This is a very good value at a GREAT LOCATION Close to beach and All! REASONABLE RATES. W.FULL KITCHEN AND PATIO Please read reviews. People have left and judge for yourself.. Key West is old and historic when The homes were built-in this area. Parking was always on the sides of the street and is FREE. A great way to see the island however, is by bicycle plus there are so many different kinds of vehicles you can rent it is amazing.

Why they chose this property
If you want to know what it feels like to really live in Key West and you like the benefits and homey feel of having your own kitchen, living area and either deck or porch this is a good fit for you. Plus my location is grand. I love being literally so close to everything and the beach.
