I have been to Key West over 10 times and this was my first stay directly on Duval because I wanted to be walking distance to most of the nightlife. Be careful what you wish for and know what you are getting into and remember it’s Key West downtown when booking here. It’s a party 24/7! PROS: walkable to everything, small tiki bar out back of hotel and small private pool, lots of music from multiple bands can be heard ALL DAY AND NIGHT. Quaint old Florida feel to the building, lots of Florida wildlife around the property (lizards, chickens, ROOSTERS etc) think old school beach bungalow feel when visiting this property. If you like the old Florida feel and want to walk to the bars and food and be right in the mix then this is a great choice. CONS: You are literally downtown so get ready for that experience 24/7. It’s not a “hotel” but more like a multi room old house converted to individual rooms, walls are paper thin so you hear everything BRING EARPLUGS, roosters crowing ALL NIGHT, band out back plays till around 12 and tikibar is open later so no sleeping until about 2am at least. Garbage trucks early morning cleaning up the prior nights festivities around 6-7am but you will already be awake from the Roosters so no big deal right? Also you get to become intimate with your neighbors lives and conversations and bathroom usage at night due to the paper thin walls. If you want to party on Duval 24/7 this is the spot, if you want sleep and have any quiet time stay elsewhere.

We were stranded at the airport after being told that our flight was canceled. We started to look for a room through expedia. The correct date was entered but the app changed the date by one night. The room was booked for the wrong night. I reached out to EXpedia immediately and they were unable to contact the hotel at that time. We are now being told that we will not get a refund. This is horrible customer service . At least give a credit. We will continue to fight this and this will not be the last time you hear from us.

Disappointed, no parking, not private

went for Fantasy Fest. Location awesome. But..they let local body painter block what could have been an unloading drive. We had to park on the side of another road to unload our belongings and drag them to the hotel. We knew June while booking, that they were updating, by October our room, there were no refrigerators no microwaves no way to get food at the hotel. We booked expecting these things. There was a Wendy’s close. But they gave us literally a cooler we had to but ice for. The bartender Matt was amazing drinks were $25 a piece. The staff cleaned constantly and pool was nice. No elevator so don’t bring a lot of luggage to drag upstairs. We book a private balcony got a shared one. The hot water didn’t always work. And there was no way to really hang towels near shower door. They had modest improvements but no charging ports for cell phones. There was no curtain over our door. It did have blinds, but it didn’t block the view of our bed so anybody could look right in and see it even with the blinds closed our room also was right up against another room that has a door that had been sealed, but you could see shadows under the door and we could hear them talking the whole time as I’m sure they could hear us that really took away from the privacy for us. It was not a private hotel. People walked in off of the street and walked where they wanted. Some drunks kids slept on benches inside sat. $3900/5 days plus $30 a day to ark two blocks away

The management was top notch. The general manager was great and cared about how to make improvements. Matthew in the bar area was great. The people staying there were very friendly. The location was excellent. The Key West hotel is making improvements on the property and I cant wait to see what it looks like the next time we visit. Shannon and Steve Wallace

Happy but Not Happy

Room was big and had a little fridge and microwave. Good location to Mallory Square. But downfalls were no pool towels, little tiny bottles of shampoo, conditioner and body wash and there were 4 of us, no ice machine (had to buy bags of ice at CVS - if and when they had any in stock), NO PARKING and had to pay to park in a lot about 1/2 mile away every 24 hours. Difficult to unload the car upon arrival with traffic on Duval. Office is also not staffed 24/7. Might stay again for the room size and location though but will have to be better prepared if staying for more than one night.

It is right on Duval St which makes it accessible to almost everything in Old Town. However, the noise level in the evening and the morning hours it extends to definitely can be heard in the rooms. The venue is clean and nicely cared for the pool although smaller than in pictures was pleasant. When we booked the room, we were 3 people. By the time we arrived we were 2. Since one of us had a bad knee, we wish our booked accommodations was changed from the loft unit to one of the units at level, especially since they had vacancies. The loft is very inconvenient, especially for someone 71 years old. There is no bathroom upstairs. Trips in the evening to the bathroom...very dangerous. Also the kitchen?! does not have a sink to do dishes or water to make coffee. Everything has to be done in the bathroom. We met other residents at the pool who said there are other rooms that were more suitable. I don't want to give a poor review, I just thought they could have been more accommodating for older people and a knee problem.

Convenient location close to popular places and short walk to boat docks. However, should be advertised under "spare room for rent". Bathroom door door doesn't even have a door knob. No drawers or closet to store clothes. It was clean, but had a tiny single bed suitable for a child. Little or very disturbed sleep due to the loud bars close by. Very old wooden house, and you hear every step upstairs.
