Rooms are small and dated but functional. Windows let draft in and workers start working on building early so don’t expect to sleep late. But convenient location, priced high but still in Key West it’s one of the lower rates. Enjoyed our stay here. Loved the chickens… bring a couple pieces of bread for them.

You get what you pay for. This was a hostel with shared bathroom etc. It has been 50 years since I stayed in a hostel and wanted to revisit my youth. There was only a thin sheet no blanket but I still managed to get reasonable sleep. Easy walking distance to all the sites and restaurants etc. Can recommend if you are traveling on a budget.

The property was clean and updated with a king size bed. The bathrooms were nicely updated with tile but there was no hot water. The property was well lit but outdated on the exterior. The locations was nice, just a few blocks from Duvall St.

Expedia shows beautiful pictures of a courtyard with grills. That area is no longer available. It's a complete pile of rubble and cement pieces as they prepare to put in a pool there. When I booked the property, I did not see that Expedia mentions that the property is under construction, but it is buried way down in the property write up. It is not clearly identified by Expedia at the top of the description of the place nor are the pictures changed so what you see is NOT what you will get!!! We left after one evening and demanded a refund because that isn't that right! They do not upfront communicate that the property is under instruction. BEWARE!!!

There is no one at the front desk. An access key will be sent to you by email in advance, and you can use it to open the entrance and room doors. The rooms are clean and there is a Whole Foods Sale just a 5 minute walk away.

The staff was great. The room was clean. It was just very small for the price. It was very convenient to everything so you can walk or bike to all the stuff easily. I would recommend it, but i believe its much cheaper during the week.
