Guest Reviews
- Nichole (7/5): Average - Location. Large bathroom. Not completely renovated and for what you get it’s costly. Check out time is prompt at 11AM. Pool is under construction.
- DARIO DARKO (8/5): - Letto grande e comodo, pulizia, doccia grande. La nostra stanza era un po' piccola
- Kathy (10/5): - Perfect location - we could walk to everything we wanted to see.
- Osniel (10/5): -

- Charles (10/5): Great place, great value! Will stay there again. - I liked everything about this motel. The staff was excellent. The room was very nice and very clean. Over all it was a very pleasant experience. This was nothing a didn’t like.
- Małgorzata (7/5): Obiekt czysty,łazienka jak nowa,lokalizacja super.Jedyny minus to drzwi wejściowe z ogromną szparą i wszystko słychać w - Czystość,lokalizacja Drzwi wejściowe
- Viacheslav (9/5): - Spent a night before traveling to Dry Tortugas National Park. Renowed rooms were perfect for it. The inner territory is still under repair/development.
- Mike (7/5): -
- Priscilla (10/5): -
- Jolanta (7/5): It was good for 1 night stay. - Big comfortable beds, clean room. Renovations going on.
- Tina (10/5): -
- DeFeis (6/5): It was an ok place but for what I paid i expected better. - The room was completely renovated The grounds were being renovated, which i was unaware of, the pool was not even close to finished, the windows are not sound proof so every single thing was heard through them, especially traffic sounds.
- Catia.e (10/5): - Localização excelente. Camas e travesseiros confortáveis. Banheiro ótimo. Recomendo. Falou cortina black-out nas janelas. Como havia muita luz na área externa, senti falta de uma boa vedação da luz no quarto.
- tino (1/5): -
- elena (8/5): -
- Seda (4/5): - Odanin ici temizdi Wifi calismiyordu ve merkeze cok uzakti
- Kalanit (9/5): - המקום תחת שיפוצים - בקרוב יהיה בריכה וזה בטח יהיה שדרוג. קיבלנו הודעה על השיפוץ מראש והחלטנו לא לשנות את ההזמנה ושמחים שככה עשינו. לנו השיפוצים לא הפריעו. המקום ממש מתוק והתאים מאוד למשפחה שלנו (5 נפשות) והמיקום מעולה ליציאה לנקודה הכי דררומית ולרחובות המעניינים בקיי ווסט.
- Vaunda (9/5): Manager was great and room was clean. - Room was clean and had a king bed. It was fine for what we needed.
- Diane (10/5): -
- William (8/5): In summary, I would stay at the Seashell again BUT I would request a room on the other side of the building or possibly - Property was fine for what I needed and the location. Room was clean and had everything needed for my visit to KW. The biggest complaint that I had and the only thing that displeased me was the noise. I was in room #1, next to the office and there were people were and making noise well past 11:00pm. I finally stopped until 3:00am when it started again and was loud enough to wake me from a sound sleep.
- Antonio (4/5): Construction - Free parking, the room was recently upgraded to modern look The new shower drain was backing up, the outside is under construction and the price didn’t reflect that
- Sean (9/5): - Good location for Duval Street and southern most point. And dedicated parking . Apartment had all we needed and plenty of storage ,etc A/C unit was very noisy, but did the job
- Parrent (9/5): - Clean a nice room. Close to southern most point. Only disappointment was pool was being renovated during the stay so wasn’t able to enjoy it.
- Patrick (10/5): -
- Lisa (7/5): -
- Landry (10/5): - Service impeccable Piscine en construction depuis 2 ans
- Joshua (7/5): -
- Michele (10/5): The room was new and spotless super comfortable - Location was great! Under. Construction
- Mas (10/5): -
- Dąbrowski (10/5): -
- Raul (7/5): - Good location. Renovated room, it was like brand new The place is undergoing renovation and the exterior has nothing to do with the pics shown before booking.

- Joséphine (7/5): -
- Kevin (9/5): Went for the weather and it deleivered with a comfortable room! - We had a generous room recently remodeled. Very nice bathroom. Room had mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker, hair dryer, some hangers in closet. No complaints with the room. A nice addition in rooms would be a chair and table. The center court, which our room opened to, was under construction. Did not bother us because we were out walking and exploring all day. The staff was excelllent!! Senior husband and wife for one week stay. I would like to return someday to see improvements all in place. Keep in mind this is an older structure but seemed upgraded as much as possible. The doors to the rooms were installed in a strange way but likely building code in the Keys. We felt very safe being senior citizens, LOL. The 24hr front desk was very nice, handy and happy to help with any questions we had, a bonus for any traveler.
