A guest from The Villages, Fl

Gardenia cottage, key west

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Gardenia cottage was very nice. Great location off of Duval st. About 2 blocks, less than 5 minute walk. Steps from a large pool with lounge chairs. This cottage sleeps 4,it is small but updated. Some cons: the main bedroom is tiny. The night stands are very small and wobbly , a nightmare for a drink or a CPAP machine. The shower has no place but the floor for soap/shampoo and washcloth. It would be a cheap and simple fix if someone would put in the effort. Overall, it’s a great little place with an awesome location! I would recommend especially if they put shelving in the bathroom and bedroom.
