Hugely overrated hotel
I have no idea how this hotel has such good reviews, the rooms are tiny, the air conditioning is like a jet taking off, the noise from the corridor is worse than any other hotel we have ever stopped at, due to the doors slamming and the hotel allowing large groups of guests who seem to be able to run around the hotel carefree.

Historical Gem
This is one of our two favorite hotels in St. Pete. The staff is friendly, professional and always remembers us. It's an older hotel, but it is a gem.

Great time
Nice older building right in downtown with plenty amenities between them and their other property right next door. Easy walk to our concert venue plus free parking at the hotel is a huge plus.

Overall our stay was pleasant. The parking situation however was frustrating. One night we had to park across the street in a business lot. Next night we drove around the block a few times and doubled park in the lot until someone pulled out.

A nice hotel for a one night stay. Cozy room, walking distance to many places. Only complaint there’s no fridge or microwave. Otherwise for a place to sleep it’s nice

Cool older place downtown
Chic place downtown that is really part of a multi-building complex taking up most of the block, which is good for the parking. The lobby was decorated very nicely and the staff was very nice. It's a smaller place but as it's a "sister" to the next door larger Hollander, can get anything needed. The rooms and hallways are dated as it's an older building. They've done a good job with the decor, but still feels like an older place. In all if good with an older feel, this is a real convenient place to stay.

Simple but beyond
We came for a concert at Jannus so we wanted something within walking distance. The staff was lovely right from the start. Bottles of water and citrus infused waiting there for the taking. The room is the necessities, but not super spacious. They did what they could with the space but it was perfect for what we needed. It is a dual property with the Hollander so if Avalon doesn’t have it, Hollander does. The best was really comfy! There was coffee ready at check out in the morning. There’s a shuttle to take you where you need too!
Only complaints: there is parking and we didn’t have an issue but if you were to come back late, spots may not be in plenty. The room smelled highly of cleaner so it was a little headache inducing but the room was cleaned so we won’t complain, we just opened the window.
