Pros: Pool, beach area, available kayaks, bicycles. Free breakfast was a nice touch. Nice location in Marathon. Staff checked in every day by text to see if we needed anything. Having a refrigerator was nice. Cons: Old buildings, no central air. One window unit and a 1970's dehumidifier that ran loud and we had to empty constantly. Extremely dated and uncomfortable furniture, bed and pillows. Missing light bulbs, dirty kitchen, hardly anything usable.

When we first got there we were supposed to have a king suite. They had given it to someone else, so they put us in a queen that they use for only emergency situations. We had to fix the door to make it lock I had to ask for pans they were filthy when they gave them to me I wouldn't use them on my outside grill it was a big cockroach on the outside of our door. Had to ask for a hair dryer. Had to ask for an umbrella had no kitchen table in our room the other rooms did. They serve you breakfast you get two eggs one toast and one piece of sausage half the time they don't have coffee cups the place is filthy and the restaurant server was very nice and the lady at the front desk. They tryed to fix that the fact the gave are room away. Need to clean up around building refrigerator sitting outside and furniture. Area is in Grassy Key not Marathon. Nothing walking distance. Over priced for the shape for what they offer and condition the place is in.
