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.

Efficient staff. Clean rooms, albeit very small for a 2-person (but it’s a hostel, so you shouldn’t expect spacious). Bike rental onsite. You’ll need to request housekeeping but they do a great job of cleaning the room. At the time of our visit the pool was excavated (presumably to build a new one) but this did not affect us. Overall a good value for what is generally a pricey market for accommodations.

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.

The property was clean and updated with a king size bed. The bathrooms were nicely updated with tile but there was no hot water. The property was well lit but outdated on the exterior. The locations was nice, just a few blocks from Duvall St.

You get what you pay for. This was a hostel with shared bathroom etc. It has been 50 years since I stayed in a hostel and wanted to revisit my youth. There was only a thin sheet no blanket but I still managed to get reasonable sleep. Easy walking distance to all the sites and restaurants etc. Can recommend if you are traveling on a budget.

There is no one at the front desk. An access key will be sent to you by email in advance, and you can use it to open the entrance and room doors. The rooms are clean and there is a Whole Foods Sale just a 5 minute walk away.
