Sad excuse for a bed and breakfast
The furniture looked and felt like old Good Will vintage. The bed was uncomfortable. What looked to be a sofa cushion was blocked by railings and couldn’t be used. The shower was a trickle of water. The pool that appears in the picture was dirty and blocked by fencing. The outdoor furniture was old, dirty and uncomfortable. The food was of poor quality. The excellence award at the front entrance is not applicable. The housekeeper was pleasant and helpful.

I really wanted to like this hotel. I love old architecture and can forgive a lot when it comes to quirks of old hotels. And this one was in close to an event I was at in so it was convenient. I tired to call to see if I could get a slightly early check in and the phone number on every email I received and from google was incorrect. So I went there, the door was locked, no one would answer it. There was a sign to call a different hotel. I called them, they gave me another number to call that went to a voice mail that was full. I had to go to an event so decided to just try again later. Came back at night, tried calling several times later and finally got in touch with someone at the other hotel who had to radio someone to let us into our room. Saturday and Sunday nights we were not able to park at the hotel, all their lots were full, despite the fact that we paid $25 for parking each night. Also, although they cleaned our room every day and replaced the toiletries, they never replaced our toilet paper so we had to go and buy our own. With a bit more attention by the staff, this could be a really nice place to stay. It has charm, architectural appeal, and is in a great location. Super disappointing they don't seem to care enough to make that happen.

The old house was beautifully restored. That being said, its kind of noisy. The old wood floors creak whenever anyone walks around. The house is located on a corner, in walking distance to the waterfront and local stores and restaurants. However, because its on a corner, you can hear all the traffic. Starting at about 6:30 in the morning you can hear every motorcycle and bus that goes by. The woman that checked us in and made us breakfast was very nice. We were just there in February, so the pool area does not look like the pictures, maybe because its still winter. I'm guessing that the renovations have not been completed yet.

The staff was nice, but the property lacked upkeep. The pool was out of service, and doesn’t appear will be usable any time soon. Property is for sale, so owners aren’t putting any money into upkeep. Excellent location for exploring downtown St. Petersburg. Don’t drive a large vehicle as parking spots are very small.

Lady who checked us in and served breakfast was very nice and accommodating. Property was generally rundown, not at all as pictured on Expedia. Room was minimalist with no mirror except small one in bath, no hair dryer, no clock, etc. Ext doors had minimal locks and back exit didn't appear to be locked. We were housed in the building next door which looked more like a dorm than a B&B. Breakfast was made to order as long as you wanted eggs, sausage and toast. Fresh fruit was an apple. No ice available. Outside area was not maintained 1 table with 3 mismatched chairs. Pool and hot tub were not functional. No explanation of what amenities were actually available even though they were listed on website. There were men sitting in the walkway all day long who smoked nonstop but did not appear to be guests. Mattresses were not comfortable, not enough pillows. Pictures on website need to b e changed. For an additional $40 we could have stayed in a nice hotel. We traveled 900 miles and were very disappointed. Would not recommend or stay again.

Location is great, but, the facility needs a lot more attention to detail as a lot of little things were ignored. There was nobody at reception when we arrived, we called the number, waited on hold for 15 min, finally, they hang up on us when someone came from the inside to open. That person did not speak English at all, luckily we were able to use Spanish, even though he was Albanian (!). Mattress was horrible... but, all was clean and smelled nice. A so-so experience according the price we paid.

We waited 10 minutes outside for someone to come let us in. We were not greeted with any information. We were shown to our room which was extremely outdated. The room was very clean, except for crumbs in the microwave. Breakfast was from 9-10. We were able to attend on our last morning. We had to ask to get a cooked breakfast. It seemed one lady was the only employee. She was very nice, when we saw her. She seemed more like a background employee, rather than customer service. However, I must say this was not expensive. We happened there due to lack of availability in location. It had a great location. We were walking distance from the Birchwood.

Worst bed and breakfast you will ever find!!!
No one works the front desk, rooms are pretty dirty and run down, pool was green and covered in leaves, took us an hour to find someone who worked there, didn’t check us in just handed us a key, front door is locked but anyone from the street can access the house and pool from the side door. Felt like we were being punked or in a American horror story episode. Super creepy, run down, overgrown lawn, and absolutely no service what so ever, can’t even find an employee, oh and the phone number is disconnected. We legitimately thought these people just killed the owners and were living there
