We had a great experience at this property in Key West. When we made the reservation, we asked for a first floor room since my husband is handicap. The owner was responsive and our room was on the first floor as requested. Overall great location right off Duval Street. It was a
Great location and good facilities. I have to comment that they don’t supply hand soap or shower soap. Super weird. We went to cvs and got bar soap. We were told they don’t supply and we over heard other guests also asking for soap so it wasn’t just us.
Pool was nice but a little “barren” feeling with minimal greenery. For the price I would say it was a good value.
In the heart of old Key West, it's perfect tourist location. Right off Duval St., walking distance to everything. The room was clean, but next to front door, it can be noisy. You can hear other guests came and go and can easily hear the road noise (along w/ the roosters every morning.) Very basic room. Would be nice to have a 2nd chair and even a small table. Lots of open space, but not much space (table tops) to set anything down. Basic breakfast amenities across the street are a nice touch. It is pet friendly, and will depend on owners, but people across the hall would leave their dog in the room for hours and it would whine and bark non stop.
Everything was great and you could not beat the location. Communication was great and we enjoyed ourshelves. I would recomend earplugs if you are on the bottom floor and someone is upstairs. Other than that we have a wonderful stay.
This property and room where great . It had everything you needed and was clean The location was absolutely great. Near to all restaurants and shopping. You can park your car and walk to it all or rent a scooter next door and get around town with no worries of parking. We will be back again and would recommend to anyone that wants to visit key west . Thank you for a great place

Location is awesome! Room was mostly clean but a little dusty and some random hairs hanging off the blinds in the bathroom. What would keep us from staying at the James House again is the bed (quite literally the MOST uncomfortable mattress I have ever slept in…well, tried to sleep) and all of the noise wasn’t much. People yelling to each other in the hallway and talking outside the room door, loud footsteps on the wood floors, doors slamming, hearing everything upstairs - you can everything in the house and there’s no sleeping in. Would love to try the main property but I hear the water pressure is so bad you can’t wash your hair.
