Free shuttle saves you $40/day in Old Town parking
Warm chocolate chip cookie at check-in (the DoubleTree classic)
Brzi pregled: It’s a standard suburban resort that happens to be on an island—you could be in Orlando if you didn't look at the palm trees.
Pregledano od @Elholmes: I stayed here to save on those crazy Key West prices and it was such a win. The rooms are huge and modern, and the shuttle made getting to Duval Street so easy without the parking headache. Definitely grab a bike to explore the island!
Što su rekli gosti koji su boravili ovdje
The hype
Travelers love the pool and the staff, but the rooms feel a bit dated compared to the lobby.
Reality check
The 'frequent' shuttle is a pain point—if it's full, you're stranded until the next one or forced to pay for a taxi.
You are a Hilton Honors member chasing points
You have a rental car and plan to explore up the Keys
You prefer a quiet pool day over a rowdy Duval Street bar crawl

Bathroom hygiene: Bathrooms are clean but dated; grout lines show age but no active mold outbreaks reported recently.

5 stvari koje trebate znati prije nego što dođete
💡The 'resort view' might just be a view of the top of the HVAC unit.
💡You can hear the housekeeping carts rumbling on the tile walkways in the morning.
💡The shuttle stops running earlier than the bars close—don't get stranded at 2am.
💡The 'balcony' in some rooms is barely big enough for two chairs.
💡It's a popular spot for wedding parties, so weekends can get rowdy at the pool.
