We originally booked reservations at St. Augustine Beach Front Inn but then the next day saw the reviews and decided to cancel them and quickly booked a stay at the Econo Lodge. The reviews weren't the best here but, the price was good and there was no reviews saying their was rats crawling over them when sleeping like at the Beach Front Inn.
The employees in the front office were very nice. We arrived early and they politely told us to come back at 3 pm which was the check in time. They went ahead and checked to see if our reservations were made and were very nice about everything. We came back at 3 and she gave us extra towels since the room only had towels for 2 people.
Previous reviews on this site said that the rooms were filthy, I thought our room was very clean. The maids were very nice as well, we left to go to breakfast and right when we were walking out of the door they asked us nicely if we needed room service to clean our room and give us extra towels, we said yes and came back about 30 minutes later and the room was very clean and they had replaced us with fresh towels.
Our room was on the opposite side of the road so I never once heard cars or trucks during the night. It was very peaceful and had a great night sleep both nights I was there. The continental breakfast was very basic but was the same as any other hotel I have been too but, the room was kind of small but there was barely anyone in there when I went in so it wasn't a big deal. Another thing was the pool was very clean and was opened until 10 PM. We were in room 132 which is right afront of the pool but on the opposite side of the road like stated above, I thought it was a pretty good spot for a room.
