Booked a one-week trip through Expedia for what I thought would be the full price of the stay at the Lighthouse Hotel, like I have for many trips through Expedia. Low and behold, I had a charge to my credit card after I checked out for several hundred dollars.. I called the hotel and was told that this was for the daily maid service, which they only came every other day while I was there. The hotel stated Expedia must have included this in the fine print when I booked it. Either way, it's an underhanded practice on both Expedia and the Lighthouse Hotel...I won't be using either in the future.

The room (Number 24) was spacious! The breakfast was wonderful and the location is ideal. You can see the lighthouse from the rooms upstairs. It is also right across the street from Hemingway House. Love all the roosters walking around. Just beware that they do crow starting at 3 am.

We enjoyed our stay at this historic hotel which has a great location for walking anywhere in the older part of town. Staff were friendly and helpful, the included continental breakfast poolside was excellent and we enjoyed the on-site bar and live music on a couple occasions. Comfortable beds, but chairs in rooms could have been more conducive to relaxing.

Liked: Cleanliness
The location was awesome and the staff was kind and attentive but the room was not great. First, the shower was tiny and took a long time to produce hot water. Sometimes, the water never got hot and was luke warm or even luke cold. The shower floor was spongy and the shower head was basic. The hotel provided shampoo and conditioner but we noticed that the shampoo, body wash, and hand soap were all the same product. The bed was comfortable but the room had plantation shutters that let in a lot of light at night. We could not make the room fully dark. The roosters started crowing around 3:30am and sounded like they were right outside the room, making it difficult to sleep. If I visit Key West again, I’d choose to stay someplace else because I need to sleep and shower comfortably.

The room and pool area were clean and pleasant. Good hospitality from staff including bartenders Alejandro and Jefferson. Unfortunately, the room remained humid due to the bathroom connection to the rest of the unit (above door) and wall A/C unit. Biggest drawback is the roosters on property and next door which do their best to wake you up at 4:00 AM. I suggest ear plugs and/or other sleep aids.
