Southern Oaks Inn

The location was great! It is not right in the heart of St Augustine, but it is about 1 1/2 miles from the historic downtown and they offer shuttle service to take you where ever you need and will pick you up when you call them. It is a very easy drive if you prefer. Parking is tough and limited plus a bit pricey but is still cheaper than what you are charged by the hotels in the heart of the historic district. Nice outdoor pool area. It is also pet friendly.

The rooms are older but very clean. They could use a remodel or updating at some point. A few employees were not as friendly as I would have expected but there are usually reasons why.

I've stayed at Southern Oaks twice now and really like the place. I enjoy the location in the neighborhood setting. The staff have always been friendly. The breakfast is good and appreciated. The shuttle is convenient.

A little cool in my room.

The water pressure in the shower was best I've ever experienced in a hotel. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The free breakfast was better than most.

The space between the end of the bed and the dresser was a little tight for two people to pass through. The delays for the shuttle to take us downtown was aggravating and at least twice by the time it got there the people waiting filled it up.
