What an incredible find one block away from main drag, Duval Street. Very clean, updated with incredible staff. Michael and Dina were and always willing to help. Walking distance to shopping, dining, water sports, etc. The complimentary breakfast and afternoon tea were a game changer for us. They’ve made the most out of the small city side rooms. Only negative Was the tv was locked and guest are unable to utilize their own streaming services while staying at hotel. In the grand scheme of things, it was fantastic and I’d stay here again!

Staff was super friendly.. pool is small but very clean and grounds are well maintained. Rooms were small (we had a city view king) and no closet (in room handing rack and under bed storage drawers). Continental breakfast and afternoon tea/snacks by the pool were good. Great walking location in key west . Super close to Duval. We walked everywhere.
