Marreros Guest Mansion - Adult Only

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Marreros. The property is a converted mansion 1/2 block away from Duval Street and about 5 blocks away from Mallory Square. We stayed in Room 5, which was on the second floor towards the building's front. We shared the front balcony with 1 other room - Room 6, if I recall. The balcony is divided with a waist level partition. My wife loved sitting out there to enjoy the fresh air and watch the neighborhood roosters. The room was divided in two, with the comfortable queen bed in the main part and a small sitting area with a comfy chair, mini fridge and a desk with a wooden chair in the second area. The bathroom was small but serviceable, with the only oddity being that the toilet was at a lower height than normal. Various people told us the area would be noisy due to people walking around and various restaurant bands. But the place was very quiet, perhaps because we went on a weekday (Sunday night and Monday night). The only noise issue apart from the roosters was trash pickup and leaf blowers on Monday morning. The roosters.... Key West has free roaming roosters everywhere, and they crow at just about anytime. For us, the roosters in the neighborhood crowed from early morning to mid afternoon. They don't crow constantly, but intermittently throughout the day. Marrero's offers earplugs -- I had to use them both nights but my wife slept through without them. I liked that Marrero's offer free coffee 24/7 (from a Keurig machine) and have several self-serve coolers with drinks via an honor bar system. They also offer happy hour from 3:30PM (?) to 5:00PM, with free beer and house wine and discounted drinks. The breakfast is continental style with bagels, toast, bakeries, cereal, hard boiled eggs, and a few other things. I only wished they had more fruit.

Room size. This is not a real compaint, because the room matches the listing and photos. It was more to do with my wife and I - we thought it would be ok but now we realize that we'd need a larger room and/or a king sized bed. Parking - there is no free parking - the street outside is city parking at $5 per hour, and there are payed lots nearby. We were able to snag an actual free street parking spot a block away on Whitehead Street - in front of the courthouse. But there are only about 5 free spots there. Along Whitehead street are more free spots, but only a handful per block. BE VERY CAREFUL TO NOTE THE "RESIDENT PERMIT" markers on the street parking spots - do not park on these.

The staff was very welcoming and probably the best part. Jayme helped check me in and was great to talk to but what really got me was when she took the time to mail something we forgot at the hotel (we had already gotten back to Miami by the time we realized we forgot something). I just called and gave her the address and it was mailed out the next day. We were in the Amistad room and it was super cute and super clean. The hotel was in a great location and easy to get to where we needed, walked everywhere for the most part. The pool is 24 hours which is great even though my gf and I didn't really get a chance to use it. Free water and soda is something that I don't really think about but turned out to be a great perk because most places charge for extra beverages (my gf loves sprite and with the summer heat the water was welcomed).

We did get these tiny ants (smaller than a regular black ant) in the bathroom and by the dresser but it did bother us too much, Florida always has some bug stuff going on anywhere. I think we left some food out on the dresser, they went away eventually. Also, no microwave which was a little bit of a bummer when we had leftovers but not a terrible inconvenience or anything.

June 2022. I absolutely love Marreros Guest Mansion! I have stayed in Key West many times but this was my first time with them and I was blown away. First off, the room was exceptionally clean and cool. We had access to a shared balcony, but never ran into anyone during our stay. The entire place was decorated so beautifully, I even bought a painting similar to the one that hung in our room. The staff were extremely personable and charming. The breakfast was delicious baked good from a local bakery. Pool was very nice and shaded. NO KIDS! and finally, the location was the best I’ve had. perfect spot to sleep soundly and yet one block from all the goings-on on duval.

The staff was so friendly and accommodating. Laura booked a sunset cruise for us which was very helpful. The breakfasts were simple yet perfect for us. Also, loved that there was water, coffee and soda available 24/7 and my husband was very pleased with the "honor bar" in both the lobby and at the pool. Our room was so beautiful and the location was perfect. Everything we wanted to do was within walking distance but golf cart/scooter rentals are everywhere if walking is a problem.

Honesty can't think of anything I would change. Maybe some would complain about it being a bit pricey but so is everything else in Key West. Once your see the place, you realize it was worth every penny!

Beautiful and historic building in a prime location. It's not a chain hotel or a generic rental house. From the awesome decor to the "honor system" for grab and go drinks, you immediately sense that you're staying somewhere special. The cool environment becomes part of your overall vacation experience. Marreros is easy walking distance (like, around the corner) from the best bars and restaurants in Key West. Great pool, too — large, perfect temp, never crowded (often had it to myself).

We had time to spare in Florida before leaving for NYC, we decided to spend 2 nights in Key West and this place was great. Very charming and well decorated.

Our room was way to humid, you could feel the moist instantly. There were an air purifier as well as a dehumidifier but they were too small for the room. It was livable but definitely something I believe easy to work on!

This property was in a great central location! The decor and charm was what won me over!

we thought that the bathroom door in room 9 specifically should not be a folding door. It sticks and is rather loud. Not the worst thing, just our thoughts. We also both felt that breakfast should be a tad bit more than offered. Also not the worst thing. This property is amazing!!!

The challenge was that the hotel is remodelling this week. So contractors have been here during the day and there is a lot in the public areas overnight. However, the hotel gave notice three or four weeks out, and made reasonable accommodations including rebooking. Through that backdrop, the staff was very available, interactive, and friendly. The location was absolutely perfect and convenient. And seeing the owner's vision after the remodel, it is going to be very beautiful.

Again, this hit during a remodel, so things were what they were.

Super friendly staff, very welcoming and enthusiastic to ensure we had a wonderful stay, Our room, #17, was huge, clean and newly renovated. The balcony was fabulous and overlooked the front of the mansion. Prime location without all of the noise from Duval St. Fun fact, Marrero's is a stop on the Key West haunted tour.

Very minor, but walking up the stairs with luggage (2 women) was a bit of a challenge, but 100% worth it!

The mansion was just beautiful!! It was spotless! The staff was outstanding!! The breakfast was delightful!! We have been vacationing in Key West for the last ten years and this is by far our favorite place to stay!!

I have no complaints! My stay at the mansion was perfect!!
