So so but amazing location
Room had no self controlled heat or A/C available. You could hear every word spoken in the room next door, so it’s not quite but they do warn you of this at check in!

A fun eclectic “gay” hotel.
Mari Jean and its staff are a fun and accommodating hotel and crew. It is a fun specialty hotel (gay centric) but just as welcoming to M/F couples. It is always clean and well maintained for an older building. We love the eclectic decor, (very gay centric). Some rooms can be loud because of the club downstairs, so if that is a concern always ask for a quiet room.

5th Check-in and Still The Best
This is stay # 5 or 6, can't remember for sure how many times. However, the level of service has always impressed me. This is not The Ritz Carlton with all the modern nuances as this is a retro-fit hotel. The curator as we have come to find out is known for transitioning older hotels into gems. A diverse background in corporate restaurant decor and a local interior design with a special flair for turning deplorable establishments into beautiful works of art. Thank you to the owner and his staff for revitalizing an old building and not tearing it down to build another eyesore of the future. Can't wait for the next visit.

Mari Jean on my birthday
We went here for my birthday and the day was pretty nice the place was nice enough that we stayed an extra day. It is downtown St Pete which makes it very convenient for everything there was never really anybody there that we saw I don't know why the desk was always empty but it was not like people were sitting around I don't even know if anybody else is in the hotel room. The staff was very kind that I did run into and it was very nice and clean. The room was awesome decorated and lights and green and black and it was just amazing the shower was less desirable but can't have everything. Breakfast was something that was not really special or spectacular either but it was nice to have a cup of coffee and the Danish before we started our day.

The staff was excellent, but if you're a light sleeper, you can hear the music from the club until 3 AM.

We had an highly positive experience with the hotel, staff, and parking.
Unfortunately on our second night of the stay - there was an incident with Club security in one of the attached club venues, clearing chairs for the "show".
While I would recommend the hotel - I would not recommend the Clubs - and believe the Security Staff needs to be re-trained in Customer Service - realizing without clients / customers - No clib - No Job!

The quality of the resort is Disney standard, which is my standard for where I like to stay and they exceeded the standard staff to the cleanliness to the breakfast bar and evening Cocktail hour I would recommend anyone stay there if they want exemplary service, beautiful rooms, and treated with the highest level of customer service
