Charming hotel
Very quaint and unique property. Originally two separate Victorian homes (1880) that have been blended into a seemles charming hotel. Complimentary breakfast had a nice assortment, rooms are very clean and well apointed. It's location is in the "quiet" part of Old Town so it is a bit of a walk to any action. We rented an eCart from A&M.
The pool is salt water. Happy hour is from 3-5 at the cabana bar pool side.

Nice clean room. Property is very Florida. Pool was great. Nice little happy hour by the pool. Pitfall is not enough parking right by the hotel. Had to park 2 streets over.

Walls are paper thin and someone had a small dog that barked a lot. Staff was friendly and helpful. Not a luxury hotel but clean.

We stayed 2 nights in the Jr. Suite. We were supposed to be a party of 3, but ended up with just two but it was nice to have the extra space. All employees were so kind & helpful. I found the breakfast to be good. Nice selection without getting too fancy. Fruit was great, so fresh. We did get a parking spot in the street. My personal tip is to try to arrive in KW around check out when people are leaving. You can walk around until your room is ready.
We don't drive the car once we arrive. We walked the first day but it was a bit too much for me (having health issues with walking) and used Uber the rest of the time. Not too expensive.
Didn't use the pool but it was super clean & the bathroom by the pool was actually air conditioned.
I loved the little parakeets on the side of the building.
Thank you for a great stay!

If you are looking for a unique experience in Key West, this hotel complements any vacation plans seamlessly. The hotel itself is walking distance from all the sightseeing locations. The staff was always courteous and helpful. The room was meticulously cleaned and welcoming upon return from the day's activities. I had been extremely happy with my first stay here and am already planning on coming back for future stays.

We planned a quick weekend trip to Key West and wanted somewhere that we could take our dog with us. This place was convenient, reasonably priced and accepted pets. We really enjoyed our weekend here and will return.

We loved it
We needed a room with light accommodations for one night. J offered myself and my husband a petite suite. Everything was amazing including J and her staff. The breakfast was a plus. We plan to stay here for our future trips.
