TRUMAN HOTEL, Key West

The hotel sits in the heart of Old Town Key West, just one and a half blocks from Duval Street with its restaurants, bars, and shops. The Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum is a 6-minute walk away, and Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville Café is 1 km from the property. The Southernmost Point, Sloppy Joe's Bar, Mel Fisher's Treasure Museum, and the famous Key West Sunset are all within walking distance. The nearest beach is under 2 km away. You can park your car on site and explore the entire town on foot - no car needed once you arrive. Mallory Square is about 25 minutes on foot.

Rooms feature large platform beds with thick bedding, tile floors with zebra rugs, built-in desks with leather chairs, and modern lighting. Bathrooms have tiled showers with glass doors and marble countertops. Every room includes a refrigerator, coffee maker, hairdryer, iron and ironing board, flat-screen TV with cable channels, and iPod docking station. Some rooms offer a private patio or a balcony overlooking Truman Avenue or the pool area. The Deluxe Queen room is larger and more likely to have a pool view or private balcony. Rooms with two double beds, two queen beds, or a king bed are available. Upper-floor rooms facing the inner courtyard are quieter; ground-floor and street-facing rooms may experience more noise from the road and passersby. Some rooms have poor sound insulation, making footsteps and hallway noise audible. A limited number of accessible guestrooms with 32-inch wide doorways, roll-in showers, grab bars, and accessible bathrooms are available.

The free continental breakfast includes fresh French pastries (croissants, bagels), cereal, yogurt, fruit, orange juice, and coffee. The breakfast is served at tables around the pool area; seating can be limited, especially during peak times or in rainy weather. Items such as chocolate or almond croissants tend to run out early. There is no full-service restaurant or bar on site. A fruit-infused water station is available throughout the day, and a daily complimentary wine happy hour takes place from 17:00 to 18:00 at the pool. A CVS supermarket across the street allows you to buy drinks and snacks. Several restaurants are within a short walk, including Blackfin Bistro, Duffy's Steak & Lobster House, and Key West Cuban Coffee, all about 0.5 km away.

The heated outdoor pool is the centerpiece of the property, surrounded by a landscaped courtyard with plenty of sun loungers and seating areas. The pool is open all year and pool towels are provided. The courtyard offers both sun and shade, making it suitable for reading or relaxing throughout the day. There is no spa, gym, or bar on site. The pool area can become crowded, and some sun loungers may be in the shade during parts of the day. Free wine is served poolside during the daily happy hour.
