Key West is an interesting place; however this seemed to be a reasonably good hotel for the area. A good price, clean and free popcorn in every room! A nice pool, huge 50" TV, good sized room and a short walk into town, past the brothel mind you! A very comfortable stay for the night, but I probably wouldn't stay... more

The Blue Marlin was a nice little motel for the price (around $105 a night). The room was a little older, but it was spacious and clean and had a newer TV; parking is free, and the air conditioner worked well. The pool is in the center of the parking lot, but was clean and well kept (not too much... more

We got this motel from a coupon book. We were only $109 per night which was quite reasonable for Key West. It is in a great location - really near Duvall Street. The rooms are clean - I didnt notice any sort of smell - and comfortable. The cleaners came quite late - probably after 3pm but we were at... more

The Blue Marlin Motel was a pleasant surprise, just like a great blind date. We arrived in the afternoon to an easy check in, and very clean room. First of all, the place is clean. I don't know what the Scotland guy was talking about, because Florida is HUMID, and so is the island! There was no smell whatsoever during... more

This is a great older motel that has been kept up well over the years. It's in a great location just a block north of the quiet end of Duvall and just a couple blocks from the "southern most" marker. The rooms are clean and smell very clean. Small kitchenette with sink and fridge and microwave. The rooms have great... more

Sayed here for 1 night (thank god it was only one night) as part of a trip to Miami and Florida Keys. Booked the hotel based on the positive trip advisor reviews. Cannot believe the positive reviews now having actually stayed there myself!! On arrival, check-in was very unfriendly and oh my god - the smell of mildew or dampness... more

This motel was one of the best places I have stayed in a long time. We were in Key West after planning a trip for a week at another resort on another key. When we arrived at that resort we were extremly disappointed with that resort, we canceled the reservation for the week. We happened to stay at the Blue... more

This was our second time here, and am glad that nothing has changed! Rooms are large and clean, staff is extremely friendly. Pool is nice, we just park here and walk everywhere - being one block off Duval is perfect. 1/2 block down from here is Anna's market and the breakfast there is a habit. Good food on the porch... more
