We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. The house was perfect for a weekend getaway. Had exactly what we needed, was clean, comfortable, and perfect location. Very safe and wonderful host. We did rent bikes through a local company and biked the entire weekend. We also walked to many places as well. Would definitely stay at this exact place again for another Key West weekend.

We had an awesome stay! The home has such charm and character; loved sitting on the front porch, people watching. We found on street parking close by and didn’t move car for our 3 days stay because we walked or biked everywhere. It is a quick mile walk to Duval street and enjoyed taking different routes to see the sights. It was easy to communicate with host, received all info timely, would stay again next time in Key West!

House was small and adequate for the two of us. I thought the bed mattress was too soft and could be replaced. I could have used a dish pan. Water was hot and lights really good in bathroom. Pillows were too hard for me, would have liked option for soft pillow. The place was quite clean.

Thank you for your review and your stay it was appreciated Since your review, I have purchased some softer pillows. So now we have soft pillows and hard pillows. Cause everybody likes pillows different.Regarding the mattress. It's really hard for me to get the right mattress for everyone. Because some people like it soft and some people like it firm so I tried to purchase one in between.

The host was very nice. Loved the big walk-in shower and front porch. A great place to get away from the hustle. In the neighborhood. The planes coming from above were loud, but didn’t bother our sleep with window A/C. Old and dated, but clean. We had to walk a while and are older so we stopped along the way.

About the host

Hosted by Marilyn Henley

Host profile image
Marilyn has owned the home since 1981 and loves to welcome visitors from near and far to CeKey West.

Why they chose this property

If you want to get the feel of what it's like to live in Key West and like to stay in a homey environment complete with kitchen, living area and either deck or front porch. This is a good match for you. It will accommodate 4 people but I think it works best for 2 adults simply because it is about 500 square feet.

What makes this property unique

Central location with front porch.
