REVIEWS: Sadly the only review we've received from this platform was our first and only less than 5 star review - the review expressed disappointment in the comfort of the living room furniture, which has since been replaced. The furniture in question was temporary as it was all we could get at the time we purchased during the pandemic - this sofa has since been replaced by a comfortable sectional sofa as seen in the new photos.

As many of our guests are repeat or booked privately or through other platforms, our other five star reviews are not visible here.

My First Less Than 5 Star Review

The Good is there is a lovely outdoor courtyard that we spent much of our time enjoying and the off street parking spot is great as well. The location is within easy walking or bike riding distance of the main attractions/beaches/restaurants/live music venues and nightlife. The Less than Good is that there is not a single comfortable seat in the entire house. In general, the condition of the interior is not as advertised and the house is in a state of decline. While the appliances worked great and the downstairs shower was great. The "sofa" you were to relax on while "enjoying TV that features Netflix" turned out to be a very small and uncomfortable piece of furniture that allowed you to see the TV that did have Netflix but no Cable Service. The two additional chairs were less comfortable than the "sofa". The cleaning fee we paid was approx. 1.5x the norm for KW and only included one cleaning that occurred after your stay (every other rental we had in KW over the last 5 years had a mid-stay cleaning included). While not advertised in the add before our stay, the owner also apparently now expects the guest to launder all of the sheets and towels on the last morning of departure, but at the same time advertises all laundry being treated with very hot washes as part of Covid precautions. Prior to our stay we were thinking this property would be a great place to return to annually. Suffice it to say we have changed our minds.

Response from VrboOwner on Sep 15, 2023
Hi Sean, I'm sorry to hear that you found the living room furniture uncomfortable, we were limited in our purchase options when we ordered due to COVID-19 and supply chain issues. That said, we do agree with you and also want something more comfortable, so we're going to be replacing the furniture this year. I'm sorry you found the cleaning process inconvenient or expensive. We charge only what the cleaners charge us, and follow the same process that they have for their other clients in the area. Both the cleaners and other rental owners told me it was standard practice to have guests wash towels and linens before they left. However, if you found this daunting or inconvenient then I apologize. If you would like to come back, please contact me directly, and I would be glad to offer you a discounted rate as compensation for your inconvenience. Hope you'll come back again. All the best, Eleanor's Place Key West

About the host

Hosted by Owner/Property Manager

Host profile image

Eleanor's Place is our privately owned cottage. We are a Canadian couple, who discovered years ago that Key West is one of the most special places in the world. Our hope is to live in Key West for half the year when we both retire. In the meantime we use the cottage in the winter when we can, and we rent it out when we can't be there. We are warm, friendly, and responsible people who pride ourselves in taking good care of our house - we look for renters who will do the same.

What makes this property unique

Eleanor's Place is in a great location of Old Town Key West. The beautiful renovations that have been done, along with its lush private patio, central air throughout the house, and its own private driveway (a highly sought after, and rarely found feature in Key West homes) make it truly a unique piece of paradise!
