Check in was smooth and front desk staff were very friendly. The exterior of the hotel is showing it's age and looks a bit worn. The room was okay. Basic accomodations but clean and sufficient. Pretty far from town, parking is a pain and cabs are expensive. Not the best location if you are planning on spending a lot of time on Duval Street. I selected this property based upon price.

It's what I paid for - a cheap hotel with a bed and shower. We didn't have any problems. Slept fine, everything was clean (bathroom fan was very loud - like a turbine engine, but not a big deal).. Cheapest place on the island we could find (I think we paid 130 a night). Location was great (but then again, the key is really small - not really any bad locations!). Would definitely stay here again if visiting key west.

By the way, we booked on the hotel's website directly, which was thirty dollars cheaper than any of the hotel websites we looked at. As long as you don't mind that it's non-refundable, you might want to check out their website before you book.

Around Midnight, a rooster started crowing....then his buddy joined in for about 10 mnutes. Every 20 mins....just as we were getting back to sleep, they would start again.

When we complained to the manager, we were told that it is "part of the culture" and they can't do anything about it. Locals that we spoke with said they had heard that rumor but rarely ever heard any roosters.

If you are used to a farm yard...this is the place for you. If not, find somewhere else if you want to sleep.

I had read many reviews on this motel before we left for our trip. It had a great rate on the internet so we chose to stay even with a few poor reviews. I found this motel to be very clean and employees to be very nice. Patty at the front desk was most helpful. Our room was spacious and well laid out. The pool area was clean and the water clear with plenty of towels available. My only complaint is that there was very little seating to eat the free breakfast. So we just took it to our room and ate there.I am a 17 year veteran motel manager and could find few faults with this motel.
