    Perfect for a Family Weekend Getaway

    The stay was memorable, especially having breakfast by the pool every morning. I loved the cleanliness of the room and how comfortable the beds were, perfect after a long day exploring.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap, but honestly, given the experience, it was acceptable.

    fantastic pool
    breakfast options
    noisy air conditioning

    The motel exceeded expectations with a clean and spacious room. A fantastic pool area for relaxing. However, the breakfast options could definitely use improvement, and the noise from the air conditioning was bothersome at times. Overall a solid choice for a short stay.

    Great location and clean rooms, but $15 daily parking feels like a cash grab.

    I loved the modern decor of our room and the inviting pool area, which was perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The friendly staff made my stay even more enjoyable with their helpfulness and kindness.

    Breakfast offerings could use more variety.

    poor service
    disappointing response
    unresolved issue

    Stunning renovation with exceptionally clean rooms that feel more upscale than a typical motel. The pool area provides a lovely ambiance, perfect for breakfasts featuring traditional regional homemade products. However, I experienced poor customer service regarding a forgotten item, which unfortunately cast a shadow over my visit. The staff's indifferent response was quite disappointing compared to past stays.

    great location
    limited breakfast
    parking fee

    The continental breakfast was a solid start to each day, with boiled eggs that hit the spot! Plus, the pool area was an absolute gem—perfect for lounging between eating adventures. The location made exploring Key West a breeze, and the staff were super friendly, always ready to help out!

    The breakfast setup could use a little sprucing up—same ol' cold bagels and muffins every day got old. A bit more variety, like some fruits or cereal, and extending the breakfast hours would crank up the fun vibes even more! Also, charging for parking felt a bit much, especially after shelling out for the room.

    food truck
    excellent options

    Just a reliable pick for a date night in Key West with extraordinarily good value for money. The food truck on-site had excellent options at reasonable prices. Make sure to request a first-floor room if stairs are an issue.

    good location but minor noise issues

    The parking was convenient and a great benefit. The staff were accommodating and made our stay pleasant. The bathroom facilities were well-maintained and appreciated.

    spacious room
    friendly staff
    poor tv reception

    Had an awesome time with friends! The location was perfect for hitting up Duvall Street and the beach nearby. The rooms were clean and spacious, and the breakfast was decent to kickstart our days. The staff were super friendly, and I really appreciated the complimentary coffee available all day.

    Only downside was the TV reception was pretty poor in our room, which was a bit disappointing. Would have loved to unwind with a good show after our adventures.
