Charming Inn
Loved the charm of this historic Inn. It is in walking distance of everything in Apalachicola and a short drive to St. George Beach. The Inn is very clean and our bed was super comfy. The room was a tad smaller than what we expected but it did not bother us.

Make sure you can do stairs. There are no elevator
We were not anticipating having to go up a flight of stairs, let alone 2 flights of stairs. However, the young lady at the desk accommodated us on the 2nd floor but even that was too much for stairs for us to handle at this time. There were 16 stairs which is not the average flight of stairs. However, we stayed one night and asked to be relieved of the following night. It was very disappointing, as we had wanted to stay 2 nights, but just couldn't do the stairs. The girl tried to find us a room on the 1st floor but there were none available. Had I known that this was going to be an issue? I would not have booked here.

We love staying at the Gibson! Such a sweet place! I will note, I called the date of check in to confirm that everything was good to go for checking in that eveing and the woman who answered the phone was very rude. I’ve never experienced that with the Gibson, so it caught me off gaurd. That was the only negatice experience though, other than that it wad amazing as always!

An exceptional dive into the past!
What an exceptional escape from the real world! This beautiful property is a whimsical time capsule that has married old world charm and modern amenities. From exploring the local shops and enjoying the fresh seafood to biking the historic neighborhoods on the complementary bicycles, every moment of our two day visit was enjoyed! Highly recommend this Upper Gulf Coast hidden gem!

Most things were pretty good about our stay, it was clean, close to a lot of things to do, and located in what felt like a safe area. My only problems were we got charged 16$ for 2 water bottles that we did not ever see or request in anyway. We also called a day ahead and asked about early check in and were told as long as the room was ready we could check in but we we arrived early we were told the room was ready but it would be a 50$ charge for any check in before 3pm. And the final issue was the rooms were not sound proof and we were located right by the entrance and could hear people come and go and doors open and close all night.

Check in stunk. There was no one at desk for 30 minutes to help. We were so tired. The manager finally came and found someone. He did give us a free drink for the trouble. The property is lovely except for construction. It's a great location. We paid big bucks for 2 rooms, at least have one free bottle of water and more than 1 coffee pod and no stir stick. I had to use my toothbrush for the morning. Saturday night and the bar closing at 10 pm did not make us happy. .
