    Mediocre place to sleep. Literal roach motel.

    Unit 10 had an insane amount of roaches. We found them crawling all over the bathroom and under the fridge. We were scared to sleep at night :( water pressure was equivalent to a beach shower…. Bed was extremely uncomfortable. Rat traps all over the property. Simply a place to try and rest your head. Highly disappointing

    Affordable and good location

    Beds were uncomfortable. Very tiny bathroom. Shower head very low. Water pressure not good. Could use a comfortable chair. Some areas of the walk ways were in disrepair. Dated but clean motel.

    Room was clean. Very dated. Two window AC units kept the rooms cool. Quiet. Grounds were kept clean. Pool was clean. We were able to have our dog with us for extra charge of $5.00 per night. Really appreciated that.

    Consistent water temps in showers would be nice. Floors were fairly dirty, made your feet black.

    Over all, had a very nice stay at Sea Dell. Its quaint, old-style structures remind me of why I first came to the Keys. Rooms have all the standard amenities.

    The bed was not comfortable at all. You couldn't lock the door unless you slammed it. It was hot in the room

    The outside was super nice to chill and grill after the beach

    We saw hairs on our bed sheets. The rooms need a face-lift.

    The staff ,especially the guy at the desk very so friendly, helpful and informative. Location was great. The shower was clean with hot water but very basic shower.

    Would have liked an extra towel and pillow although I’m sure these would have been provided if we asked.

    Exactly what we expected for the money. Our stay was made better by the guy on reception who recommended several great places to eat and where to park for free in Key West. The place is dated but clean and comfortable. Took about an hour to Key West. We had the pool to ourselves as it doesn’t get used much. Just around the corner is Crane Point which has beautiful gardens, nice walks and a museum. Definitely worth a visit if you have time. Great breakfast over the road.

    Room was dirty. Someone had clearly used the bathroom before we checked in. Not worth $200 a night, but this was the cheapest option within an hour of Key West.

    The receptionist (I think his name is Ryan) is very kind. He recommended a great place to eat fresh seafood nearby. Location is great, 2 minutes drive to the water, and 1 hour drive to Key West.
