Walking distance (15 min) from beaches, night live and restaurants... I spent two nights at the grand, and both nights walked back and forward without any issue. Place was clean and the room spacious, Grand may need to consider to update the mattress in the room. In front of the building are only 6 parking spot available but there’s free parking available in the surrounding area. There’s like a little terrace with sitting and tables, you could dinne and chill before going back to the room. Breakfast is serve between 8:30 and 10, if yours is a working trip like mine you won’t get the opportunity to try it. The staff is friendly and courteous, they are always at the property until 6pm… any suggestions, doubts, they will be able to help you. Taking into consideration how ridiculous high price is the cost of sleeping at the keys, I think that the Grand is a fair option… is also the lowest “resort fee” that you wil be charge per night. If I need to go down to the keys again, I would repeat my stay at the Grand.

Nightmare at Grand Guest

The place appeared very nice but had bed bugs. Yes bed bugs. We saw small brown bugs crawling on the sheets after we got into bed. After close examination we saw them on the boxspring and curtains. The bed was loaded no way the cleaning staff didnt see the bugs. Phoned the night clerk and was told they were out of rooms. When asked if they would find us a room at 2am they said no. Our stay was ruined we packed our travel bags in plastic garbage bags so we could later scan for bugs and to keep strays from investing our car. Instead of immediately refunding our fees hotels.com informed us that it was up to the Grand Guest to release the funds. Luckily they did a day later. Once packed we left Key West for the mainland.

We really enjoyed our 2 night stay at the Grand Guest Guesthouse . There was plenty of parking either in front of the house, or down the street. Our room located on the side of the house was clean, had a hair dryer, iron, TV, Mini fridge, shampoo, conditioner, & body lotion. All perfect for our 2 night getaway. A light Breakfast in the morning was good to start the day, as well as 24 hr coffee. We rented bikes for a small charge, and that was so convenient to ride to all the local sites. We also walked to Duval from the guesthouse. Always felt safe. Jonathan the GM was awesome. Jonathan was very helpful in guiding us on where to go and very knowledgeable of Key West. We really recommend the Grand Guesthouse! We will be back!
