Great proximity to everything we wanted!

We loved staying at this place! Starting with the off street parking and a mile or less walk to mallory square and the southernmost point! You are a block off duval street and it is a great location!

We checked out today. I do not know if there is any follow up on the cleaning crew but they must do the absolute minimum. The floors were FILTHY and were not cleaned before we checked in for sure. The tiles were stained with dried blood or a dark liquid, the floor of the shower had several large cracks that felt like the floor would give way if you stepped on the cracks. The unit needs some real maintenance- cracked filthy tiles in the bedroom, the bathroom door is literally peeling apart at the bottom, the shower needs a good bleach job, the stove is ancient, etc…. The owners need to do an inspection and determine whether they would stay there themselves. I felt dirty just being in there. Very disappointing. Only pros- good location, very cold AC, clean bedding and towels, on-site small 4 foot pool but we did not use.

Location is great. Pool was great and clean. Deck and house could use some repairs (deck was kinda dangerous with rotten boards). House was clean except for floors. Bed was really comfortable. Would stay again!

Key West Stay

The overall stay was fine. There was an issue with the pool pump not working and it took three days for the situation to be resolved. We feel we should be compensated for not having a pool as advertised for almost half of our stay. The floors aren't being cleaned satisfactorily. Feet turn black if you go barefoot.

Perfect Spot for us

We had a great stay. The bed needs to be replaced. It is ridiculous to think 2 people can sleep on it. It slants so badly. Husband slept on couch. Pool was off and cloudy. We turned filter on and all was good.

The location simply cannot be beat and with a dedicated off-street parking space next to Duval street this place is a rare find. The interior is not spectacular but you are paying for the location. The floor is a little slanty in places, the shower had a bit of mold, the bed was not the most comfortable, but all this pales in comparison to a space directly off Duval street with a parking spot. It has a pool but we never used it; too busy getting drunk along Duval.
