We were searching last minute for a place for 1 night that was close to Duval that didn't cost a small fortune, and some how came across this gem. We got to Key West much earlier than we anticipated and were trying to find somewhere to park our car with our stuff until we could check in, we called to see if they had any room for us and if it would be an option to park until check in, Phil at the front desk said to come by and after we did, he was able to check us in early. The place is beautiful! The room was so quaint and clean, but also much larger than I was expecting. I loved the porch and all the tables outside that allow you to sit and enjoy the Gardens and the fountain, I also love that they used vintage keys. So fitting for this hotel. The parking was literally footsteps from our villa, and only a short 2 minute walk from the middle of Duval street. The best part about the resort is that everything is included with the resort fee, including parking. Breakfast is included and was delicious! I can't remember the gentleman who served us, but his service was exceptional. At checkout the lady that helped us walked out to our car with us so I could get out wine card without having to walk back inside. The service and cleanliness was exceptional and I was disappointed that we were only staying 1 night. I can't wait to return and spend more time here! Thank you for an amazing experience, Gardens!

Overall great experience! The shuttle to and from downtown was super helpful at night. They always had several shuttles so everyone could get back to the hotel. The room fit our needs. One thing to note is the bathroom doesn’t have a power outlet, but there’s a mirror in the hotel room, so you can still blow dry or straighten hair in the room. Whenever we needed new towels, we just asked housekeeping at the laundry room and they gave them to us. Would stay here again!
