This was our second time here, and am glad that nothing has changed! Rooms are large and clean, staff is extremely friendly. Pool is nice, we just park here and walk everywhere - being one block off Duval is perfect. 1/2 block down from here is Anna's market and the breakfast there is a habit. Good food on the porch with cuban coffee is the only way for us to start a day. This place is considered our KW home.

I was planning an epic adventure to the Keys by Harley and I needed an affordable place to stay once I got there. The blue marlin fit the bill to a tee. I pulled in late in the afternoon and promptly was greeted by the desk clerk as I dismounted my bike in front of the door. I talked with him a while as I checked in and he told me some local events I should check out and also told me I could park my bike in a spot where I could see it from my room. The room was very clean and large. It had two queen beds, double sink wet bar and a microwave fridge combo. They even thought to give a pack of microwave popcorn. It only cost them .50 cents to do this but I have been in very expensive hotels that didn't give me diddly! The morning breakfast was a well stocked counter of donuts, danishes, fruit, coffee, and juice. The even let me into the feast a little early since they already had it set up. This hotel is only about a block from the Southernost point marker. It is a good walk to get to mallory pier but its a walk full of sites to see and if your in a hurry in key west then your in the wrong place anyway!

This is a great place, very friendy, great pool, great location. It is a MOTEL!!! You cannot beat the price. Would stay there again, room was clean.

The rooms have been upgraded, I have stayed there 3+ times over the last 3-4 years. This past New Year, we received a not so pleasant New Years welcome when we were refused late check out of any sort, and one of my friends rooms was barged in on and told the police had been called...aprox. :30 after they were to have been out (check out 11am). Now I realize that they were to have been out at check out time, but I don't think a one hour late check out is to much to ask, especially after you dropped over $300 bucks a night on a room for three nights... bottomline, next time I am down in KW for the New Year, I will stay else where. Also they tried to evict a couple girls for going in the pool after midnight, FYI.
