasn't as clean as I would hope, furniture in the room was broken, and there is no housekeeping until you check out.

All in all, it was fine for just 2 nights and the price was good, but next time I would look for something else. read more

I have yet to hear from anyone. the inside was bad but the outside butts and trash all over. Just wow sad sad sad. They never even came to clean up or freshen up room. read more

Well this hotel Jaybirds in San Augustine, is 3 stars but I think it should be 0 stars, it's sooooooooo dirty , the staff are very unprofessional, cool water, if you ask for towel just forget it , because they don't have more left , breakfast well it's breakfast I didn't like it , so if you want to relax after museums Jaybird's is not your hotel , the picture you see in their profile just forget it because is nothing like that . read more

While I wasn't expecting the Ritz or the Plaza Hotel, many online reviews led me to believe this hotel was well worth the price, from the staff to the rooms. I have never felt more like I was pushed into a bait-and-switch situation. First and foremost, the front desk staff was rude and couldn't be bothered to answer questions or begin the check-in process. Although this left a bad taste in my mouth I pushed it aside with hopes it was an isolated incident and my experience with the room and the rest of the trip would redeem this poor experience. Boy was I wrong. I have listed below the red flags that will keep me from EVER visiting this hotel again: * Front desk staff rude, unwilling to answer questions. * Parking lot dirty. * Room beyond outdated and filthy. o Bed sheets had both semen and blood stains on them. Wall behind bed was sticky and stained. * Dust, dirt and grime in bathroom and vanity area. * Sofa was stained, dirty, with a strong odor. * Door to hotel room warped, leaving huge gap between door and door frame, allowing light to come in. It is my hope this hotel will do what's right and refund the money I spent, but given how I was treated upon arrival, I'm not holding out hope. I will never recommend this hotel to family and friends and will post my review on all reputable review sites. read more

Any time I can enjoy a sound sleep while away from home goes a long way towards making me think favorably of the place where I am staying. And a good night's sleep is exactly what I enjoyed here. Jaybird's Inn is a moderately priced, conveniently located and all-around solid place to stay while in the St. Augustine area. Perched along the busy multi-lane Ponce de Leon Blvd., it might be wise to request a room far away from the heavy traffic. It helped alleviate some of the sound from the surroundings. A nice neighborhood and another commercial strip is just behind this inn so there are lovely places to stroll and run nearby. Nice not to be locked and blocked in by a network of high speed highways. The inn has bikes or you can bring your own which might be the best way to really get around this somewhat compact city. I saw a good number of folks leisurely cycling which suggests the area may be more bike-friendly then most. I liked the overall look of the room which featured flooring rather than carpeting, lots of lights, a good size desk with comfortable chairs, a coffee maker, microwave and mini-frig, spacious shower and a stylish color scheme. The room charge includes a continental breakfast which was basic but quite adequate with baked goods, yogurt, make-your-own waffles, cereal, oatmeal, coffee and juice. There is a lovely pool area and even a fitness room with some weights, bands, stability balls etc. on site. This would seem like a great place for people who don't need room service or a lot of luxury but want a comfortable, contemporary place to stay that can be the perfect hub for a day of sightseeing, outlet shopping and taking day trips to the beach. Big plus and points for the quantity and quality of the bathroom towels that were thick and plentiful. read more

Pros: the staff was very friendly and helped us get to our touristy destinations with much grace. Cons: the toilet was it bolted to the ground; it's good that neither of us got drunk, we may have broken the toilet trying to take a poo. The bed had no headboard and was not bolted to the wall; every morning we woke up about a foot from the wall with our pillows on the floor. All the pillows in the hotel were so tiny that we ended up buying some at Walmart. Super cons: finally, the art. These hideous vulture pictures hung on the wall and watched our every move. We had to cover one of them with a Walmart bag to keep our sanity. read more

Excellent place for the price . The rooms were very clean ,spacious and sound proof. The pool was clean and kept very nice and balanced. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The first night of our stay we had a problem with the air conditioning unit in our room ,but the staff quickly got us into another room which was actually bigger than the one we were in . The breakfast in the morning was very good and lots foods to choose from. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting and I am definitely going to book there again. Love this place! Check out the Mexican restaurant on the premises as well. Very good food. read more

