RESORT.....doesn't always mean NICE.....

Hunter and I decided to take advantage of the nice long weekend and visit St. Augustine - The Nation's Oldest City! I was hoping to go somewhere else, but that is another story.....

So when I was booking our hotel online - I THOUGHT I had found a great place! I mean with words like BEACH and RESORT in the name, you would think it would be a nice spot to spend a long weekend. Welllllllll, it wasn't.

The first thing we noticed was possible blood on the door.....












As you can see, the security system on the door was AMAZING


Yes, we felt very safe.









108....not so great













Everything that was "silver", was rusted












Hmmmmmm, what is that?


Broken.....AND held together with masking tape.


Not only is the toilet GROSS, you had to GET INTO the shower, to close the bathroom door







Interesting patch job












You could see outside....through the side of the door


And the pool was 1/2 empty.....loooong drop for a kid on the slide.


The good news is - after a full day of sight-seeing, we got there late, so all we did was sleep, wake up and check out. Oh, did I mention there was no hot water either? DELIGHTFUL!

The city of St. Augustine was soooooooo cool! Hunter and I had a great time and will definitely be back again! However, we will stay in the historic district the WHOLE time and not get fooled by the sweet words of BEACH and RESORT ever again! Those GREAT photos will be up in a day or two!