- Margot (8/5): -
- Coby (7/5): - Location and was able to get an early check in The bright lights outside of the room...made it tough to sleep. No matter the time, it was day light in the room.
- Stepan (9/5): -
- Klaus (7/5): It was very nice and we were able to see everything within walking distance. - The location and space in the apartment. An extra blanket. Some cutlery and plates etc. in the kitchen.
- Sandrine (7/5): -
- Alberto (9/5): My stay was splendid. - I liked how clean it was the bed was comfortable and ac worked perfect and it was quiet. There wasn’t anything that I didn’t like
- Kalvin (10/5): -
- Nicolas (8/5): Conociendo Key West con amigos - La habitación es exactamente la de las fotos. Simple pero comoda. Cuenta con aire ac, ventilador, televisor, una heladera tipo mini bar y microondas. El baño estaba muy bien. Lamentablemente la piscina estaba en construcción y resulta poco agradable estar en un lugar en obra.
- Mariš (9/5): - Lokalita bola bokom od hlučných barov, zároveň naozaj blízko atrakcií na KeyWest. Milý Motel, prerábku sme takmer nepočuli, bývali sme už v novej prerobenej izbe. Super 24 hodinová recepcia nám vynikajúco pomohla so všetkým čo sme potrebovali. Milá malá kuchynka so skvelou kávou avšak úplne bez vybavenia.
- Kenneth (9/5): -
- Trevizani (3/5): - Location and bed. Staff, structure. Was expensive for what provide. They were in construction..outside is horrible. Inside acceptable
- Tobias (8/5): - This is is actually amazing because you get to go to the islander resort (15 minute) drive and use all their fancy resort amenities whilst paying a reasonable price sleeping at the regular inn! no hair dryer, I called front desk at 7pm and they didn't pick up, called all unavailable numbers and all went to voicemail. reception closed at 7pm.
- Bill (1/5): Very disappointing and WAY overpriced!! - Okay location. Shower was good. No parking, no ice machine, no seating in the room. Television barely worked. Bright lights on all night outside with no way to block out in the room. Very dirty outside. Misleading listing and WAY, WAY overpriced!! Very disappointing stay.
- TIMOTHY (8/5): -
- Guest (7/5): - Close to Higgs beach and great for walking Duval street. Walls are paper thin, you hear everything! The room was decent and the staff was friendly, but every thing is low end. Probably wouldn't stay here again.
- Matthieu (6/5): Well located motel - Great location, in dowtown. Free parking is super useful . Clean room. The fire alarm of the entire motel start ringing in the middle of the night! The night manager just ended manually deactivating it in each room! No words of excuse for a ruined night
- Roger (9/5): -
- John (7/5): -
- link (7/5): -
- Tsutomu (8/5): -
- Nowasielski (10/5): -
- Kristy (10/5): Would return. great stay and Free parking - Clean, quiet and within close proximity of Duval. Walked everywhere. Felt very safe. Friendly accommodating staff. Nothing comes to mind
- William (10/5): -
- Mahesh (7/5): Nice location, but way overpriced - The location is very close to Duval Street, just 5 min walk. Stores, cafe, restaurants and beach are all very close within a few minutes of walking distance. The rooms are updated with comfortable beds. The property exteriors and outside looks like a beaten down motel. There are constructions going on now. There are no usable windows, exhaust fans in the rooms and as a result stale smell inside the rooms. The rooms are not sound proof and next door guest talking aloud during night can interrupt sleep. It’s a big nuisance and we struggled with our sleep interruptions. There is big gap between images shown on the website and reality. Overall it’s highly overpriced for the value and quality of stay.
- Thomas Swaner (8/5): - Location Construction
- Andrew (9/5): -
- Diletta (9/5): -
- Coleman (10/5): -
- Brigitte (7/5): Zimmer und Lage super - Gute Lage, nicht weit zu den Hotspots. Das Zimmer war neu, sauber und geräumig. Kaltes Wasser beim Duschen, das war ca. 20 Uhr. Für den Preis sollte man schon warm duschen können!
- Mauro (8/5): Localização é perfeita e o quarto ok. - Ok para a localização É um prédio antigo
- Godwin (9/5): Amazing location! - The location is GREAT!! The room was clean and recently updated. The doors are thin - can hear anything outside.
- Jorge (9/5): -
- Ilenia Santillo (5/5): Peccato per l’acqua calda - Camere nuove Doccia fredda: acqua calda non disponibile e receptionist non risolutivo
- Julia (7/5): - what I expected. When they are finished with remodel it will be great.