We booked this off of hot wire. The pictures lied. The place was old, outdated, and our room stunk. And there's no way it was Covid cleaned. And it wasn't cheap. Some guys come in next door stand outside smoking and drinking around 1 am. It was a classy place. You may want to pass this one on by. read more

Jaybirds has officially made it on my "1 star" list. Everything from check-in to check-out was a pain in my rear! The young lady that checked us in was not helpful in any way and it seemed like I was just taking up her time as if she had something better to be doing than assisting a customer. More than 1/2 of the parking lot was taped off/closed for reasons that we couldn't immediately uncover so that made parking quite the challenge. The spots filled up rather quickly. On to the room... Definitely left something to be desired. Given it was under $100/night but certain things are intolerable from any hotel. From an AC unit that dumped water on our already disgusting and un-mopped floor the whole time -- to hairs in the sheets/pillows -- shower head didn't work correctly -- the coffee pot was not cleaned in what looked like about six months -- I could keep going but I will spare you. When we checked out the incredible rude young lady with some kind of island accent and glasses, treated me like I was bothering her! Once checked out I asked for a manager to speak with and they informed me that there was no management present... on a Wednesday morning at 10am... yeah right. She just gave me a business card and said "call and complain if you'd like!" I was shocked. I asked for her name and she just stood there with a crooked smile and plain out refused to give it to me. The ladies in this hotel need an attitude check, pronto! Also, they need name badges! What kind of dump doesn't even give their employees uniforms? I can't stress enough what a sh** show this place is. I will not be returning and no one that I know will ever step foot in here, or their restaurant for that matter, while in St. Augustine! read more

A good value. Clean. Helpful staff. Nice breakfast & great coffee. Consider this place.

We stayed here 2 times & it is/was perfect. CLEAN comfy & all around great folks work here. Every employee had a smile & just seemed happy. Not the usual grumbling from workers. Small problem like a light was out was attended to ASAP. Front desk dealings are so nice & greeted with a smile. My wife wants to 'get away for a few days'. We looked at other hotels/motels. But she's going back to stay at the Jaybird. The $5 off or free breakfast is great. I suggest taking advantage of the $5 off & have a wonderful start to your day. Even though the complimentary was fresh & good. I'm kinda lazy in the AM. Management takes a real concern that everything is as should be. They truly understand what it is to be a great hotelier, Can you tell that we're happy we found & like this place? Lou & Eva Karen read more

This was room 103, beware of this room unless they've fixed the issues of this particular room. I arrived late around 10-11pm driving from South Florida, I honestly don't know how I picked this place - the reviews were good so I thought I was getting a decent deal? But this turned out to be a nightmare, I couldn't get a lick of sleep and I really didn't feel like paying more money to find another hotel, as the Jaybird Inn already charged me for this night. This was the worst stay of my entire life. I've traveled around the world and stayed in hundreds/dozens of hotels. I've stayed in motel 6's when I was a teen that were better than this place. The refrigerator in my room made a constant ringing sound which never stopped. It was like a constant ringing in my ear and my partner's ear. She ended up stacking pillows on her head to get to bed. The toilet in this room was broken, it couldn't flush properly. I figured out that the filling mechanism was shot and you had to press up on the lever to get water to fill into the basin. I reported this to the hotel staff but they couldn't get me another room and I had to deal with a non-functioning, constant draining toilet all night. I ended up just shutting the bathroom door so at least that would drown out the toilet noise. The A/C in my room was broken, kept making some whirling noise, than a whining noise, than a rattling noise. We couldn't turn it off because our room was hot and humid so it was either sleep in humidity or deal with the noise. I reported my issues twice to the front desk, someone came over but she couldn't help at all. I didn't have a manager I could speak to, so I was SOL. There's also a train track near the hotel strip, but I knew about this so I expected the trains to be honking at 7am. I guess the room was clean? Everything else about my stay was absolutely terrible. read more
