We had a lovely stay at the Porch. Communication was excellent. Rider was great to work with and met us upon arrival to help us find a parking spot. She helped with our bags and took us to our room along with an explanation of how things work. She provided some excellent dining options (Cafe Sole and the Thirsty Mermaid). Our room was quiet and comfortable, and loved our porch. Easy walking distance to Duval and the ferry terminal. Highly recommend as they made us feel welcome.

Two night stay. Very enjoyable.
The hotel was renovated 2 years ago & is extremely comfortable. The staff & owner are very welcoming.
Thank you

Wonderful stay! Jeff made sure we got a parking spot right in front of the door at check in. The room was very nice. The bed was comfortable and the walk in shower was great. Rider checked in with us a couple of days ahead of our stay to see if we needed anything and to get us the info we needed for check in. The location was perfect. We never drove once after we arrived. Everything was easily in walking distance. I would recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again if we are back in Key West.
4.8
Very helpful and friendly management.

Overall a great stay.

We loved our stay here! The staff is super accommodating, she saw there was an empty Parking spot and grabbed it for us! How sweet. The room was perfect and super clean. Loved the location - quiet but close enough to everything. Definitely recommend!
4.8
The room is very small with 2 large drawer units that take up a lot of room. Despite advertising free parking there is no parking besides street parking which is hard to come by, they did move one of their vehicles to a resident spot to allow us to park. There is rarely anyone on-site which is inconvenient at times. We only saw the inn keeper upon arrival, which was awkward because she was on the phone with her boss for at least 10 minutes, I helped myself to the lobby restroom which had no tissue. We had asked for our room to be cleaned/turned over and it never happened. Lack of privacy, as other guests sat directly outside our room and we could hear them talking so I am sure they could hear us.

Awesome Porch, central to dining, nightlife
4.8
Our host was so helpful and knowledgeable
the crib sheet of where to dine was very good
the property was perfectly vintage and traditional, very comfortable bed, great shower and a lovely high basin ( great for creaky backs!)
i struggle to sleep on holiday-but not here!
Highly recommended
thanks Jeff

The location is awesome. Very walkable and the rooms are beautifully updated. Jeff was an excellent host and responded very quickly to our questions/ requests. Will definitely stay here again!!

On positive side it looks recently refurbished…
Location is bit far from Duval. As its old house you can hear everything from other rooms and from outside. Our room was very dark. Just 2 yellow lights.
A/C was working poorly…
They don’t answer your email before your arrival…
You need to call when arrive to get instructions to enter. Good that we had US number, if not, roaming charges would be super high. And we arrived around 2 pm… there was no one..
And its full of rules that i firstly had to listen on phone while standing with bags on porch, than they were listed in the room too. No A/C bellow 70 (also writen on remote) which couldn’t cool down room. Don’t keep lights in bathroom too long, when use toilet use it lightly….
Also there were a lot of small ants….
Every day when leaving the room, there was a lady shouting/asking for our room number in the middle of the street, even i sad we don’t need anything she was insisting on our room number so anyone on the street could hear… I suppose she was in charge for cleaning as never introduced herself.
Oohh it could be so much better if they care about customers…

The place is sparkling clean, the staff is welcoming.

We had a brilliant stay here. It is walking distance from everywhere on the island, but also far enough away from the liveliness of Duval St. The room was spotless, has recently been renovated also so is modern. On street parking right beside the property also. Jeff is a very helpful and communicative host, and has great recommendations for places to eat and what to do. Really delighted with our stay here and hope to return one day soon.

Just a wonderful place to stay in Key West. Excellent room and bathroom. A/C was fantastic and the wifi allowed me to work remotely when I wanted to just catch up on a few emails while on vacation. Lovely hosts!
4.8
Great location in Old Town. We stayed in the Panama Suite which was spacious and well appointed. Highly recommend!
4.8
This is such a nice cozy property with updated interiors in old town key west! The room was super clean, and the patio was spacious as we had our own outdoor seating area. It is a bit away from Duval, about 15 min walking. We opted for the on-site bike rentals for $15 day, which ended up being perfect-you really need a bike to get around the town, it saves you so much time. The area was quiet which I preferred as we weren’t there to party but take in the scenery, attractions, and food. The front desk was communicative from a week’s out via text, so if we needed anything we just had to message. A great weekend getaway!
4.8
The property was great, the owner was very accommodating and even met us on arrival after a day of flight delays. We would highly recommend this property for anyone traveling to Key West.
4.8
Great room comfortable and quiet. Great location. Proprietor was very helpful and accommodating when we experienced scheduling issues due to late flights. Will definitely stay here again.

Just a beautiful nice clean place. Staff and all are super. Will come back many more times. Rooms are superior and clean.

Stayed here after my wedding and it was a perfect experience, they set up the room just as asked to make for a perfect stay. Rooms are very nice and friendly staff.
4.8
With all the places to stay in Key West this is a hidden gem. Located within about a 12 minute walk from Key West Express this is a beautiful historic home built in 1860’s but has been beautifully modernized. It’s off the beaten path and quiet but still within walking distance of Duval Street. Owner is a super nice guy who recommended a great place called Pepe’s for a great, low cost breakfast. Our next stay will definitely be at Porch on Frances Street.
4.8
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! From being greeted by Tisha to our clean and comfortable room! We stayed in the Huckley room and we were so content and happy! We loved the suggestions for restaurants and activities! We used the bikes for two days to get around town which was so much fun! We can’t wait to come back and visit!

The owner Jeff and staff truly made this a unique experience. The porchs truly lived up to their name. We would highly recommend staying here and will be back again.
4.8
Nice place, comfortable, clean , quiet. Not too many restaurants nearby but not a bad walk to access them. Not overpriced!
4.8
We really loved staying here! It was nicely decorated, true to the history of the home, very clean, and well thought out. The owner/manager was friendly and accomodating.
The only negative is not about the Inn but the parking, or lack of. When we checked in, Jeff moved his vehicle to give us the space in front. If you move your car, be prepared to do a lot of searching!
4.8
Only one night which was too short time but the location was perfect for that and also possibility to rent bicycles was great!
4.8
Beautiful building with great character. Owner was very personable. Couple of issues: Although booking site indicated breakfast when we arrived the owner said it was an Inn and breakfast was not included. He blamed Hotel.com taking no responsibility. This is despite the fact we sent a note indicating we needed a gluten free breakfast to the site prior to arrival. As we found out there was a drinking water ban on during our stay. We were told this from a restraint not the Inn. When we told the owner he said it was the City’s fault for not letting him know. Took no responsibility for being aware of thing that impact his customers. He did buy some water for the guests.
4.8
It was perfect. We stayed in this area before and love it.
4.8
Such a beautiful property and in a quiet location that is convenient to everything. Jeff made us feel welcome before we even arrived. We can’t wait to return later this year!
4.8
Parking is a challenge, but the owner, Jeff is a wonderful person. You will feel homely environment, clean and eco friendly rooms and really a walkable distance from all the major landmark in Key West.
