Hidin in Key West

This sis a nice property close to the action on Duval but a quite secluded space. Worked great for our group of five adults. We will look the next time in Keys West

Don't Waste Your Money!

This property needs major renovations and a deep cleaning! The deck around the pool is a hazard and someone is going to get hurt. There were so many things broken, or not working, the list would be too long to mention here. The management company was very accommodating, but the issues are out of their hands until the owners step up to the plate and fix their property. It is very sad that it has been ignored so long. We used to love staying here because it's a great location, but will find someplace else to stay the next time we are in Key West!

Property Needs Improvement, Great Location

We enjoyed our stay, however there were quite a number of things that required improvement. We were surprised because we paid a lot to stay for a week, and it really wasn’t up to par. That said, the location and heated pool were great for our family. I have listed some of the shortfalls below. Our biggest issue was that the sliding doors to the pool DO NOT LOCK. The property management company confirmed prior to our booking that the doors from the main house lock, but they most definitely do not. This was a major safety dilemma as we have young kids who cannot swim. The dryer was broken and the property management company did not respond when contacted to let them know. This was a deal breaker as we packed lightly assuming we’d have the ability to do laundry. The bath and pool towels will not air dry due to the humidity. The bedrooms were cold, especially the guest house, and not a single blanket to be found. We’d recommend putting blankets/comforters on the beds and couches. There are a number of fans, outlets and lights that do not function. There is no dishwasher, no kitchen towels for drying the dishes you’re hand washing, and the oven is not functional. In terms of cleanliness, the rugs and runners are stained and dirty, needs replacing. There was dog hair on the couch. Hole in the wood flooring of the hallway. Pool deck could use re-staining. Proximity to Duval St was great, heated pool was awesome. Will look to stay elsewhere for our next Key West trip.

Nice

Property is nice. It is two separate buildings with one bedroom in each. Had a few issues when we first got in, but the were taken care of when we called. The sliding doors do not lock and the wet deck was slippery, but it is roomy and the location is great.

Great location within walking distance of everything. The property was clean but needs some love. There was a fairly large hole in the wood floor in the dining room that could potentially hurt someone. The deck around the pool is in dire need of repair. Lots of warped boards and rough wood that made it difficult to walk with bare feet. The gutter system over the deck and pool needs cleaned and repaired. It leaks into the pool and causes mossy slick spots on the deck. There's a large hole in the deck by the outdoor shower. The kitchen needs to be better stocked. Only a few pans and no dish towels or washcloths. The oven didn't work. The lighting in the front entryway needs to be better. It's very hard to see at night. Overall, we were happy with our stay but this place needs some major upkeep done on it.
