We loved many, many things about this lovely vintage property: the location - within walking distance to Duvall St, Mallory Square, etc..., the landscaping - palm trees and flowering vines, the pool area, the comfortable bed, the wonderful balcony seating and view. Yes, parking was an issue, but if you don't mind a little walking, $15 will get you a 24 hour spot in a parking lot a couple blocks away. It really wasn't a problem. There is room for loading/unloading directly in front of the hotel.
And yes, breakfast is ample and good, when it was finally ready. BUT the property states breakfast is served 8-10am, and on both mornings we were there, things were not ready at 8:00. Coffee really should be available by 7:00, in my opinion, since there are no coffee makers in the room. That really shouldn't be too hard to do? Also, the lovely kitchen worker seemed overworked, dealing with blown circuit breakers, guests waiting...she either should be paid to start earlier or be provided with a helper. That was really our only issue with Heron House.
But yes, we would definitely stay here again; what the place lacks in this or that, it definitely makes up for in character!
