Casablanca Inn, St. Augustine, FL

I just want to say if you are staying over in the St. Augustine area you have to stay at the Casablanca Inn! It is such a pretty old historic home with such character you will just LOVE it!
My husband and I spent our 29th Anniversary there and really enjoyed our time there. We were in room #5 as you can see from their website it is their smallest & cheapest room. We checked in on a Sunday during their non-peak season to get the cheapest rate for the room - I don't call this blog nifty & thrifty for nothing. The room was decorated so cute! Yes, it was small but really how much room do you need : ) It had bathrobes, 2 hairdryers, tons of extra pillows, a few extra blankets, just everything you would need for a pleasant stay. Room #5 had an awesome flat screen tv hung on the wall which we enjoyed (we don't have tv at home so this was special for us). The only draw backs we had were: 1) Right outside to the entrance to our room which was on the outside of the building they had gravel which was pretty loud when other guests were walking around in this area at all times of the night. 2) When you are trying to check in it is very hard to find a parking spot to drop off your things, once you are checked in they have a designated parking spot  not too far from the Inn for all their guests which is great if you want to take your car and go sightseeing. Also if you are into the paranormal there are stories that this home is haunted, You can read all about the "Lady with the Lantern". We weren't lucky enough to see her the night we spent there but it was fun to keep an eye out for her.... All in all we had a GREAT time and can't wait to go back!!

Until Next Time - God Bless!!
