I think a stay here is a good value. But you should understand what "value" means. The location is great, within walking distance of most of downtown St. Pete, restaurants, bars, shops, museums, etc. That, plus a continental breakfast, free off-street parking and a free drink for happy hour along with a relatively low price, drive the value. Just be aware as (at least our) room was small and dated with badly beat up baseboards, worn furniture, a camper-sized TV, and in need of a coat of paint. The West side is next to a busy street that you will hear. The window unit AC will cycle on/off continuously and this is a spring bed mattress. Just depends on your priorities.
