Pier House Resort & Spa
Location, location, location! We were within an easy walk to Mallory Square, The Truman White House, Hemmingway’s home, the boat tours, the trolley and many restaurants and CVS. The Resort was clean, well landscaped, comfortable and responsive to our requests.

NYAH Key West - Adults Only
Room was in poor condition for the price paid. Many items needed maintenance attention from peeling paint to rusty metal bed frames and light fixtures, sloppy drywall repairs. I have been in hostels for $40 that were much nicer
