Truman Annex is a secure gated community in the midst of historic Old Town Key West, one of the most requested locations for travelers to Key West. Located at the entrance to Fort Zachary Taylor State Park with one of our finest beaches and only 2 blocks from infamous Duval Street with shops, galleries, bars and restaurants from the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic Ocean, this spot is the ideal beach rental in the Florida Keys. Walk to Truman's Little White House, the Hemingway House, Lighthouse Museum or the Sunset Celebration at Mallory Square. Everything is within easy reach; you'll never want to leave.
Key West is the place to visit the lively nightlife and relax in the historic charm, flamboyance, and conch-style architecture that early Bahamian settlers made famous. It embodies a clash of the past and the present, and every building (including this rental) in Key West reflects this eclectic ambiance!

Quiet & safe neighborhood. Kitchen for the most part had everything we needed. Bedrooms are smaller so it was tight (and we pack pretty light) . They could improve it with better beds.

Great property!
We spent ten days in Key West in October at this property. When we arrived, it was fully stocked with everything we needed minus perishables. The condo has great amenities and an excellent location to Old Town activities. Check in and check out were easy and fast. We highly recommend this unit!

Nice Condo/ Trouble getting into complex
We enjoyed the stay at Key West. We arrived after dark, picked up our keys at the office in the lock box. When we arrived at the condo there was a gate to get in . There was no gate code on my literature to get into the complex. I had to call the emergency number to get the code to get in. The next morning I was reading literature that was in the condo about parking passes for the cars it advised me Togo to a Front st. Address/ bldg 21 to get a parking pass. This literature was from 2013. I went to the Address and inquired about the need for a parking pass and they had no idea what I was talking about. I did speak with someone there and they advised me that I needed just to go to the guard shack and request one.
After that was all taken care we did enjoy our stay. Will plan on returning!

This was a nice property and perfect for our group. The unit was clean and well kept. We enjoyed the back patio a lot. The area is the perfect distance away from many attractions and quiet enough at night to be able to rest. Great place!

Great Trip to Key West
The property is very nice and everything was clean when we arrived. Check in directions were easy to follow; there were no contact procedures due to COVID and our keys were left for us in a locked box. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels, blankets, and pillows. The complex is quiet, and we had an assigned parking spot. We enjoyed using the pool and meeting some of our neighbors. We had plenty of space except for my giant suitcase (I always overpack) had to be placed in the living room floor. This property is well-taken care of and we highly recommend it. It is located in Old Town section of Key West and we were able to walk to Duval Street and lots of restuarants, shops, and museums. Thanks for making our trip comfortable and enjoyable!

Not as clean as I like.
The property was not as clean as I would like, the floors needed scrubbed when walking in socks they turned black, also the beds were very uncomfortable, the mattress pad was too big and the contents in the comforts were bunched up. Also the people above us would run their
washer anytime and could be heard in our bedroom when we were trying to sleep. I will not be using HomeAway again.

Truman Annex
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Truman Annex. It is close to everything so you can walk to downtown. I would recommend staying in Truman Annex if you are planning a stay in Key West., I did not give it a four star rating since the photos of our place said there was an outside grill to grill fish and there was a George Foreman grill only.
