location
First room the door did not open. Asked help and they opened with a strong push. After in with all luggage's etc, the door did not close. Again asked help and received another room.
Very clean and the staff was super attentive
The staff was great.
Jacuzzi was very dated and did not feel clean. The pool and pool area needed a through update.
Staff very nice. Walking distance to every thing
Right next to train tracks. Trains all night sound like they where in your room.
Great location and hotel rooms were clean and very well taken care of ..I will stay there again. 😊pool was fabulous
No Continental breakfast
THE AC SYSTEM VERY NOISY DURING NIGHT .
The staff was extremely friendly and helpful! The restaurant was good! The room was clean and comfortable.
The Hotel is out dated and one side is facing the highway and the other side is facing the Railroad tracks! It was okay for the money but I will not stay again.
Convenient to main road
It wasn’t as clean as it was made to look
Rien. Nous sommes restées 1 h dans la chambre et avons décidé de partir pour changer d'hôtel. Personne à l'accueil très agréable.
Chambre non isolée d'un côté la route de l'autre la voie de chemin de fer. Chambre humide et donc très bruyante. On m'a proposé des bouchons d'oreille pour le bruit... Finalement loin du centre ville puisque la route devant est impossible à traverser. Parties communes vieillotte et la piscine ne donnait pas envie. J'ai demandé un geste commercial. On m'a juste remboursé la seconde nuit. Il n'est normalement de louer ce type de chambre.
Everything 😊
Nothing everything was great keep up the good work
The hotel was close to everything. And the rooms were nice
The pool was dirty.
Location was great. Staff was fantastic. The pool area was nice. However the Jacuzzi didn't get very hot it was bath bath for small children. And the jets didn't work. Great lobby and staff was super sweet.
Only problems the bathroom door needs to be fixed. I had to lift it up to close. And no bathroom vent. Also the jacuzzi jets don't work and the water is not very hot. It was bath water warm.
Staff service and restaurant inside hotel amazing
The staff was always eager to provide extra service and responded quickly to resolve any issues. One of the desk managers (Cindy) was especially helpful in handling every minor problem we had quickly, effectively, and with delightful good humor. We'll certainly use this hotel again.
There were some problems with the television broadcast vs VCR movie usage. A small instruction plaque, which explained how to switch between Html-2 and 3 would have been helpful. One system enables the TV stations to work, while the other enables the VCR to play movie disks. Room cleaning and laundry replacement could have been better.
We chose this hotel because of good reviews and it's proximity to the historic downtown area of St Augustine. We walked downtown and back everyday we were there. St Augustine is familiar to us, so we knew our way around. We had a first-floor room, with pool view. Room was spacious and clean. McDonals across the street 😊 Also, a Denny's Restaurant. We enjoyed the area out back of the hotel, overlooking the river. There's train tracks also, and we.enjoyed watching that train go by.
No dislikes.
Enjoyed the pool, clean room, and excellent customer service.
The hotel is by a rail track and the trains passing can get really loud. As a light sleeper I woke up to it a few times.
Location was located near all tourist spots. Staff was excellent - friendly, professional. Room was comfortable and very spacious.
Close to Historic District
No complimentary breakfast
The room was a great size, plenty of space and it was very clean. The hotel was close to downtown, which is where we spent most of our time. The staff at the front desk were very nice as well.
The only "negative" thing I would say is that the hotel is very close to railroad tracks, but we knew that when we booked the hotel, and it wasn't really a problem, as we were in a room facing the road. Although, that was a little noisy........
The property was very clean and staff was very accommodating. It was next to the Welcome Center which provided a shuttle to downtown welcome trolley.
The phone in the room was not connected. The paint was peeling in the bathroom. Staying on the road side of the hotel was very noisy. The hotel badly needed a facelift.
Price, staff was friendly and it was cool and comfy.
The coffee maker/coffee was pretty awful. Made a mess making it and it tasted horrible.
Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Room was dated and Railroad directly behind our room.
Being on the ground floor right at the pool was great
Hot tub wouldn’t stay on or hot properly
Very welcoming nice staff
Cleaning personal works to late I'm ready to relax at 6:00 pm and staff are still cleaning rooms after that
It was clean, spacious, and quiet.
