We loved our stay here, pet-friendly, and enjoyed walking to different bars and restaurants. Very clean and easy to communicate with the property manager. I'll be back next year!
Another nice VRBO property! The Knowles House Cottage is as advertised and we’ve already planned a return visit. The property management is quick to assist and answer any questions directly related to the property or Key West area

The 2 bedrooms were spacious and nice however, the common area did not have a TV, kitchen sink or a dining table.

Hi Randy, thank you for your review. We do not advertise having a kitchen sink, dining table, or tv in the middle /common room. That is why it is not pictured or in the description. Sorry you missed that but hope you still had a great time out in the Keys. Thank you for staying with us. It was a pleasure to host you!
We recently spent four nights in this Old Town rental. On the positive side, it was an easy walk to many Key West attractions, we enjoyed the pool, the neighborhood was quiet, and our host was quick to respond whenever a problem arose. On the negative side, there were lots of problems which arose…..To begin with, the property was advertised as having a kitchen or kitchenette. It turns out it had a microwave and fridge but no sink or dishwasher. If you scroll all the way down to the fine print, you will find an acknowledgement that a sink is lacking. But that should have been more prominently mentioned – it was an unexpected annoyance to have to wash our dishes and utensils in the bathroom. Also, there is no TV in the very dimly lit living room. What we did complain about was (1) we lost the sound on one of the TVs, and someone had to come to the property to correct this (2) On our second night, the security code didn’t work, and we could not open our door – our host responded quickly and reset it – and then it happened again the next evening! It’s not a pleasant feeling getting locked out like that (3) worst of all, on our final evening, just as we were heading for bed, two smoke detectors, for no apparent reason, went off with a ear-shattering kaboom. Again, our host was responsive and sent someone out within 30 minutes to silence the malfunctioning alarms. But still, it rather harshed our mellow, to say the least. Not recommended.
