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."

Joe's property was the perfect spot for our weekend stay for a wedding in downtown St. Augustine. The studio is small, but it has everything you need for a comfortable stay, including beach chairs and a cooler. The studio was very clean, which is always the most important to me. The location can't be beat! Walk out the door and you are right in the heart of downtown.

This property is in an excellent location to walk around the historic district. We parked our car and didn’t need it during our stay. We got the trolley pass for two days. It includes a bus to the beach. The host was extremely responsive. The room is as described. Small, but sufficient for our needs. We would rent it again.

Great location and price point

My husband and I were looking to bring our 8-year old daughter to visit St. Augustine for the first time. This rental comfortably fits two but we were comfortable with our daughter in tow. This place is so perfectly located within walking distance to everything. The host was very nice and informative. We look forward do coming again!
