Beautiful room and big comfortable bed. I loved all the books in the room!
Not exactly a dislike but something to be aware of…it is about a 20 minute walk to the main area of Key West.
Breakfast was quite basic, packaged food/not fresh or home cooked.

Quartier paisible, loin du bruit
Chambre Wilder. Matelas complètement défoncé, déjeuner avec aliments enveloppés et quelques fruits. Premiers arrivés premiers servis.

Sauberkeit, Parkplatz im Preis enthalten .
Mürrischer Check-in, für all unsere Fragen hinsichtlich Fahrradverleih, öffentliche Verkehrsmittel, Attraktionen und Tipps etc wurden wir auf Google verwiesen. Liebloses plastikverpacktes Frühstück erst ab 8:30h, kein indoor Frühstücksraum vorhanden Nächtlicher Straßenlärm! Kein Platz für die Koffer obwohl als größeres Zimmer deklariert.

The breakfast was packaged Bagels and Muffins
I’m not sure if they had hot water as I would have enjoyed tea
There was also oranges and bananas but one day I asked for a banana and he brought out one
The last night we were there no one showed up in the morning until 8:30
And we had a plugged toilet.
No one answered the emergency number

Location, clean, nice rooms, nice outdoor space

Decent location, value for money
Needs a little TLC. Definitely time for some upgrading in the rooms, they’re looking rather tired. The steps outside which take you up to the second floor rooms are very dangerous when wet. One of our party slipped and hurt his back and after speaking to another traveller, we heard he had fallen too and apparently so had others!! They need some sort of non slip paint and definitely better lighting in the evening.
Breakfast could have been better, not a lot of selection.

Clean, comfortable room (Library).
Hot water/coffee/tea in room would have been great.

Clean, I liked the little soaking tub.
Website wasn't clear about details. Made it sound like parking was on site and had swimming pool (which it didn't) and room was VERY expensive for one night. Room very small.

A localização é razoável e o prédio tem um estilo bacana - característico de Key West. O quarto era bonito.
- Antes de mais nada, preço não é compatível com o hotel.
- A pessoa que atende, não sei se gerente, dono, é bem pouco amigável. Não gostaria de falar em antipatia, mas se aproxima disso.
- Anuncia ter garagem, mas não tem. Estacionamos na rua.
- A recepção é muito pequena e o café da manhã é servido ali.
- Café da manhã bem fraco
- O quarto é pequeno (conforme descrição) e não tem black out
- Banheiro não tem ventilação nem natural nem forçada. Fica úmido e a umidade vai para o quarto.
- As amenities (sabinete, shampoo, etc) são ruins. Abaixo das redes hoteleiras básicas.
- Não tem tomadas USB para carregamento de eletrônicos (é aceitável, mas ainda assim fica a crítica)
- Algo muito pouco importante, mas que ainda me impressiona: a tv não é smart
Resumo, perde pra holiday inn, quality inn, la quinta… e a lista poderia continuar.

It is a beautiful place.
We locked ourselves out of our room and never actually stayed overnight. The keys fell out of my pocket somewhere downtown. That was completely my fault. There was an emergency number to call after hours. We called several times leaving voice-mails, texts, and emails and got no response. We had to find another hotel for the evening. Losing the keys was my fault, but I'm diabetic and my medication was locked inside our room, and I could not take my medication. Someone has to monitor emergency calls.

Clean, cozy, and walking distance to town

Habilitación amplia, limpia, organizada, silenciosa, bonita. La cama muy confortable, me gustó mucho la zona, el hotel me encantó, el precio fue bastante bueno. Volvería feliz.
El desayuno podría tener waffles por ejemplo, pero no es malo.

Bequeme Betten
Große Zimmer
Die Frau beim Check-in war sehr nett
Sehr sauber
Nettes Frühstück
In den Zimmer hat es gut gerochen
Wasser (kalt und warm) sowie Kaffee zur freien Verfügung
Kleine Küche in der Suite
Whirlpool
Uns wurde ein falsches Zimmer zugewiesen (statt zwei Betten war es ein Queenbett). Da wir eine kleine Küche im Zimmer mit drin hatten, haben wir das Zimmer behalten.
Der Mann beim Check-out wirkte genervt und es schien ihm schwer zu fallen vom Smartphone hochzuschauen.
Wände sehr dünn (man hat selbst die Kühlschranktür im Nachbarzimmer gehört).
Übernachtungspreise, wie generell in Key West bzw. auf den Keys, sehr hoch. Dennoch würden wir hier wieder buchen, da es sehr sauber war und die Alternativen begrenzt sind.

