Really convenient to everything, but no late night noise! Small, but clean. We had everything we needed to fix breakfast and lunch most everyday. Having access to washer/dryer, coffee maker, fridge, toaster, and blow dryer was very convenient. The deck was great!

My wife and I spent a long Labor Day weekend in this unit and we didn't have one single complaint. This was a very clean, efficiency type, unit. The location is very close to the Southernmost beach and we felt very safe throughout our stay. I would recommend this unit and the owner to anyone!

Cafe Galleria was a great place to stay for the price. It was in a good location near Duval Street. I stayed in Unit #1 and it is a small unit - but it was perfect for the 2 of us. And you don't spend much time in your room anyways. Renting bikes was the best way to get around.

Cozy Lil Place Def Stay There Again

Guest kenneying
Date of stay 04/18/12
Review Submitted 05/02/12

i booked this condo about 3 months in advance as we were being a lil conservative and price conscious as we knew this was our first time in Key West and werent sure as what to expect on our 7 day stay there . as we arrived it was just as we expected from the images and street views we seen on Google maps street views . the place had plenty of street parking and the property was clean and upkept .as i am acustomed to staying in bed and breakfasts up here in New England i would say it is comparible to one of those . when we entered our room it was very clean there were fresh towels and soap / toiletries etc.. we ran out of towels by midweek and the onsite cleaning lady gave us new towels . the room was very adequate for our stay as we did nothing more but shower and sleep there and have a secure place to leave our personals while we ventured out into key west . the neighborhood looked a lil intimidating but once we got settled in and made our travels around we found that the locals were pretty friendly and down to earth and were easy to strike up conversation with which was great tool in finding out about local places to eat and see etc... this also helped put us at ease ..word of mouth is the best at finding out about those local hidden gems . all in all if you are just looking for a place that is comfortable cozy and clean you will not need more then this in key west after all you are in paradise and who wants to stay in doors when youre there ? not me so i say this place worked out great for us as we were out and about all day every day we were there . this place has a fridge , coffee , maker and toaster a nice big back deck with a table and seating which was plenty for us so i would def reccomend this place for anyone looking to save $$ on a room allowing them to have a good time and spend ther money elsewhere in key west as there is sooo much to do there . dealing and renting from the owner of this unit was great as she was responsive with any inquiries issues and i will be renting from her again in the future as we are already planning another trip to Key West .

The location of this guesthouse is off the beaten path, but close to everything. It is peaceful and comfortable. Unit #1 is right on ground level (or I should say sundeck level) and located at the back of the guesthouse. It's private and simple. Unit #1 accomodates the needs of those whom are active and just need a place to wash-up and rest, before heading from the beach to dinner, entertainment, or shopping. The guests are all friendly and respectful of the peace and privacy of others. Requests and inquiries are taken care of with immediacy, via text or phone.

The location was 2 blocks off Duval, and 3 blocks to the beach. We rented bikes 1 block away. The unit was compact, but had a frig. and microwave, dishes ect. There were 2 sinks, shower and toilet were separate. A blow up mattress was provided for my son and neatly packed away during the day. There was also an office to ask for more towels ect. The price was the lowest by far I could find on the net or while researching once there. The unit was clean, had laundry facilities and a keyless system. Telling all my friends about this wonderful find. Max occupancy is 3 people.

We loved the neighborhood as it was very quiet (with the exception of the roosters). I'm a cat lover and one of the neighbors cats kept coming over on the deck for a daily visit! Love Key West and will be returning as we always do.

The TV clicker didn't work. Yup. If that's even a complaint, it's the ONLY one we had (and we only found that out the last morning we were there). Yes, the sweet little unit is small for sure, but if you're like us...you need it to sleep and shower so who needs a palace? That said, I wouldn't recommend more than 2 people in the room---there is an airmattress which we didn't use (although as it was leaned up against the wall we clumsily bounced off of it a couple of times after a few cocktails!), but it would be pretty tight using it. Having the microwave, fridge, and coffee maker was awesome and the split shower in one room, loo in the other? SO helpful for two ladies who cut their getting ready time down in half. The neighborhood is fantastic...so convenient to everything. Walk a mile in any direction and you hit a new and fun thing to see. The locals in the neighborhood are kind and sweet, always with a smile and a good morning/day/evening. The property is maintained perfectly, and while we never used the laundry, it's awful nice to have it right there. Additionally, Stephanie was incredibly helpful and responsive pre-visit, and while we didn't need to contact her while at the condo, I've no doubt she would have been on top of anything we needed. FYI, ladies...there's a hairdryer in the unit, so leave that thing at home! Stephanie, thank you. We will absolutely see you again next year. I can't recommend this unit enough!

