My stay at the hotel started off on a rough note, dealing with quite a bit of noise coming from the bar next door, which really interrupted my need for rest. However, I did find the setting along the St. Johns River to be stunning, and the beauty of the grounds is truly remarkable. While the restaurant staff were lovely and helped make the best of the situation, the limited breakfast hours were quite inconvenient. Improvements in sound insulation and restaurant hours could significantly enhance the experience.

My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The Old Florida charm and the historic architecture were truly delightful. However, the noise from nearby events, particularly weddings, was disruptive and ruined my sleep. Overall, it’s a beautiful place with great potential, but it's important to check if there's a wedding event during your stay.
