This cute little motel was a perfect spot for a couple nights in Key West. It was walkable to the trolley line and even with some construction work on the new pool it was quiet. The room was darling and clean and front staff was helpful in helping us find things to do.

The pool is a construction site so it feels like staying at a construction site, as it is it very close to your doors. It will be nice when finished but right now it is comically ugly they should give a discount for the state of the motel right now. The rooms were nice and very clean though.

Rooms are small and dated but functional. Windows let draft in and workers start working on building early so don’t expect to sleep late. But convenient location, priced high but still in Key West it’s one of the lower rates. Enjoyed our stay here. Loved the chickens… bring a couple pieces of bread for them.

We got one of the more recently updated rooms, which was perfect for what we needed! Everything was really good for the price, however, the seals on the doors/windows are non-existent. expect to hear everything outside from a sneeze to a car driving by. also they are currently under construction which was not advertised anywhere but the fine print on hotels.com so no pool as advertised :/
