Very nice place

Very nice place, it's simple but well maintained and well located. Free parking is a ++ considering how difficult is to park in Key West. Continental breakfast was simple but good
Jean, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Authors Guest House is the most amazing place we have ever stayed in. The front desk staff were super friendly and helpful. They were also accommodating to our need to check out remotely. The cottage that we were in was super comfy and cozy. Everything was relatively close to the cottage. The most stressful part of Key West is finding parking and even that was made easy for us!

Great Location

The front desk staff was fantastic!! They were so friendly, helpful, and attentive. The property is in a great location for Key West. Our room was clean and the parking was great. I will say for paying more than $300 a night, I do think it is a bit overpriced.

Great little place

Cute little resort that’s not too far from all the action of duval street. Could walk but not in the hot summer. Cheap fast uber ride if needed. Room was spacious and clean. Some of the furniture is outdated and the pool is a bit small. Otherwise great stay!

Edmund, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Booked the Hemingway cottage. Was advertised as having a full size refrigerator- it wasn't. Advertised on site and street parking- 2 spaces on site is what they have. Everything else is street. When we told them there were ants, we were informed that it's the season for them.

Tripped and fell on cobblestone, something to be careful of, but other than that the property was beautiful, and we had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this property as a great place to stay!
