Continental breakfast and great location. Rooms were dated but clean
Kathryn, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Big room, comfy beds, spacious bathroom area

The room was very spacious, with a bar area, fridge, sink and microwave. The beds were very comfortable, the bathroom area was very spacious. The bathroom itself needed a fan to suck up the hot air. One of the thinks that was a bummer is that the AC unit is to small for the size room as it always felt really warm even after putting it to 62. Key West in July is hot so you want a good AC. The location was great. Breakfast was pretty good with cereal, muffins, Danish, 2 peeled refrigerated boiled eggs, bananas, juices and coffee.

Excellent.

10/10 Exceptional

We absolutely love this place! We had four couples with us and we all loved it. Very quaint, tropical, and convenient. A bar on one side and ice cream parlor on the other. Room was your basic motel but cute and clean. Will definitely be staying here again.
JEFF, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Quant property in the heart of ‘Southermost’ away from the high traffic touristy areas. I loved that it had a bar, nightly live music, dessert truck & 2 pools on site with multiple beaches, food options & Trolley stop 11 within a few blocks.
