This is a great property within walking distance to everything. The only thing that kept me from 5 stars was the need for paint and an update to the bathrooms.

Relaxing Trip
I’ll never stay anywhere else when I’m Apalachicola. For a couple with different sleep habits it’s worth the little extra money to have a bedroom separate from the living area, a kitchen and such a relaxing screened patio on the river to relax at while waiting for them to wake up!

Stayed for a week on business. The hotel was comfortable, great location, and had all the things we needed for a long stay - stocked kitchen, laundry, etc. Staff were friendly and the view from the balcony was so lovely to wake up to each morning.

Wonderful stay!
Very friendly staff. Room was just what we needed and spotlessly clean. Room to spread out, washer and dryer in the room, very comfortable bed, and nice little screened in deck to have coffee! Centrally located.

The screened deck overlooking the water is amazingly peaceful.
The kitchen could be a little more stocked for those who want to cook, but there are so many choices to eat out in Apalachicola! A great place to stay!

Perfect Couples Retreat
Perfect room for a couple. Peaceful and quiet, with a lovely view of the river. Great for walking to and from the local restaurants.
Loved the area, love the room and where it was and just having what we needed. However, ants everywhere, which is something that can be remedied. We will of course go back. It’s perfect for walking and relaxing in the area. Loved it .
