It can get a bit loud but that’s because the location is perfectly situated in the middle of the historic district.

Great location for St Augustine! Walking distance to all the shops and along the waterfront. There is also a trolley stop right outside the hotel which is great for the hop on hop off tickets you can purchase around town!
Room was clean, with a great modern bathroom with one of the best showers ever! Also, the beds were so comfortable!!
Parking was $26 per night including taxes.
No free breakfast at this hotel which isn’t a problem at all as there is a great breakfast restaurant next door called Harbor View Cafe! You get a discount in there if you mention to them you are staying at the Best Western.
Overall, a great hotel in an excellent location. Stay here for your visit to St Augustine!

Rooms are small but very much updated and very clean and comfortable. Staff is top notch from the front desk, maid service, to the parking lot staff. This is in the heart of the historical town, and close to every thing the St. Augustine has to offer.
