Whilst location was good, and parking was very easy. Very disappointed with our stay, stayed in a room by the pool with guests using it even at midnight/1AM both nights. One guest even pressed the emergency button making a huge noise and waking up multiple rooms. Additionally, no proper blinds on the doors meaning light came in and others could see into your room. Room was nice and clean but unfortunately wouldn’t stay again.

Breakfast was not great. Very limited menu and just a few things. The seating area was not comfy either. The front desk staff were friendly.

Great place. Friendly people. Pool could be warmer. Was very cold.

4.0 / 10.0

The girl in reception was very nice and helpful. The room was clean and the bed was nice. I have back problem so for my own personal preference I would wish the bed was more hard/solid, so I was little afraid I would get problem, but all went fine so I was more then happy about my stay. For me it was in my price budget and the main thing for me is that room and bathroom is clean/fresh and it was

All staff incredibly pleasant - they do an amazing job maintaining plants on grounds and in room, loved seeing healthy, live plants in the room. Perfect selection for breakfast (thank you for having Philadelphia cream cheese!!) , and while beds creaked with every move the blankets and sheets were so soft and comfortable , everything was clean, pool was adorable, and we were lucky to make friends with other guests- fantastic trip. We did the dinner sunset cruise - highly recommend. And you can never go wrong with duval and Malory square!

5.0 / 10.0

Breakfast was great , just on the rooms they could a bit make some changes. For example would be great if on the bathroom door to have some hooks where you can hang up your towels or your clothes . Not place everything on top of the toilet lid. Otherwise we liked our stay. And would definitely stay again in the near future.

8.0 / 10.0

We stayed in the Hellmann. Super comfortable bed and pillows. Very quiet and pleasant stay. However, extremely small bathroom with no shelves on wall to put stuff, so difficult to get ready for the day in there. A mirror in the room would maybe help. Otherwise we enjoyed the peace and quiet and the uniqueness of the property and would definitely stay again!

Property was nice and quiet. Im good walking distance to most attractions which for us was great to not have to drive much. Cute and quaint. Recommend anyone going to the keys to stay at Author's guest house.

10.0 / 10.0

Loved staying here. The owner greeted us and was super friendly and helpful. The cleaning staff always did a great job. The area is a little further from the Main Street in Key West, but that makes it more quiet and allowed us to relax.

5.0 / 10.0

The property is nice, clean, and comfortable. Three of us stayed in the Williams cabin. One guest used the fold out couch and said it was comfortable enough. The bathroom is off the bedroom so the extra person had to enter the bedroom to access it. The kitchen had basic utensils, etc. The continental breakfast offered enough selections to make all of us happy. It was a nice place for the price.
