Likely the least expensive hotel on Lido Key, so expectations need to be adjusted accordingly. That said, my room was clean, the bed comfortable, and staff very helpful. Good value all things considered.

Disappointed
Older property, small room. Our night was filled with killing mosquitoes in the room. Our only day this week off after a company function AND 7AM IN THE MORNING, CONSTRUCTION NEXT DOOR, hammering, power saws, etc. No ability to sleep in. I know the owner cant control, it, but with thin non insulated windows, no weather stripping on the door, it was loud . The bed was comfortable. For the price was disappointed.

Needs help
The place needs cleaned better. The bathtub has mold in the corners the tub mat is filthy with hair the windows and shades are so dirty that you can’t see out of them. The intake vent grill is filled with dirt. I think with a little work the place could be nice. Probably won’t be back

This hotel is a bit of Old Florida tucked into a neighborhood that is full-on bougie. The decor and furniture feel like they are straight out of the 1960s. We loved that part of it. The flip side is dealing with locks, faucets and windows that can be fussy, as well as televisions that have seen better days. But who comes to Lido Key to watch TV? The staff is friendly and helpful and the place is clean. The location can't be beat.
