The hotel is lovely, quaint. The window AC in my room, however, was insufficient and the ceiling fan only operates on low. Housekeeping consists only of trash and towel service. I made my bed myself. On check in the person at the front desk simply drew a circle on the map to show where I could park. He was very vague. I had to call the office for the wifi PW. Twice he said it was in the black book in the room. I explained there was no book. I went to the office to get one and he simply said, "it's just full of stuff around here". I had to specifically ask for one. The book has breakfast hours, pool hours, etc. I had to ask another guest where breakfast was the first morning as it's in a closed room. The front desk person had vaguely pointed in the direction where breakfast is available, he seemed in a hurry. The ice machine is insufficient. I reported to the same desk person that the machine wasn't working and that the temp showed over 80°. His response was that someone must have used it all. Lastly, very tiny ants. I had purchased a box of fudge earlier in the day and laid it on top of the dresser. When I went to open the box it was swarming with these ants. An any trap or two in each room would likely make a difference.

A nice central place to stay in Key West. Unfortunately the property lacks parking. You can park on the street at a price, but even street parking is difficult to find. We had to park several blocks away.

We’ve been staying here for almost 20 years. Over the years the wear and tear has taken its toll and it’s time they start replacing some items. We stayed in room 11. The fixtures in the bathroom were beyond rusted

Heron House is very conveniently located one street from Duval. So it was within walking distance of most attractions but also quiet. The atmosphere was great and relaxing. The breakfast was about what I would expect for a casual BnB. It was adequate/fine but nothing special. What I didn't like: There was a small stain on the bedsheet. It was obviously a clean sheet, but I didn't want to see that. The soap dispenser in the shower was empty. All that being said, if I were to return to Key West, I would not be upset staying there again.

Just a couple of minutes walk off Duval Street

I was allowed to check in early - about two and a half hours. Front desk guy that checked me in was awesome in every way, up to and including, walking me to my room while explaining the layout of the property. Included breakfast consisted of pancakes, waffles, muffins and coffee. The lady that was setting up the breakfast and views also exceptional! The pool was sparkling clean. I will stay here again if available when I come back!

Recommend and will return

Enjoyed our stay. The room was a little dated but this property does an excellent job keeping it clean and operational. Staff was pleasant and professional. Location is perfect… private but close enough to walk to Duval.
