10/10 Exceptional

Pleasantly surprised
We were in #31, with 2 queen beds. Room was quite large with kitchen area of fridge, microwave, small sink and eating bar with 4 barstools. Nice touches like a Mr. Coffee machine with real coffee and a roll of paper towels were much appreciated. Air con was efficient but noisy as all window units are. Wi-Fi good. Out tv didn’t work, we reported it and it was fixed upon our return. Staff good and responsive. Breakfast was all packaged food, as expected but there was plenty of it and the coffee was good. Nothing in Key West is inexpensive but this hotel was on the lower price end for location and I was pleasantly surprised. Friends had a king room at same hotel, not nearly as large. Get the 2 queens. Liquor store on premises did not price gouge.

Room was clean and quiet. The only issue was a spot lot outside the window. Had to use towels to cover window. Light was coming thru blinds while trying to sleep. Staff was very nice to deal with.