Everything is on the other side of the road.
The staff was really friendly, they were definitely a highlight. The facilities were good and the room was nice.
The location was a bit farther than I thought, but I was walking to town and this is my fault for not paying attention. The water was also weird, but that is a St. Augustine issue.
La habitación estaba limpia, y comoda la cama.
Yo no hablo inglés, pero la recepcionista tampoco manejaba el español, pero lamentablemente no tienen buena acogida.
Very friendly staff
It was a motel.
It was very pretty and clean
Fijn warm zwembad, mooie kamers, fijne bedden
De airco maakte veel herrie en de herrie van de straat was goed te horen
The rooms were large and updated. The staff was courteous and helpful..
There are no elevators which can be a problem for those who have issues climbing up stairs with heavy suitcases. Thie pool is in poor shape and needs to be redone. The chairs and loungers are worn and need to be replaced. The hotel is good for one or two nights but not for an extended vacation.
I love the friendly and welcoming nature and atmosphere. Water view and downtown. Great food.
I don’t have anything negative to say. I have enjoyed every stay and staff has always been accommodating and friendly.
The Hotel was very clean! Staff was extremely friendly! Location was awesome! Very close to everything, no more than a 5 to 8 minute drive to most locations! I will stay here EVERY time I go to St. Augustine!
I really can't think of anything that I would change
The location, the price, the pillows and the pool.
Not enough towels
the Location. the View. Friendly staff clean Room. Comfortable bed.
the Train can be alittle loud. but you can't help That. !!!!
Staff
Fan in bathroom didn't work ..
Great location, comfortable place and super nice staff
Located right beside train tracks
The rooms were clean and the beds comfortable.
There was a lot of water in the hallways and our door was hard to open
Location and Ms. Cindy at the front desk. Restaurant food.
Rooms smell like mildew and bathroom door was dusty.
Property is located with walking distance to downtown, attractions and restaurants. The customer service is Top Tier Mrs Cindy and Peter were always making sure that your stay was excellent.
The Ponce Hotel was very clean and conveniently located you can walk to just about everything. It offers excellent value for the price. The restaurant was very good, and the staff was friendly and welcoming.
Roupas de cama e o apartamento tudo limpo 👏
Tudo bom
Great value and great facilities
Todo estaba muy limpio y equipado con lo que se necesita
Todo me gustó
The property must of been a motel at one time , it’s clean but outdated from furniture to colors ,
We got a corner 1st floor unit and every one walked and talked , smoked , and walked the dogs very loudly!!
El ambiente, la tranquilidad
Que no tiene desayuno incluido y el valor podía incluirlo
Everything
The Ponce Hotel in St. Augustine actually managed to surprise me. As usual, my Olympic-level penny-pinching caused me to lower my standards so far that this place felt like the Ritz. The fresh hot coffee was delicious, the towels were folded like tiny Buckingham Palace sculptures, and I thought we’d finally broken our streak of weird hotel experiences… Then we went to the pool. A very enthusiastic group of new friends seemed a little too eager to recruit us into the hot tub. We politely declined the social experiment, wandered over to the pool instead, and ended up having a peaceful twilight swim under the stars. The hotel was spotless, the staff was wonderful, and despite our brief cameo in someone else’s pool party, we’d definitely stay here again.
Well maintained and clean
I liked everything
Lindsey is the most hospitable person. She is absolutely amazing and was very accommodating when we checked in early. My daughter and I have been doing staycations at this hotel because it’s our absolute favorite. Everything is so perfect and we have made life long friendships here. Thank you!
Very convenient to everything including trolley.
Nothing really negative
This property is amazing, is not just were is located, (6 minutes from San Marcos Castle.)Since you get in all the staff are welcome you and have you the best experience that you could have. They have a small restaurants inside, small but with a great service and food!! I enjoy so much with my friends that definitely will come back!

UNA CAFETERÍA CON MEJOR DIVERSIDAD DE MENÚ Y PRECIOS UN 10% MENOR.
