"Nice B&B, but the shower should be vented to help rid the Garden room of the damp smell."

7.0

Lovely little garden for breakfast or just hanging out. Nice breakfasts offered in the morning. Fun decor often keeping with the mermaid theme. Walkable to other Key West destinations.

We stayed in the Garden Room, which was small, but comfortable with a double shower. But it smelled of mildew and dampness, which I didn’t like.
