we had a great stay! everything was beautiful. just one tiny thing i wish someone was there to assist in carrying/helping luggage get into the building. i unfortunately dropped numerous things including a beverage on my way in, resulting in stained shoes. it would of just been helpful with assistance since you're paying a good amount to stay here! other than that everything was great.

This is definitely a classy tropical oasis in the middle of Key West . Each rooms are filled with vibrant colors , and are comfortable and clean . Since it’s surrounded by a canopy of palms and trees , you can sit on the balcony with privacy and calm. So relaxing and peaceful.

1. It figured out that the parking was not provided while it was mentioned in the listing that free parking is available. It was framed the way it conceals the reality. 2. It took an extra effort to get Wi-Fi password. 3. It wasn’t possible to adjust air conditioner. It blew super cold and there was no chance to do anything about it. I had to sleep with a bed sheet on my head not to get cold.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Location was convenient and pool and tub were adequate but Inn condition was old. Carpets smelled like urine from the office up the stairs, so dirty, dreaded walking out of the room. Room upstairs was fine but no place to put toiletries. Shower water wasn't stable. Booked 4 days, left after 1 and wasn't given any refund, manager refused to acknowledge the smell. Not sure how she's getting 5 star ratings.

There's a problem with the shower drain so it kept filling up and the shower knob kept falling off. Very difficult to get in and out of the hot tub. Other than that this is probably the best bed and breakfast in the neighborhood.
