A very different, unique and charming place to stay. Funky decor, but clean and very comfortable. We did miss having a microwave and coffee maker and the office is only open during working hours. Property is walled, very charming outdoor setting with shade, trees, landscaping, plenty of seating and tables. Traffic noise during rush hours, but quiet at night. Surprised to see a small pool. Woken up by a rooster roosting near our second floor window. Loved it.

Everything was great far as facilities other than hot tub being cold. Room was great. Staff were late to bring breakfast, just inconvenient when trying to get the most out of your trip! Other than that the authors is a quiet, neat place.

Me and my husband absolutely loved this place. The room we had was really nice and comfortable. Not only that, it wasn't a far walk to go shopping and check out restaurants in the area.

We booked for the location, which was walkable to the old-town area of Key West. The room/suite itself was pretty dated and the shower was tiny, but everything worked. The "pool" was very small and seemed to actually be a hot tub. The complimentary breakfast was helpful, and the desk staff was nice.

Very nice guest house tucked in a quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed walking to everywhere we wanted to go. Our room was very small but it was fine for 2 nights. Bed was comfortable and breakfast was a nice bonus.
