We booked this hotel for 1 night while at the Keys to avoid driving back to Miami after boating all day. The price and location were great. We loved the convenience of the 2nd bedroom kitchen area was nice and spacious. The outside area is pleasant and nice water view. My only complaint was the bathroom. Terrible shower, not very clean, bad shower, very outdated and uncomfortable. The bathroom needs remodeling like yesterday. Other than that I would recommend this place for a short stay, not long.

Loved the Old Florida feel, the 50s style styling that has been kept in great condition and updated. Not a lot of rooms in the Hotel so it was quiet with lots of room at the pool. Staff was very helpful\friendly and we really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful view and hotel. Only thing that needed some attention were the bicycles that were provided in the resort fee. If your going to add a mandatory fee bicycles (kayaks, paddleboards) then be sure they are maintained. All the bicycle tires were low, seats would not adjust and most of the bolts that held things like handlebars were loose. Actually not safe.

There was a $75 charge for “resort” facilities,i.e., kayak and bicycle use, which I was told was non waivable, which as senior citizens we did not have any use for. Had it been a non refundable reservation we would have gone someplace else. Live and learn.
