2nd time visitor

Construction during the day next door made for a noisy stay. Room next door constantly opening and slamming cupboards in the middle of the night. Room is great. This visit was not restful.

Excellent Old Town location

Most enjoyed the close proximity to the heart of the Key West Old Town area. Walking distance to great restaurants, shops, and museums. Very busy during spring break and St. Patrick's Day, so parking was difficult. Very quiet and comfortable with kitchen amenities, except there was no coffee for the coffee maker. Found coffee and other food items at CVS nearby.

Lived up to the positive ratings!

We stayed at Riptides this last week. Centrally located, this efficient unit is nestled right into the neighborhood just a few streets off of Duvall. It is still very quiet while close to action. Check in and communication with our host Whitney was great! Comfy bed, little kitchen and easy stay. It lived up to the positive ratings!

October Review

Whitney was very responsive to my questions and any concerns. I was there during Hurricane Milton and she was very supportive, suggesting a local grocery store I could use to get some food stuffs before the storm hit Key West. The location was very centrally located allowing me to walk everywhere while exploring Key West. Thank you for a great stay.

Cozy hideaway close to Duval Street

This was a good spot to stay for the weekend. We were in town for a wedding and just needed a couple days. It was great to be just a street over from Duvall Street and an easy Lyft ride to the wedding location. The room was very clean and the manager very responsive. The bathroom is a bit small but it was fine for our needs.

This studio is tucked away off street. The place was small but efficient and clean. Bed was comfortable and AC was cold. Great location and plenty of scooter parking spaces in front . Good for a couple just needing a decent place to sleep close to Duval.
