We enjoyed our stay at Penny Farthing. It was a great location convenient to restaurants and shopping. Our room was small, but very cozy and had everything that we needed. We would definitely stay here again if in St. Augustine.

Management was not reasonable about cancelation. They refused to accept a cancelation fee though they had months of lead time. Be careful

Wonderful Place
We had a great experience. Very cute, quiet and quaint. Easy walk to everything in the historic district and close to the beach. Annie was a wonderful host! If you don’t want the “busy” of a traditional hotel, here’s your place.

The property is very well located for those wishing to walk to all of St. Augustine’s historic highlights. The staff was very nice, the room very good, but the overall condition of the property was a bit tired.

Ideal location, Nice inn
The inn is beautiful though it needs alittle attention.The rain gutters are growing trees, the outside and porch need to be powerwashed, replace the deck chairs as almost all of them had uneven legs and breaks and the tableclothes were never changed and were quite soiled. the room itself was clean an comfortable but needs a deep clean once a month or so. very dusty on hardwood floor in corners and under bed. The service provided by annie was spectacular. she was very accomodating to all of our needs. The breakfast was very good but they only offer three different meals on a rotation. The owner is very nice but seems a bit scared. it just needs a little attention to details. the book in the room had been full for some time so i purchased a new book and left it there. perfect location, very quiet. Very much enjoyed our stay

Housekeeper
Ann the housekeeper was wonderful, she made us great breakfasts each morning.The overall outside could do with a coat of paint. We never met the owner which would have been a nice idea.

Booked this Victorian B & B as it looked tradition the city and decent value I liked it enough, my wife not so much We knew it was an old house but the bedroom Ed seemed a little cluttered and musty in parts. However, it was comfortable enough Decent breakfast each morning and free parking were a bonus
