Private parking for guest which is a big plus in this area. Newly renovated rooms.
3.8
Very clean, quiet and comfortable. Close to all fun things Key West. I booked the 10 bed dormitory but had the entire place to myself. The front desk staff was so polite and held my bags until I could check in. This is an amazing place for the price!

Seeing rooster anywhere, parking lot free, people are nice, close to Streets you like, clean, clean, clean, and we are happy with all.
3.8
It is an excellent location walking to the exciting places.
They should have a clear guidelines for free parking place, otherwise you have a risk to get penalty for illegal parking and tow truck fee.
I paid USD55 ticket and USD250 tow tuck fee.
3.8
The location was great and the room was spacious! Front desk was very kind and helpful.
3.8
My room was a king room. Just enough space for 2 people. Big bathroom with great water pressure in the shower but only a trickle from the sink. There's no pool like shown on Google. It's a couple blocks from Duval st. That's where the fun takes place. $8 ubers anywhere on duval but you could easly walk. Beach access only a 3min walk and the southern most point is about a 5min walk.
3.8
The most budget friendly stay in Key West. Great location, cute property, friendly staff. Room had fridge, microwave and coffee maker. While property is dated it offers everything one needs for a comfortable stay. Would definitely recommend.
3.8
Warm and welcoming reception! We were upgraded to a larger room. The room was so comfortable, very clean (which was nice after a dirty hotel room stay in Miami), great open area to sit outside. Will return!! Thanks for the great stay. Loved having a tv to watch the Stanley cup final. We used the outdoor kitchen to make breakfast.
3.8
The beach, the southernmost point, and Duval street are all in walking distance from this cute youth motel.
3.8
This is such a cute property with very friendly staff. The location is excellent to get to the downtown and beaches quickly.
3.8
This is the cheapest place to stay in expensive Key West. It is located not far from the southern most point and has good, free parking. That said it is rather charmless, although it has a nice courtyard for picnics, relaxing, etc.
3.8
Friendly, helpful staff. Clean & comfortable room. Walking distance from the beach. Would stay here again.
3.8
After I had booked this place and we arrived I was told we would be sharing the room with 17 people. It did say shared room but it said nothing about the extreme. Beware of how this company advertises the room. For all I knew, shared room could have meant i am sharing a room, which I was, with my son, but it did definitely not mean that. Scary

Very comfortable and large bed. Laundry available. We could walk to the fort and downtown from the lodge (around a mile or so). Good less expensive option for Key West.
3.8
Nice staff and very clean I just wasn’t comfortable staying in a hostel.
3.8
My wife and I stayed for two nights, our greeting was friendly, professional and extremely helpful (thank you). Was a Hilton hotel? nope, was it the same cost as a Hilton NOPE, did we sleep the same as a Hilton- yes, we did. So, overall we were really pleased with the stay, beds made, coffee, fresh soap, towels replaced each day - come on… what more do you want? Oh, nearly forgot- Key West is great fun, very much worth a visit.
3.8
A charming remodeled older motel. Nice location near the Southern Most Point. The manager, Peter, was excellent. We very much enjoyed our 2 night stay.

It’s a hostel in Key West. My roommates weren’t rude or perverted. So best hostel experience I’ve had.
Obviously amazing location.

Of course, everything is relative but I still cannot believe that the cost of living in Key West is so high.

Clean. Comfortable. Can’t beat the price. I’ll definitely be getting a bunk anytime I come back down solo.

Cheap and really close to the beach/Duval St. Convenient and perfect for just staying the night while exploring during the day

Super friendly front desk staff, easy access to Duval St.

For the cheapest place to stay, you really can't beat this.... The 2 guys that I met that work there are awesome very friendly. I was happy to stay there and will do it again if I come back alone.

Seashell is Clean and Cozy Comfort. Short walk to Southernmost point of Key West FL. With close by Trolley, Conch Train, and free Duval Loop transport to all of Island attractions.
3.8
A more affordable option for the area if you don't mind sharing space. 😇 Privates available. Female traveling alone. I felt safe.
Place was basically quiet day and night. Other guests around but quiet and respectful. Staff friendly and efficient. New towel daily you dont have to rent 😀
It's not your typical youth hostel or party hostel but there are ops for socializing if you are up to it. I have stayed at hostels in Europe, Scandinavia, Caribbean and the US. I had no issues here.
Ashtrays provided outdoors. There is a grill at the outdoor kitchen. Nice set up for group or roomie potluck/BBQ. Easy walk to nightlife, the popular Duval Street and nearby beach.

I was happy i could book this room 24 hours before i arrived. Staff was kind and accommodating. The room is basic, but very clean. The property is old and in a residental area. It has no amenities and requires a three block walk to get anything. Key West is a small island, so nothing is to far to walk. If a traveler is looking for a clean place to sleep and shower, I would recommend this property.