Less than a 15 minute walk to the bars and restaurants. Cute rooms & funky decor.
Breakfast is lame. Staff superficially friendly.

Le cadre : ambiance tropical, maison de charme, piscine chaude.
L’emplacement : à une vingtaine de minutes de marche de tout les centres d’interêt de Key West, à quelques pas de supers restaurants.
La possibilité de parking à la maison sinon à proximité.
Le petit déjeuner : aucun produit frais sinon une clémentine, que du « low fat », du jus d’orange à base de concentré, des briquettes en veux tu en voila… dommage! A l’heure où l’écologie est l’affaire de tous de constater que tout était emballé individuellement et qu’il n’y avait même pas un bagel frais…
La porte « entre chambres » qui donnait sur la chambre du voisin laissant entendre à côté.

Emplacement au top à 20 minutes à pied de Duval street
Chambre poete spacieuse et propre
Accueil de la personne qui était totalement nonchalante. Nous avons eu l’impression de la déranger. C’est à peine si elle s’est levée pour le check out et nous a à peine salué le matin.
Chambres dans maison principale ancienne mal isolées
4.0
Bon hôtel, personnel souriant, bon emplacement dans la vieille ville (il faut quand même prendre son véhicule car a pied cela fait loin), parking gratuit dans la rue (quand il y a place, nous n'avons pas eu de problème). Le cadre, la propriété et le jacuzzi sont top (oui ce n'est pas une piscine comme indiqué sur l'annonce). La literie est incroyable.
Le déjeuner, passez ce supplément parce qu'il n'y a rien de frais à part des bananes, tout est sous vide ou en brique (lait, pomme, orange) de l'industriel quoi. Les chambres sont très mal insonorisées, on entend tout à travers la porte d'entrée ou la porte de la chambre communicante.

La struttura è accogliente, la stanza confortevole, il letto decisamente comodo. Buona la pulizia.
Migliorabile la colazione. Lo staff, pur cordiale, è parso un po ' sbrigativo.

Very nice place, beautiful room and facilities. It has a pool and an ice and water machine. Very nice place and staff. The bed was very very comfortable and the staff was very quick and efficient. It was literally the faster checkin ever! Simple as it should be
The breakfast was very simple. It was not bad, but could have maybe more stuffs.

Microwave in room would be handy to make a cuppa.
5.0
Parking was easy to find on the street and they provide 2 spots on the property that are 1st come first serve. There are restaurants within walking distance. Rent or bring a bike and that will open up the rest of Key West to you. Everything but Fort Zac are a short bike ride away. There are bike lanes that are clearly marked to get you back and forth to Duval. The property is well maintained. There is some road noise, but you are directly on White so it's to be expected. We were pleasantly surprised that each unit has newer ductless ac units on the walls that keep the bedrooms VERY cold, if that's your wish. Staying here during the peak heat of August was not a concern with the ac units. The jetted plunge pool in the back is a great touch. Beds were comfy and wifi was good enough for my wife to conduct her online business.
Can't really complain about anything.

Very cute. Breakfast. Garden area and hot tub.
Very small! Bathroom and bedroom both super small.

Location was great. They had water filter to refill bottles. Room was super clean & spacious. Fridges in room.
Ice machine didn’t work; soft spot in the shower (may need replacing soon); front desk clerk was nice first go around but I arrived early and was waiting on my room which they had to clean since check out was at 11 but I waited for over an hour and half when I was told it would be 5-10 minutes to mop the floor (I’m grateful for the early checkin but if I knew it would be awhile I would have grabbed lunch. Also, they never told me the room was ready I checked back a second time and felt like I was bothering the desk clerk by his mannerisms. I was never notified the room was ready as I sat with my toddler in the patio area waiting. We stayed on a week day so it was quite (also had a sound machine) but you definitely could hear through the walls.(the closed gate helps eliminate some of the noise)

I will forward my complaint to Booking.com
