I had a wonderful stay at the Grand Guesthouse. The rooms were smallish but very clean and comfortable. The air conditioner made a loud thumping noise, which was a bit disturbing during the night, but overall, the room was cozy. The warm temperature on the first night was a slight inconvenience.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were a little bit small for all the luggage but comfortable and clean, although smaller than what I expected compared to other cities like London or NYC. The service was top-notch; the staff was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and professional, going above and beyond to make my stay super accommodating. The location was perfect, offering a nice place to relax with attention to little details like glass plates and real silverware for breakfast. The dining experience was average, nothing special with pre-packaged muffins, but they did offer a decent selection of breakfast items. The facilities were good, no major complaints.

The hotel is a cozy gem in a quiet residential neighborhood, offering immaculate and very comfortable rooms with a private patio ideal for breakfast. The staff goes above and beyond to provide excellent service, making the stay truly enjoyable. The location is convenient, close to the heart of Key West yet peaceful. However, the breakfast service could use a little improvement, although the fresh pancakes are a highlight.
