About this property

Downtown Hideaway, studio accommodations, in the heart of the Historic District

A little bit about the unit itself and our location . . .
The main house is a renovated Victorian circa 1880. This studio is a rear unit with a private entrance, queen bed, central air/heat, WiFi, cable TV and a kitchen with a full-size fridge, microwave and Keurig coffee maker. It is strictly a 2-person venue, there being no room for a rollaway bed. Small babies in a sleeper can be accommodated. The bathroom has a large step-in shower and there's a workstation/makeup table for your convenience. The location is super central two blocks from the bayfront and steps from the Flagler College Campus. Wedding venues are all close by and accessible in minutes. The best restaurants in town are minutes away as well on foot. For trips beyond, bikes are parked outside your door ready to explore wider horizons. Free parking with open entry/exit privileges is a few blocks away at the Municipal Garage, at 1 Cordova. Reasonable paid parking is 61 Cordova, almost adjacent to the Hideaway. It is most convenient for late arrivals. You can drive in and to the rear, where you will be fronting Spanish Street. Leave a note on the dash, something like: "Staying at 78 Spanish. Will pay by 8:30 tomorrow."

Perfect location to historic district near St George and bay front. Free parking provided in city garage but we opted for the convenient pay by the day lot across the street. The seating could be more comfortable. The new back deck was a nice surprise and ideal.

Fantastic location, one block off St George. We had all the amenities we needed. Only drawback was delivery trucks at 6:30 in the morning with their backup alerts! We would definitely stay again, and recommend this place highly.

Great location in historical St Augustine. Bed was comfortable and the property had everything needed for the two nights we were in town. Lovely outdoor shaded deck area that had lights at night. The place was on the smaller size but seemed larger due to very good usage of space. Joe was very responsive and a wonderful host!

Unit has all the necessities, in a compact place. I will book a bit further away from St. George Street next time to avoid late night noise from drunk partiers and a truck that tows cars in a lot next to the place.

Amazing location at a reasonable price. Host was responsive and available. If you want a tiny base for exploring the wonders of the city, this is for you. The parking ramp is a short walk away, where you will have a pass. But from this location, you could probably walk or take transit most anywhere in the Old City.

Parking in front of property ranged from 5 to 25 with no overnight parking past midnight :(Unit was crammed and had no permanent ceiling over bathroom so sounds were heard throughout unit including a dripping faucet. Deck above unit was occupied by revelers past 11pm. Trash in parking lot outside unit. Convenient to historic district with free local bus available at regular intervals. Romance factor is non existent as bathroom opens into a gallt kitchen.

About the host

Hosted by Joe Teisan

Host profile image
My family has lived in St Augustine since 1979. We bought our first Victorian on Grove Avenue and raised our kids there. We have watched the city grow from a quiet, sleepy little beach town to a still small and still friendly little city that has managed to preserve its heritage and multicultural diversity. We have lived in many cities around the world following jobs and dreams and we always manage to return to St Augustine. This is our home and we invite you to partake of our hospitality and the historic charm and natural wonders the city has to offer.

Why they chose this property

What we get in the reviews from people who have stayed here is very simple. Comfortable place to stay, attentive host and right in the middle of everything at a reasonable place--comfortable, convivial, convenient and affordable.

What makes this property unique

Park your car and forget it until you head back home.
