Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was not clean. Mold in the shower. And when the room was cleaned it was not swept out. Just new towels and bed made. The soap dispenser did not function and the tops had to be removed. The Breakfast was very good and the staff was friendly.

Loved the Charm

The staff was friendly & accommodating. The hotel is historic, so don't expect a huge lavish room. If you are happy to experience the history and want to be able to say "We stayed at the Lighthouse Hotel" then this place is perfect. A patio room gets you a little courtyard & places you a few steps away from the pool. Charming & such a Key West vibe. Right across from the Hemingway home & steps away from Moon Dog!

First time in the Keys-won’t be the last!

Lovely hotel with beautiful gardens. We really enjoyed sitting out on the porch every morning and evening. Great breakfast with amazing coffee. Loved being able to walk to everything from this hotel.
