Pros:

Che dire, da fuori sembra il classico motel con le auto parcheggiate di fronte alla porta d'ingresso ma una volta entrato scopri una camera finemente arredata, un bel giardino privato che ti porta direttamente alla piscina e all'imbarcadero. Poi avere il locale a fianco con free drink e possibilità di trascorrere una piacevole serata senza dover prender l'auto non ha prezzo.

Un hôtel avec du charme
Pros:

Malgré que l’hôtel soit au bord de la route, l’hôtel est charmant. Les lits sont confortables. L’espace terasse devant la chambre est très agréable et la piscine et le bar sont top. On a aussi bien aimé la vue de la terrasse du bar. On n’a pas été embêté par le bruit.

Cons:

On aurait aimé des couverts dans la chambre pour prendre le petit déjeuner ainsi qu’un grille pain.

Ocean view
Pros:

Personale accogliente e gentile. Facile da trovare. Sul retro accesso alla piscina e a un molo sul mare con vista sul tramonto. Ristorante annesso molto comodo e con ottimo menù.

Cons:

Bagno un po’ trascurato con telo doccia con un po’ di muffa.

Pros:

Staff was very nice, room was available for early check-in. The location and set up was so much better than I expected. The room was larger and nicer than I had in any of the other locations I've stayed at in the past. The outdoor patio was also a nice place to just put your feet up and chill.

Perfect for one night on your way to Key West.
Pros:

For us, it was a return to the Keys, where we lived for many years. The motel is located on US1 and right next to the restaurant; it's not a luxury motel, but it's perfect for an overnight stay. You can park right in front of your room. The rooms are a good size and have a sliding door at the back that opens onto a private deck with direct access to the pool. We enjoyed our small private patio while sipping our complimentary welcome drink and waiting to use the pool, which was a bit noisy on that Saturday afternoon. The pool area is pleasant with lounge chairs, tables, and umbrellas. The pool itself is a good size and heated. I really enjoyed our outdoor shower after swimming. The room was clean and had everything we needed for the night, including a refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker. Located on the side of the road, the noise from the cars is largely blocked by the door and window. I really thought the room would be noisier. There is some road noise, but not enough to bother us.
As it is often the case in the Keys, locals come directly by sea to enjoy the restaurant. The room does not have a direct sea view, but on the side of the motel there is a small path that leads to a dock and directly to the sea.

Cons:

I hated the smell in the room. The cleaning lady used an air freshener, and it bothered me. We had to leave the doors opened to air out of the room.
