My boyfriend and I recently stayed at the Albury Court in Dec. 2007. We stayed in Room 24 which faced the back so was quiet. Warning - if you get a room facing Eaton street it would be extremely noisy as it's a very busy road. I knew from the reviews that the rooms are small but when I walked in I thought it was a joke. The room was so tiny, it did not even have room for a chair. You could barely walk past the bed to get to the bathroom.
Most amazingly, the bed was not queen-size, as advertised on their official website, but a double. In fact, all the rooms I saw had only double - not queen size - beds. I was surprised that none of the reviews mentioned the discrepancy. I can't remember the last time I stayed in a room for 2 that had only a single double size bed. It was extremely uncomfortable and too small for two people to sleep in.
Regarding hospitality, the night shift guy was nice and the old lady was helpful and friendly, but the Polish girl, who happened to be one of our earlier reception experiences, was unpleasant and rude. When we asked her about the possibility of switching rooms, she continued to look at her computer and did not even look up when she spoke to us. Was she too busy playing solitaire to deal with clients. While I dealt with her, three people came in to check out. There was no "thanks" or "goodbye" from her when these clients left. She barely addressed any one of them. Her tone was curt and abrupt. I couldn't believe that was the hospitality of a bed and breakfast inn.
I would never go back again. There are many other better b&b's in the Keys. Avoid this one for sure.
