Perfect place for a quick getaway

The accommodations were just right for a weekend getaway being in a short walking distance from shops and the historic district. It was a quiet tucked away one bedroom with a nice size kitchen. Communication was great as well.

Outstanding location

We found the accommodations to be exactly as described. Everything was very clean, and the hostess was very accommodating and communicative. The location, spaciousness of the unit, a private courtyard to walk our little dog in made this an ideal property, for us , or anyone wanting to be with in walking distance of all of the downtown attractions, yet have the privacy and spaciousness of a private home. We would highly recommend this property and will be returning!

Exactly What I was Looking For!

This was exactly what I was looking for and 100% as pictured. I especially loved being able to walk to everything historic St. Augustine has to offer. The space was perfect from me and my 40 lb standard poodle; there was room for her travel crate and bed. The well-appointed kitchen meant I didn't have to eat out every meal, and everything was clean and welcoming. Communication with the host was quick and helpful and the pet fee process was simple and appropriate. I cannot wait to come back!

Cozy apartment near historic city center

Property was within a comfortable walking distance from historic downtown St. Augustine. The apartment was cozy and comfortable with all the necessary amenities. The off-street parking was a bonus and the neighborhood was quiet. While the backyard isn't a recreational area for dogs, the neighborhood was safe enough to walk our dog without any issues. Huyen was responsive and answered all our questions. We look forward to a return visit

What’s NOT in the pictures

I’ve stayed in a lot of VRBO properties and alway look for the same requirements. Parking included. King size bed. Top reviews. And location to attractions. This one hit it all so I immediately booked for our weekend getaway. Issue number one. Parking. Perhaps I’m extra cautious but I immediately thought there was no way I could leave anything valuable in my vehicle with the parking situation. Genuinely did not look safe. Interior; After walking down a TINY path to the entrance, I opened the door and was met by the immediate smell of mildew. I chose to believe maybe it had been closed up for a bit but when I noticed the dehumidifier running I knew it was a known issue. The bathroom has double doors that exit the exterior of the unit that are frosted glass paneled which was odd enough, but the shower is tiny. I noticed cracks in the shower floor and stepped in to see if it would support any weight. The floor was spongy and a brown water immediately bubbled up from the cracks. There’s no way I can bathe in there and not need a bath from my bath. I will say this. It’s is an adorable unit and is exactly like the pictures. Well decorated for what it is. And the linens appeared fresh. But it is an old unit and the water damage at the base of the doors and shower, sloping and buckling floor boards, and mildew smell take away all the charm. With asthma and a penicillin allergy, we chose to avoid any mildew or mold and got a hotel room at the Hilton down the road instead.
