Summary: This is a lovely inn but upon check in the staff was a bit off putting so it set the stay for evening.

Summary: The Gibson Inn is one of my favorite hotels in all of Florida, if not the Southeastern USA. You just can’t beat old world charm and they just keep making the place better and better with improvements that don’t take away from its historical beauty. We were there this past summer, and upon coming back this week, they’ve put in a swimming pool! Parking has been improved and they’re adding a second restaurant. As usual, you get a great night’s sleep because of how quiet and peaceful Apalachicola is, plus the beds are very comfortable. Bathrooms are beautiful as usual. I wish I had gotten in earlier so I could’ve had dinner and a drink at the bar, it’s always good. The only thing I do miss is that they switched over to plastic electric room cards like every other hotel…I miss the old keys! Thanks again for another great stay. Be back soon.

Summary: The staff was courteous and helpful. The desk clerk assigned me with my luggage. The room was impressive. It took a little while for the internet to connect but it eventually kicked in. It was a pleasure stay. I plan to return.

Summary: The inn itself is very nice,the rooms were nice although there was a cockroach in our bathroom, we did a cousin’s birthday trip we canceled our reservation at a different inn because the Gibson has a bar and restaurant and a billiard room, we checked in and we were told by the bartender that on Saturday the following day we would not be allowed in the bar and we would not be able to eat in the restaurant due to a wedding they were hosting, in my opinion this is about as bad as it gets when it comes to bad hospitality, we also couldn’t use the restaurant on Sunday morning before we left again the wedding, I brought my issue to the front desk and all they could do is take $50 off our bill and say so sorry, we spent more than $50 on 1 round of drinks in their bar, this place needs to look up the definition of hospitality, stay clear of this place there are several Airbnb places, I would have booked one if I knew we were going to be kicked to the curb when it came to using their accommodation this id a horrible place

Summary: The room was clean, but much smaller than it appears in the pictures. The bathroom was very small with the vanity in a small space uncomfortable to clean your face, shave or apply makeup.
