The room was OK - I was given the "handicapped accessible" room - so there was no vanity area for bathroom items; shower chair in the shower, etc. and the carpets were gross! After walking around the room packing my suitcases, I noticed that my feet were completely covered in BLACK! Not sure if it was mold in the carpets... More

1. Opened the door and a roach crawled across the floor. 2. The website picture are deceiving, our room looked NOTHING like that. 3. The noise level was ridiculous at all time, even late at night. Our only saving grace was the loud AC but once it cut off we could still here the noise. 4. There was NO parking.... More

Wonderfully restored hotel, with a fantastic pool and beach bar. Great place to stay with friends or spend an afternoon. The bed was fantastic too. The bathrooms could be renovated keeping with the period feel- sink was slow to drain, no exhaust fan. Also, the bathrooms near the beach bar needed to be cleaned. More

This hotel is very cute and has a great atmosphere, but I really don't think it is worth the price. My husband and I went down for the weekend with 2 other couples. Matthew who checked us in was very nice and welcoming. The hotel actually upgraded our room to a pool front because we were recently married. I thought... More

We love St. Pete Beach and visit quite often. We tried the PCI for something different and the price was right. Pool - nice, Beach access - nice, Snack Bar - nice. This is where it all ends. Upgrades and modern aesthetic end at the guest room door. "Horrible, filthy, smelly, antiquated...", begin to describe our upgraded guest room. We... More

First off, don't waste your money. We are locals of St. Pete (born and raised) and can tell you this place has the worst service of any place we've been. To this day, we still tell the story of how we waited 2.5 hours at the BBQ restaurant (that is attached to and owned by Postcard Inn) only to be... More

As a local resident I had been meaning to "staycation" at this hotel because I liked it's retro surfer style. I visited the property for a volleyball match awhile ago, checked out the grounds and lobby and thought it was super cute. However, I found that inside the rooms is not nearly as nice as the lobby and grounds. The... More

Booked here as the Sirata was full so thought I'd book somewhere more lively, as that is what the Sirata lacks for me. However there is a limit as to what is lively and what is out of control! Checked in smoothly, no offer of help with bags or shown to room which rattled me somewhat after a long journey.... More
