Location was great. Right on top of all the action. So much to do. Parking takes a minute but worth cruising around to find affordable street parking. Would stay again.

This property was pretty great and the location was amazing! It is right in the middle of everything and a short walk to the most popular bars/restaurants. The CVS directly across the street was super helpful with drinks and snacks and anything we forgot to bring!

Location is great, we stayed night of July 4th. Close to everything. The interior is just as described online, clean and roomy. Only thing I would suggest to the rental agency is to recover/cover balcony cushions, they are really stained but overall, decent rental property.

We appreciate your feedback about the balcony cushions and will pass it along to the rental agency for consideration. We're happy to hear you had a good stay overall and hope to welcome you back in the future! Daniella, Brightwild
Location was great , only down fall was only one bathroom , but we knew that when
We booked . Lots of pigeons in stair way and if you had door to balcony open they would try to get in apartment. Brightwild was very responsive to messages and helpful. Apartment was in the perfect location to walk to everything in Key West .

Great for sleeping 3-6, not more than that. We came with a group of 10 and needed to use the pull out sofas, which were broken. We ended up taking the mattress out and sleeping on the floor, but even then the mattress was only a few inches thick. Being on Duval street, it was a populated area with partying outside until about 2 or 3am. Being a historic building, the living room area was noisy until the streets cleared. We knew this would be the case, but keep this in mind when booking.
Great little historic house right on Duval street.
Con: the only 2 small complaints we had were that the front door sticks pretty hard and the thin windows let significant noise into the loft with street sweepers and garbage truck coming by. These things are expected though in an old house in a prime location though
Pros: very clean, very comfortable beds and fluffy pillows. Had a question for the owner who responded and helped right away. Perfect location with a balcony overlooking the center of Duval street.
I would absolutely recommend.

My family and I had a wonderful time at this property. The property manager was quick to answer all my questions and very kind and responsive. It’s situated on Duval Street, which can be noisy, because it is THE party street in Key West and that’s what we were there for. We celebrated my niece’s 40th birthday and had a wonderful time. There were nine of us total and we were all very comfortable. The only drawback is that there is only one bathroom, and with that many people it gets a little tight. But for a short term stay, it was great! The building is old, like so many others in the area, so don’t expect a luxury apartment. It’s clean and bright and has everything that you need for a short term stay. I would definitely recommend this property for groups of four or more people. It’s within walking distance to everything that tourists want to do in Key West. We had a great time!

This property looks no where near the photos provided on this site. It is worn down, beat up and dirty. For over a thousand dollars a night, in off season, I’d expect more than just a great location. This is clearly a money making machine and the owner has no interest in keeping up with it. Hell, we even had a maintenance worker just walk right in with no communication from anyone. He’s lucky my son didn’t lay him out when he came around the corner. And he was lucky I was asleep.
Not much to say. Place was clean, communication was good and the location on duval is unmatched.

This was an amazing place to stay at, I would recommend this unit to anyone. A lot bigger than you'd think it would be. And the best location! Only down side is the parking situation. But if you Uber there it'd be perfect. Everything is within walking distance

Just an overnight stay but had a great time! Location was great-we walked to everything. Place was just as advertised and loved the balcony overlooking Duvall. Hair dryers provided didn’t work but purchased one at CVS across street and left it there. Spoke to mgmt and emailed them the receipt and they issued me refund for it in less than 15 min! Also let us get in a little early to drop off our backpacks. Much appreciated! Great service!