Key West was wonderful! Much of our fabulous experience should be credited to our accommodations. The location, deck access, etc. created just what we'd hoped for. I think it was the best value in Key West. My husband has already talked about returning . Stephanie is flexible and great to work with

We just returned form a weekend in Keywest, the Galleria is a Really nice place to stay, Close to the most Southern point and 2 blocks from Duval street (The main Strip). Recommendations- Tropical Bike Rentals-1300 Duval St. (southern point) about 3-4 blocks from Galleria, only $7/day cheapest in town-(Easiest way around the city) Highly Recommend. Mexican-Amigos-Greene st. and Duval st.-Cheap and excellent. Music-Greene Parrot-Whitehead st/Southerd st.-Great bands open til 4AM. Or Pete's Dueling Piano's-Duval St.-Very Entertaining. Have Fun.

This place was wonderful! I was traveling to Key West with my best friend for a little birthday vacation. Stephanie was quick to respond and very informative. She also sent me a map with restaurants and recommendations, we used it a lot!! The 2 half bathrooms were SO perfect. Girls, you'll understand this, there are TWO mirrors. One with a toilet, one with a shower. It was perfect for getting ready. The A/C unit works phenomenally. We were there in July so it was uber hot--our room was the perfect temp every time we came home. There's also a little kitchenette that is perfect for afternoon snacks or late night bites. The bed was comfy too! I can't say enough good things about the room itself. Wonderful experience! The location was very close to Duval, only about 2 blocks away--a very short walk. My only recommendation would be if you are a girl, don't walk alone. Key West is a lovely town but certain parts seemed a bit sketchy to me. Watch out for the wild roosters too! If I go back to Key West I will definitely be staying at The Galleria again. You don't even need to rent a bicycle because everything is just a short walk away! Thanks Stephanie for letting us stay in your beautiful condo! Happy Travels!!

My husband and I had a wonderful time as this was his first time to Key West. The unit is well located and just minutes from everything. Ken could not have made things easier, the unist was nice and clean just as it's stated a bit on the small side but well worth the money. We had an amazing time and the next time we visit Key West will be staying at the Galleria.

We just returned from our trip and wanted to thank you for your recommendations and the wonderful comfort of your place! We enjoyed beautiful (hot) weather and were quite happy to return to a soft bed and cool AC at the end of the day. We also tried a few of the places you recommended for dinner/drinks. Blue Heaven was by far the best meal of our whole trip, and amazing atmosphere on the patio. Anyway, thank you again for being so thorough with directions, recommendations, etc. We had no trouble at all finding anything, and I think the location is just perfect for people like us who love to walk everywhere! If we return to Key West, we will certainly keep you in mind!

My wife and I had a wonderful stay here at the Galleria condo. It was perfect for us! The unit was very clean and comfortable, and had everything we needed. The back deck was a great place to relax. Everything is in walking distance. Stephanie was great to work with; very professional, and also very accommodating when a travel situation arose. We didnt even have a problem finding parking nearby, usually right out front. We will definitely stay here again.

We had a great time in Key West and especially liked the fact that we could walk easily to several really good restaurants (915, Martin's, Pisces) and the Grande Vin wine bar. Also, we really enjoyed several fun art galleries on Willaims St. It was a little cloudy, but we were not there for the beach, but for the experience of Key West.

All in all, it was extremely well priced for what we got, and we have only great things to say about the room! Highly recommended!

The studio worked out great for us. We liked the neighborhood and the closeness to everything in Key West - hardly had to use our rental car. The deck being right outside the room was wonderful, and we enjoyed many meals there (usually had it all to ourselves). We found the Blue Heaven restaurant close by - what a terrific place for breakfast. Thanks again for everything. We will keep your place in mind for future visits.
