Great location and clean apartment. Furnishings were worn, could be updated. It was handy to have a fridge and microwave.

This was one of our best VEBOs. We were only here two nights, so if here longer we probably would have wanted something bigger, with a full kitchen. Also, the only negative is the bed is soft and a little creaky, and we would want a king if here longer. But this property is so clean and in an excellent location! Very cute, safe, clean neighborhood, Duvall St is only about 2-3 short blocks. Harbor/Conch Republic Seafood Co only a half mile away. Also, they think of small but important details - extra pillows and blankets, beach towels, travel size Dove shampoo, conditioner, soap in bathroom, two luggage racks for your suitcases. And of course the free parking space is so convenient and saved us $$ since we rented a Jeep. Check-in soooo easy, and no complicated check- out requirements. Great job Vacasa!

The location of this apartment was great! It was close enough to the action, but being one street over it was still quiet.
This place was the perfect size for my husband and I, but if we had planned to stay longer than a few days - the lack of kitchen amenities would have been a struggle. No plates or silverware, bring your own - and you’ll only be working with a microwave to cook with! So don’t plan on buying a frozen pizza to pop in the oven, or eggs for a quick breakfast. Also, remember if you grab stuff for cereal- you need to bring your own bowls and spoons. They give glasses, but there’s no kitchen sink, so you’ll wash them in the bathroom.
Again, the place had a perfect location, and was great for a quick getaway.

My husband and I made a last minute decision to join our friends in Key West.
We rented this place because it was near Duval street and close to where our friends were staying. Very nice & clean. Awesome shower! No kitchen sink or silverware but we made do just fine. Didn't plan to eat much at the house anyways because there were too many awesome restaurants around. On a quiet street. Didn't hear any neighbor noises either. Bed was very comfy. Lots of towels and beach towels supplied. Will stay here again if possible in the future.

We were very happy with how clean and pleasant Gardenia was. I only gave a 4 because the kitchen has no sink and the coffee pot didn't work. The kitchenette is not stocked with muchin the way of dishes. Just know to bring paper plates and utensils with you. I definitely recommend staying here. The location is great.

Very clean and nice little place to stay. Located close enough to access everything yet far enough away that you have peace and quiet. We would definitely rent here again.

Like most places in Key West, rental prices should be about half of what they are. Note the junk fees and add-ons.
The "rooms" or part of the house that we rented was very small at approximately 500 square feet. It's an older house is divided into five rooms. One room seems to be for a live-in resident, and the other four are rented out.
The pictures infer a much larger place as if you're renting a house with a decent-sized bedroom, living room, and kitchen. There is no kitchen but only a small refrigerator, a toaster, and a coffee maker. The only source of water is the faucet in the bathroom. There is a sitting room and a bedroom which are large enough for two (2) people but not anymore.
Next is the noise, or conversely, the absence of peace and quiet. Every morning at 6AM, we awoke to the live-in resident's alarm going off. Another renter on the second story of the house was very obviously very religious in the night time as we heard "oh god, oh god, oh god"... very clearly. This was at first amusing but then distracting.
The house is located on Simonton Street and a corner service street. This rental is right on that corner. The first morning, after the caretaker's alarm went off, we were awakened again by a street cleaning machine, and then on another morning a garbage truck. Every morning starting about 6:30-7AM we heard noises from cleaning and construction vehicles. Also the house is directly under the flight path of the jet planes taking off from the airport.
Regarding the noise, are the A/C window units (there is no central air conditioning which should be mentioned in the property description). Our trip was in June, so we had to leave the two window units running continuously along with the ceiling plans to keep the place cool.

We loved the location to get all around the island. We didn't need much for a kitchen so this was perfect with what we needed.

Gardenia Getaway was a great place - very close to everything yet the street was very quiet. Be aware to bring plastic forks, etc with you - there are none there. Just a couple mugs & a few glasses. No plates or anything else. Otherwise this was a great place - perfect size for 2 people!

The place was immaculate and a charming older B&B style unit. It was close enough to Duval St for walking yet just far enough away from the craziness. The area is well lit and comfortable for walking at night! The unit came with all the amenities and enough pillows and towels! Keep in mind this is B&B and expectations should be as such. It is. It for anyone looking to cook full meals! EXCELLENT UNIT FOR THE B&B EXPECTATIONS!

Close walking distance to dinner spots, bars & activities
We enjoyed our stay as it was the perfect size place for a couple or even two additional people if needed. The parking spot on site behind the property was a nice bonus considering that parking can be a problem based on previous stays. There was air conditioning in the bedroom and living room which was also a nice feature.
Only downside to the place was the fact that there is a small kitchenette with a normal sized refrigerator, a medium sized microwave, toaster and coffee maker. So plan for small things or eating out the majority of the time.
Other then that, close to everything, great location, little on the nosier side if you are a light sleeper but that’s apart of the location.

This spot appears to be an old house museum that was repurposed into a BnB. Spacious redone bathroom, sitting room with a nice sofa, TVs and a decent sized bedroom. Most importantly though, A/C!
We used this spot as sort oasis from the sun. Its possible to walk most anywhere with this as your home bases for cooling off and planning your next stop.
Kitchen however is miniscule. Its literally a shelf with some plates. Just go eat out.

Great location, very clean. Wouldn’t stay here long just due to no laundry available and not a full kitchen (have to do dishes in the bathroom, not a huge deal for me but might be for others). Had beach towels and many towels to use at the house. Everything we needed for a short stay. Property manager contacted me during the stay and check in was a breeze.
