The Inn was pretty cool. Very old and has huge potential. It is a small inn. I think 17 rooms. Problems: Noise from adjacent outdoor bar. That wasn't terrible, but they went past the time they were supposed to stop. Drunks had access to roam around the Inn, outside and in. They would come from the outside barand roam all over the property. They had no business in the hallways where the rooms were, and should not have had access. The bar inside the Inn was noisy, and was small. It was open for anyone to come in from the street. Again, this is listed as a Bed n Breakfast, but it's not any more than a few rooms that literally can be accessed by EVERYONE. This calls the realistic safety into question. I will say, the staff that I met was extremely helpful and courteous. I would stay here again if the access was limited to actual guests and not every drunken individual from on the street.

Unique stay right downtown. Very tall, Very squeaky bed. Louvered closet door to the toilet right next to the bed, so being comfortable with your roomie is important. Cute breakfast set up.

Very nice room. Bed was high so a little diffcult to get in at times. Wish there was two chairs in room instead of one. If you don't have privacy issues, as not a real door on bathroom, was very nice, huge tub. AC was very good. Make sure you can do stairs as no elevator. Very relaxing vacation.

A nice place with a very friendly and helpful staff. Two small areas of concern: first, the bars of soap were WAY too small. Second, we saw an almost-dead fairly large cockroach on the floor outside our room one morning, and on another occasion we saw two smaller ones (also almost dead) in our bathroom. It's Florida, so that's not really a surprise, but still... Front porch is great for sitting, reading, watching the area come alive early in the morning, etc. Breakfast was good, especially the sausage. The location couldn't be better...just a half block from the center of town.

Great location. Room itself was fine but a little dated. Only real issue was proximity to bar next door with live music until 11 on weekends. If you want to go to bed early, good luck.

Love this place, but its not in the greatest condition. Upstairs decking was extremely slick after it rained, which lasted well into the following day. Had some large ants the first night and termites the second night (just so management knows). Otherwise, its a great place to stay in the heart of town, with clean rooms and a welcoming atmosphere. Mermaid bar was great - small and friendly.

Overall a great area, the green turtle bar next door had great music, the included breakfast was all self service of bagels and quiche, they did not supply enough towels for 2 days and when we asked for more towels the innkeeper said ok but I had to call later in the evening to get them.

Excellent and beautiful inn
This is a absolutely beautiful property and our small room was charming, very clean The only downside is the very loud late night open air bar next door and the noise level in our room well past midnight made it feel like we were literally in the bar ourselves.

Quaint, Rustic and Romantic
Quaint B&B with delicious breakfast quiche. We listened to the live music each night from the 1st and 2nd floor porches. The ice machine on the 1st floor was great as we made some cocktails and relaxed outside. We had a jacuzzi room which was a throwback to the early 90s but this is a Victorian home from 1857 so we didn’t expect 5* luxury upgrades this trip. The bed was also comfortable. We saw a rehearsal dinner at the on-site restaurant which was beautiful. The grounds were gorgeous and in the evenings felt like we were in a mystical garden of sorts. Coffee and bottled water provided throughout the day/evening was convenient. Prime location in the heart of downtown about 2 miles from Fort Clinch State Park. Finding street parking or parking in their back lot wasn’t a problem. Overall we found this B&B to be charming and had a great time.
