Good budget stay in convenient location

As far as key west is concerned, this is a great budget hotel and easy walking to most places touristy. We based our stay here on using the e scooters on site to get around and had all kinds of issues which was unfortunate. The breakfast included was great. I do have an odd charge to follow up on with the hotel

4/10 Fair

Resort fees without resort amenities.

What we liked: Big shower, nice staff What we didn’t like: Very small room, no water pressure, large gap in door to outside(plenty of room for bugs to join us in the room), tight parking. No servicing of room during a three day stay. One night it rained and we waded ankle deep in water to the car. Can’t figure out what we paid a resort fee for!

This is a wonderful little motel with a great location and very accommodating staff. The rooms are just as advertised and the bed is very comfortable. The bathroom is small but cute. We were pleasantly surprised and very happy with our stay. Both pools are amazing, close to so many key locations for site seeing and oh, the ice cream truck!