- Miklósváry (7/5): A szállás tükrözi Keywest hangulatát. - Kiváló helyen van, a helyiségek klímával ellátottak amivel fűteni is tudtunk a hidegebb időben. A falak vékonyak és a hangszigetelés gyenge, a fürdőszobai villany időnként felkapcsol ami éjszaka alváskor meglehetősen zavaró.
- Andrei (8/5): - Walking distance to pubs, restaurants, etc. Room was fine. Some construction going on while I was there but I was warned of it so not a big deal.
- Christian (6/5): Ottima posizione - La struttura è tipo Motel americano con tutte le camere che affacciano sulla strada. Tenuta comunque bene. La posizione è molto buona, in macchina abbiamo raggiunto tutti i punti di interesse al massimo in 10min. (calcolando anche il limite di velocità di 30km/h nelle strade di KW). Buono il parcheggio davanti alla porta della camera, anche se due notti lo abbiamo trovato occupato da un'altra macchina. Comunque poco male si trova facilmente posto non a pagamento nella strada principale. Personale disponibile. Bagno abbastanza grande. Buona la pulizia generale. Non so se siamo stati sfortunati ma abbiamo avuto qualche problema con la stanza: il lavandino del bagno non funzionava bene, aprendo il rubinetto si allagava sibito e l'acqua impiegava molto tempo a scendere. Abbiamo avvisato il personale il quale ci ha proposto un'altra stanza per quella notte (l'avrebbero aggiustato il giorno dopo) ma da come abbiamo capito la nuova stanza era più piccola. Dopo un po il lavandino ha ripreso a funzionare quindi siamo rimasti nella ns. stanza. La mattina successiva il problema si è ripresentato per tutto il soggiorno. Altro problema molto fastidioso è che una notte verso le 3 a.m. l'antifurto dell'antincendio, posizionato sul soffitto sopra il letto, ha incominciato a suonare fortissimo svegliandoci di soprassalto (brutta sensazione). Ho chiamato il personale il quale è venuto in stanza non capendo quale fosse stato il problema e spegnendolo con una scopa. Siamo rimasti quindi le notti successive con la paura che potesse ricapitare. All'alba bellissimi galli incominciano a cantare a squarciagola davanti la porta della stanza.
- Thorsten (9/5): -
- Kayla (6/5): -
- Scott (10/5): I cant complain about anything. The room i had was great. - My room was fantastic. The manager showed me how to get too it and I couldn't of been happier with the room I was given!
- Sylwia (10/5): -
- Domenica (10/5): Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo - Camera ampia e pulita Un po’ lontana da duval street
- Dick (5/5): -
- Billy (10/5): - Locally owned, personal service, friendly staff Removing the hostel to add a small pool. I have stayed multiple times and hope this does not raise their rates.
- Alexa (10/5): - Close enough to walk everywhere but not too close where it’s constantly noises. Fairly priced for location
- Daniela (5/5): - Die Lage war sehr gut. Dafür das das Haus eine einzige Baustelle war, war der Preis nicht angemessen.
- Urban (5/5): Zimmer top, leider Baustelle davor & fehlender Pool - Das frisch renovierte Zimmer & Bad. Die Baustelle vor unserem Zimmer mit viel Lärm & der fehlende Pool.
- Loran (10/5): -
- Christine (10/5): -
- Jeremy (9/5): - The location of the motel was great. That the pool wasn't ready
- Peter (7/5): -
- Craig (7/5): Good value. Should be very nice when construction is complete. - Recent renovation with a comfortable bed. Great location within walking distance of Key attractions. Site is actively under construction and even the room renovation didn't seem 100% complete. I do think it'll be a great little motel in the next year or so.
- Luca (9/5): -
- Duane (8/5): We would stay there again. - Inexpensive compared to others. Clean. Large bathroom. There were no issues.
- Eduard (8/5): It’s ok - Close to everything Construction around the room
- Sarka (6/5): - Předražený motel s nepříjemným recepčním. Čekala jsem za ty peníze víc.
- Jodie (10/5): Fantastic! - Clean Cheap toilet paper
- Lorenzo (10/5): -
- Robert_2345 (6/5): Zu teuer für das was es bietet. - Die Lage zum Strand oder Stadtzentrum jeweils 20 Gehminuten.Beratung sehr freundlich und gut. Kein Frühstück. Wir haben ein Zimmer ohne Fenster bekommen, daher recht stickig, da helfen Klima oder Deckenventilator nicht aus. Bis 23Uhr lautes geredet vor der Zimmertür, da viele draußen sitzen.
