As an Expedia Platinum member, I travel a lot which means that I have experienced and stayed at some particular and challenging hotels globally, but by far, not exaggerating one bit, in a non-entitled way, the WORST experience I’ve ever had was at the Palms Hotel in Key West. The Hispanic staff who barely speak English had an arrogant and condescending tone and were highly unprofessional which triggered/motivated me to post this negative review. Jair or Joaquin (employee gave me multiple fake names), the front desk Hispanic short male is a lawsuit waiting to happen. A person with his horribly poor customer service skills MUST NOT have contact with guests. Diane(a), Hispanic older female, who claims to be the property manager, was just as unpleasant to deal with. They are either untrained or culturally unfit to provide the level of customer service Americans expect in the U.S. These individuals were pompous, presumptuous. Imagine a foreign hotel staff being arrogant towards guests. Laughable. The “Continental” breakfast the property claims they offer is a joke. The pictures of the property/rooms are professionally and heavily edited and photoshopped. The hotel was virtually empty, Expedia extends me late checkouts (noon), but this amateur, incompetent and inefficient foreign staff made such a big deal to honor what their business partner (Expedia) extends to me. They made my stay miserable. I hope the property owners read this review and terminate and/or train these individual

The description on Travelocity makes the hotel look a whole lot better than it actually is. Then on check in they have a facility charge, not sure what this was for.. While staying there did not see anyone using the pool, I think it may have been because it did not have the usual clean water "sparkle" normally expected of a clean pool.

Nice place to stay with really nice pool and nice continental breakfast. It has the Key West vibe but was a bit inconvenient for us to walk everywhere so we ended up getting multiple Uber rides to get around.

We stayed at The Palms for a couple nights, along with some family that were visiting from Germany. Enjoyed the Resort, nice pool area. The daily breakfast had lots of nice options. The staff was great! We did have a problem with our A/C our first night. Sounded like it was on its last leg. Super loud noise during the night. The next morning, we reported it to the front office and they promptly moved us to another room! Now that is customer service!!! We would definitely stay here again.

Charming hotel
Very quaint and unique property. Originally two separate Victorian homes (1880) that have been blended into a seemles charming hotel. Complimentary breakfast had a nice assortment, rooms are very clean and well apointed. It's location is in the "quiet" part of Old Town so it is a bit of a walk to any action. We rented an eCart from A&M. The pool is salt water. Happy hour is from 3-5 at the cabana bar pool side.

Photos of hotel on website are very misleading. Cannot see ocean from hotel - which is more like a motel. Bathrooms tiny. Shower water piddles out and cannot adjust temp of water (it's very hot). Air conditioner noisy. Bathroom sink just inside entry door is not appealing. Roosters on property crow at all hours; woken up at 1:15 am by crowing. Wouldn't stay here again.
