Overall for a property built in the late 1800’s, the property itself was in great shape. The breakfast was good and hot - better than expected. My big complaint was about the internet and TV. The internet was slow - when it worked at all. This was especially annoying because they didn’t have any mainstream television - only streaming. The internet was constantly buffering and was truly unwatchable. I would also add that the room was so light due to a spotlight right outside our unit. The blinds were inadequate to block the light. The curtain that covered the glass in the door didn’t cover the glass well - so not only was there too much light but also a lack of privacy.

Some of the hardest working staff I've ever seen. Beautiful shower, more than decent breakfast for a facility of this size. Nice outdoor seating. Love the White Street location. Limited onsite free parking but I had no issue with free street parking this part of Key West. Only negative was no microwave when I wanted to reheat restaurant food I couldn't finish. Not a big deal for me.

This was a great place to stay for Fantasy Fest. It was close walks to everything we wanted. The Ashe Cottage was perfect! The room was big, the bathrooms were new, and we had our own private deck. !00% recommend. We will be back.

The property is quaint and cute. Everything was well kept and clean the staff clean your room virtually as soon as you hang out please clean my room sign on your door. The “continental breakfast “is exactly that it’s just your typical continental breakfast at any hotel. Was hoping for maybe something a little more fresh and maybe something more local but it did the job. It’s walking distance to Duvall and all of the food fun and shops. But it’s far enough away that at night it’s quiet, peaceful, and private. Will definitely stay again had an amazing week!

I was very nicely greeted and dealt easily with the staff - the hotel is eclectic like Key West is - the hallways are open and the rooms irregularly spaced - quirky like the whole island! The area very walkable but for most restaurants you would want to take transportation. My room very comfy and spotless - the place seemed very new - quite AC and a TV with a zillion channels. The breakfast somewhat limited but the coffee super. Would stay agin in a heatbeat.

Clean place. I was only there for 1 day, so i did not need a lot and did not use a lot on property. I should have never looked at the breakfast, it was overly disappointing and soured my entire stay experience. I did have a strange experience, where I the guest was treated as secondary there. As i was trying to quickly checkout in the office, I was motioned with a finger to wait by a lady standing behind the desk, and I had to listen to her train a front desk representative for about a minute before I was given proper attention.Very nice staff, but not proactive. If the staff feels like they need to do something to recover from a mistake, asking the guest if they would like a discount, makes the situation uncomfortable and shows that you really weren't intending to offer a discount or you would have already done it.

What a beautiful place to stay in Key West. The staff was so friendly and helpful no matter what we asked. Extremely clean room and quiet. Walkable to shops,dining and such. From a woman's point of view they need shelves in the shower and some more on the walls. We would definitely stay again
