Review of Governors Inn
4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 31 Jul 2019
Great little quaint hotel. Walking distance to all of downtown Tallahassee. It has great amenities however parking is inconvenient unless you valet. Room was small but clean, and they provided Happy Hour and breakfast. Will definitely stay there again and would recommend it to friends and family.
Date of stay: July 2019
Room Tip: Ask for a room in the back to avoid extra noise from the street and lobby.
Trip type: Travelled as a couple

The first time we stayed at Governors Inn for orientation was ok and we liked the proximity to campus and restaurants.

This time was terrible. Our room was so contaminated with mold that my skin was burning. I saw later that another visitor posted about mold in the exact same room 4 months ago on Yelp and obviously management ignored it.

While I was at the front desk at 10 PM trying to get moved to a non mold room, another guest was there to report their A/C was out.
Next guest comes to front desk to get clean sheets. Yes, she checked into a room with dirty sheets.

Management offered to refund our valet cost and room cost at 10 PM on the Friday night of Summer move in weekend and suggested we move to a different hotel. WOW

Complete sham of a hotel. Management totally not responsive. Illegally took credit card numbers without securing rooms. Did not secure credit card information. Management personnel change or quit day to day. Rooms not nice. Renter BEWARE. Scammers

The location is a little tricky with one way streets and valet parking is your only option. It's walking distance to bars, restaurants and shops. The room was clean but the bed was really high off the ground since it was an old fashion 4 post bed. The walls are thin as I heard every guest in the hallway and the people in the room next to me. Water pressure in the shower was a little weak but you can manage. The breakfast was good and the coffee was surprisingly very good. The only other issue is they park your car in a garage that is four blocks away so when you want your car, call ahead otherwise you'll be waiting 10 minutes for your car to arrive.

We have several rooms located on the second and third floor for guests seeking quieter surroundings. Glad you enjoyed our improved breakfast. If you know you need you car, we can leave it in front in one of the six spaces in front of the Inn.

Don’t stay. It’s not quaint. Most rooms have basically no windows or a prison cell window. Worst breakfast in America, no cereal, vvv poor coffee, nothing warm to eat and the cold fare was woefully inadequate.
And there’s no elevator. It’s a v bad conversion of an old building so it’s all stairs and weird spaces not quaint or traditional. Just don’t stay. It’s a great location, that’s it.

Sorry you did not enjoy your stay. We have eight room types, all have windows. However, one type has windows that show the internal hallways. We have added new items for breakfast. We have added new beds and continue to improve. We try our best to make sure each guest enjoys there stay.

Lovely old Inn with combination of historic charm and modern amenities. Staff members were very pleasant and helpful. Valet parking is the best option. Inn is located close to capitol, courts, restaurants and FSU.
