My husband and I have stayed here 3 times in the Martha Lee room and love it! The owners are very friendly and do an excellent job keeping the room clean. It has been perfect every time. They serve a continental breakfast and the coffee is great! Can't beat the price for an efficiency style room. Love the decor!

The room smelled sour when we first opened the door. After further investigation we discovered the bathroom shower had used bath cloths hanging in it and mildew was on the shower wall and curtain. There were stains on the pillow shams and pillow cases. We had reservations for two days and our room was not cleaned the following day plus... More

The inn keepers themselves were very pleasant, however we will NEVER go back. As soon as we got into the room we could smell vomit. After further inspection we found that there was vomit on the drapes in the shower. So freakin' disgusting!!!! The only thing scary about this place was the uncleanliness!

The owners were wonderful- very hospitable & informative. Our room was cozy and comfortable. The property was adorable with several sitting areas, bright colors, and variety of plants & flowers. The perfect spot for a romantic getaway.

My boyfriend and I spent the past Thursday and Friday night in Martha Lee's room for our 1st anniversary. We were met by will as soon as we pulled into the driveway. He was friendly and helped us check in and get settled. Our room was awesome! So much character! Almost like staying in a museum of neat antiques. There... More

My wife and I stayed here on two different days in November, while in transit to Key West and then home to Virginia. We found the Ancient City Inn while searching for unique and eccentric bed and breakfasts in St. Augustine as well as the other stops along our vacation journey. The Ancient City Inn was the third B&B we... More

We absolutely love this place it is on San Marco Ave. The breakfast is continental, but Owners Will and Carry are awesome. We stay there every time we go. They are close enough to downtown yet away from the hustle and bustle. They only have 2 suites to choose from but they are pet and child friendly. It is right... More
