“Brilliant Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 January 2012

For anyone visiting St Augustine, the Old Powder House in a great location to see the sites of the town and make use of the various tourist related services. We were hit with one or two too many rules on arrival and the manager made it very clear that "she" was in charge. I think that was unfortunate and unnecessary. Our room had everything required although it was maybe smaller than the photo on the website made it look. Breakfasts were five star....... no grounds for criticism with the meals. Pity the management weren't just a little bit more relaxed. However, I would go back and that says it all.

“Romantic Getaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 November 2011

My husband and I decided to go on a romantic getaway at the last minute. There were so many B&B options to choose from. I'm grateful that we ended up here. Katie and Kal were great! They were warm, friendly and welcoming. The B&B overall is beautiful. We stayed in the Queen Ann's Lace Room. It was very comfortable, cozy and romantic. Breakfast was delicious. The B&B is centrally located and near all the action. We didn't have to use our car once the entire time we were there which is a major plus since parking is extremely limited. Everything was within walking distance. Overall our experience was amazing and I would return to this B&B again and again.

“Great Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 November 2011

Stayed for our Honeymoon during busy Veteran's Day Weekend (Miranda Room). Beautiful place to stay. Comfortable bed, clean room, wonderful breakfasts. Katie was a great host and wouldn't let us leave without a hug goodbye!! Katie also was able to get us reservations to the best restaurant for our special night out!! Great personal touch.

The location is also perfect. I researched all other B&B's in St. Augustine before we went. Walking around the area, we got to see most all of them in person. The Old Powder House Inn lived up to our expectations, and turned out to be in a great location. Not located on one of the busy pedestrian streets, but only a block or so away from everything. All of the convenience, none of the noise or hassle.

The best part of the B&B experience was meeting the other couples at breakfast. We made some friends that will likely last a lifetime. Had such a good time, we are talking about bringing our whole family back soon.

“Best B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 September 2011

Beautiful, clean, charming, well located. Katie and Kal take excellent care of their guests, from the accomodations to the lovely and delicious homemade gourmet breakfast. Very good value. Try the Floridian restaurant across the street - excellent.
