As a surprise my fiance took me to Jacksonville for my birthday. We arrived very late and had to check-in at the outside window which was a bit awkward. The clerk was odd, but friendly and soft spoken. We got to our room and it was clean and on the third level. I enjoyed the location of the room very much. The bed was unbelievably comfortable. I want to come back to Jacksonville and stay in the same room just to sleep in that bed. I would definitely stay here again!

The staff was very fine , & with the exception of the toilet ( you could barely wipe one's self without getting you hand wet) everything was to notch.

Never again will we stay at this HoJo, and it is unfortunate because the hotel is indeed very convient to Downtown (was a few minute trip), the hotel was clean and the staff is very friendly. However the owner is aweful and made what could have been a great travel experience one in which I find myself writing this review. Normally, when there is an issue, it is the owner who makes everything right. Oddly, the owner had made an error in assigning our room in the hotel, and it was the staff who had to tactfully calm her (the owner) down, after she tried to blame us for her error. We fully disclosed the members of our party not only during the booking process (we had this in writing-and the front desk confirmed this), but also disclosed everything at check in. After the owner, who basically chased us down and after questioning us repeatedly and telling us that we were not being truthful, was proven to be in the wrong, refused to appologize for her error, and even decided to again take another jab at us about it when we saw her the next day. Unfortunate indeed, as she has wonderful staff and actually a very nice hotel, but this was un-called for in our opinion, and unacceptable for future stays in the Jacksonville area, of which we travel to quite frequently.

I stayed at this property in early September. It has a mediterranean hacienda feel. The pool is located in the courtyard with the rooms surrounding it on three sides. The set up is such that one can still lie at the pool and get a nice tan.

On the plus side the Hotel is very clean and the staff was very courteous. Breakfast was above average, but the food was fresh. Not that stale stuff you sometimes get. The ROOMS WERE VERY CLEAN !!

The wi-fi worked very well and was free.

The Hotel is close to the St. John's town center. Dave & Buster's is less than a mile away. Close to I-95 easy access to downtown and beaches.

I am a great fan !!