Peaceful
No elevator
Room had everything you required, clean and staff helpful.
Located on a very busy dual carriageway and on the wrong side as you have to cross road if you like to walk.
It was easy to get to. Pool area was nice. Loved having fridge and microwave.
Noise at night from other rooms. The bed seemed to lean to one side. One small trash can provided.
The staff was amazing Cindy was super attentive and all the personnel at the front desk .
The property is in need of some upgrades it’s a little tired , has the feeling of a motel but for a lot more of the cost . The bed was comfy , overall it was a nice stay it was clean and the staff is very attentive.
Pool and location
Water pressure and no elevator
Not much, railroad track behind hotel, loud trains run through out the night. Room looked clean but smelled like mildew.
Railroad train noise. Shower head rusted and dirty.

Nothing
Joel was the best!
It’s good location and clean
The property was nice. The staff
The property has a serious moisture issue., Mold and mildew. We were advised to keep the air conditioning between 66 and 70 in order for the room to remain dry. We woke up one day with the floor, soaking wet because apparently the dehumidifier was filled and needed empty. We moved from one room to the other because the first room had an odor of mildew in it that my sister recognized immediately.
Very clean, food was excellent and we loved the pool.
My sister and I stayed at the Ponce Saint Augustine this past week. The staff is very nice. The location is a bit away from the historic district. But I knew that before even booking. My major concern with the hotel is their inability to control the humidity in the rooms. We woke up one morning and the floor was soaking wet. I called the front desk and stated my concern and I was told to put the air-conditioning between 66 and 70°F in order to control the humidity in the room. That can make for some very uncomfortable sleeping. I noticed one morning that there was a gap between the door frame and the floor. Which was allowing the humidity from outside to come in. We changed rooms initially when we got there because the first one we were going to stay in, had a rather musty smell to it. The second room was better. But still had problems controlling the humidity in the room.
Excellant staff always nice and helpful. Pool area nice and clean Loved the fresh coffee and tables off the lobby. The room had all the things needed shampoo all bath items hair dryer
The floor in the room was tile thats fine but they need a good cleaning some of the outside walkways need to be pressured cleaned
Amazing staff, beautiful view and pool, delicious food ❤️
Room smelled like a crime scene clean up...bleach....phone did not work.
My money back
The location was great. The pool area was nice and inviting. The room was comfortable, and the restaurant was very good.
Good staff

Lekker gezwommen!
Ligt langs drukke weg. Dat hoor je goed.
Convenient location. Cindy and the rest of the staff was friendly. Everything was clean and they were responsive when we needed anything.
It was close to the historic district and trolley. Room was clean and the whole was overall good.
They should have more security. Some guest smoke around not respecting the smoking areas. Staff is gone at midnight so the area is completely alone.
La habitacion y,el restaurant , ubicac ion
no hay elevador, no sirven desallunoi
The location is where I want to be.
There were a few issues with bugs getting under the door leading into the room. We place a towel in front of the door to assist .
Clean rooms, comfortable beds, hot tub.
Internet search
There wasn’t anything that I didn’t like. It was a weekend trip for my wife and me. We had our dog also, so it was a great pet-friendly hotel. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely recommend and stay there in the future. Very satisfied.
Very clean, friendly staff, 10-minute walk to the center or the first trolley stop.
A bit noisy AC
I like the location, bed was comfortable.
The room was falling apart. Like the door for the toilet/shower its literally flapping from the bottom up from water damage. Where the refrigerator is in a cabinet the fridge is like falling in a water damaged base. So trying to use it was a pain it rocked back and forth when trying to open it. Just disappointed I've been coming here for years now. The price goes up and up but the quality of the place goes down and down.
The room was spacious.
The staff was very friendly and the reception area had a beautiful boutique feel. The rooms were very clean and the pool looked beautiful although we did not use it. We would definitely stay here again.!
Housekeeping everyday, was pleasantly surprised. Always checking to see if we’re comfortable and if we need anything
I can’t complain, it may not be upscale and beautiful like Marriott but they treat you very well and I’m sure that’s why they will get retuning customers
