After reading numerous reviews on Trip Advisor, I booked two nights at the Ocean Breeze Inn for my husband and me. Let me start out by saying our accommodations in the "Cozy Queen" Room 25 were CLEAN. I had read so many negative reviews about experiences in the Keys with rodents, bugs, etc., that cleanliness was my top priority. The OBI is CLEAN. I checked with other guests who verified that their rooms were indeed top on the cleanliness scale as well. Looked like the walls had been recently painted. Linens were crisp and clean. Okay, that said, our room was extremely small. There was a queen bed with one night stand - not much room on either side of the bed. There was a small square table, two chairs and a small refrig & microwave opposite the bed, but there wasn't really room enough to sit at the table. The bathroom was proprotionately larger. Nice large shower, hanging rod for clothes and a suitcase stand. 3-drawer wicker dresser with glass top with ample space for toiletries, etc. Hair dryer provided. Plenty of light in both areas. Ample towels and pool towels provided. Ah, the pool... this has to be the smallest in-ground pool we've ever seen... a sign posted at the pool area stated that the "maximum occupancy" was 8 people! Several lounge chairs provided. But again... all was clean and well maintained. The 4 round tables with umbrellas served as seating for the continental breakfast. Breakfast was just sweet rolls, muffins, juice, coffee, cereal, milk, fresh fruit. "Philip" also placed a coffee maker in our room as I had requested. Each room has a parking space... We never moved the car until we left the island. The hotel rents bikes for $15.00 a day and I highly recommend getting around the town this way. Parking down by Mallory Square, Duvall Street, etc. varies from $4/hr to $35/day... if you can find a space! The rental bikes are in good shape, have a roomy basket and the hotel provides a substantial lock. Plenty of bike racks around Key West. We paid $233/night... not what you would expect for that price but Kew West is very PRICEY. Remember it is small... but we really didn't spent much time in the room. The 5 rooms in back of the main building, have small decks... that's where I had my moring coffee before the breakfast was ready and where I read.

Upon arrival at the Ocean Breeze we were warmly welcomed by DJ, he showed us several rooms for us to choose from but was not pushy in trying to get us to upgrade our previously reserved room, he just wanted to show us our options. He was very friendly and answered all of our touristy questions. Our room was clean and cozy and comfortable. We stayed for 3 nights and our only complaint would be that they ran out of coffee by 8:40 each morning but that is because some of the other guests were filling huge travel mugs instead of using the smaller styrofoam cups provided. It wasn't that big of an issue, but when you've got your whole day planned in crazy Key West, you want to get up and get moving fast! We brought our own bicycles and never got back in the car until it was time to go home:(
We would definitely go back to the Ocean Breeze Inn

My finance and I stayed here for Thanksgiving. This place is great. It is located on the quiet end of Duval and only one block from the beach. The place is keep very clean and DJ is absolutely great. We felt very welcomed and appreciated. Key West is a very quaint island with lots of family owned business which we loved. Ocean Breeze definately fits the bill. It only has about 20 rooms if that and they are well worth the price. We caught a special "Book 3 nights get 1 free". We can't wait to return to Ocean Breeze Inn.

My friend and I had a wonderful stay here - we chose one of the the double poolside rooms!! Admittedly the pool is very tiny - but it's a nice tranquil area to chill, read a book maybe, thats if you have time in Key West!! The rooms look deceivingly small from the outside - but once you step inside it's a different matter!! Lots of space - 2 large comfortable beds - a well stocked kitchenette with breakfast bar - Cable TV - and loved the ceiling fan and wood beams!! There was a separate area to store our luggage and hang up clothing - which also had a large mirror and dressing area!! The bathroom was spacious - plenty of clean towels!! Information leaflets on Key West were provided inside the room and also outside at reception!! The main thing about our stay, was the cleanliness of the room - everywhere was so clean and that is a main factor for me - the sheets/towels were white, kitchen area, tiled floors, bathroom, all surfaces were immaculate, and with plenty of windows - the room was bright and airy!!

We were made to feel very welcome by the Managers/Owners - they were very helpful on both occasions when we approached them for information!!

What can I say - an enjoyable stay!!!
