This was such a fantastic unit. It was very clean and centrally located to everything in Old Town. There are LOTS of stairs, so that is something to consider for anyone with limited mobility. The community is gated and feels very safe, even at night.

Thank you for the wonderful review! The stairs up to the 2 separate bedrooms can be a lot for some but are the perfect fit to have 2 very private bedrooms for couples.
I can't say enough about this place. It was well appointed, clean and comfy. The location was perfect. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and in the living room. Absolutely would recommend.

Staying at this property for a week for the first time in Key west was phenomenal. The property was clean and well maintained on the inside within each room , as well as the incredible cleanliness and upkeep of the streets and buildings around. The location was perfect for our stay here, it was within walking and biking distance to all attractions and activities during our time. I would highly recommend these condos and cannot wait to book for our next trip.

Reviewer Comments:
First the negative: We arrived after sunset and had a hard time locating the lockbox for the Keys to the unit. I had to use the flashlight on my phone to see where I was and locate the lockbox because the area was so dark. We were expecting a pullout bed or fold away bed for our 5th person. In my opinion the couch itself wouldn't qualify as a bed. There was not much if any cupboard space to place our grocery items we bought. I am not sure how thoroughly this place was inspected prior to arrival for cleanliness. We found someone's used Facemask in the seat couching of the couch when we were trying to figure out if it was a pullout bed The Positive: This was our 1st experience in Key West. It was decorated beautifully. We loved the location of the unit. We rented bikes for the week and used them to travel everywhere we went. Finding access to the Truman Annex Park was a great surprise and spent a couple nights there watching the sunset and flying our Drone. It was only a couple minute bike ride to Mallory Square and Duval Street. I would defiantly stay at this location again if and when we return to Key West

We were very pleased with the unit. Very clean. It was perfect for our stay. The A/C in the 3rd floor bedroom wasn't the best. It was working good in the bathroom but the bedroom wasn't getting cooled as well. Location was perfect. Close to everything we wanted to do.

We booked our vacation at Aah Paradise. One day 2, we were told there was a major water leak at our property. Compass Realty did a nice job finding us another spot (not very far away). Although it was a bit of a hassle to move, Compass Realty made the process as easy as possible. We would book with them again.

The location was ideal; quiet and peaceful. The unit was clean however the furniture and rugs were dated. The bed in the master was uncomfortable (lumpy), and the bedding could use and upgrade and an update. We would stay in Truman annex again but would look at a different unit.
