Great place coveniently located
Just a cute little place. The bed, bedding, and pillows were all excellent. Room was good sized with a tv and small fridge. Had a private bathroom. Coffee was great. Free breakfast was great too. Great location about 0.5 miles from the ferry and Duval Street.

Receptionist was very friendly. We had to leave the hotel before breakfast, and the staff gave us our breakfast items when we checked in. The room is very clean, but we wish that they would use cleansers without the strong smell. One blind didn't close well,so we felt that we didn't have much privacy. Area is quiet, but convenience enough. Hotel only has two parking space, but there are plenty free street parking.

First time in Key West
Stay was awesome! Staff were very friendly and accomodating. Took extra time with us to explain key west and benefits of the property. Reasonably priced and fresh breakfast. Overall quiet besides the airplanes coming in. Bed was a little uncomfortable the second night. We would MOST DEFINITELY return! Thank you and ❤️ from Minnesota!
