“Fifth Stay”

I go to Key West every January or February for about 5 days to grab some sun and fun in a town that is cool and easy and I always stay at the Alexander Palms Court as the rooms are clean and groovy, the staff is beyond friendly and helpful and the price is right.

The pool and garden area is lush and pretty and is where the Continental Breakfast is set out every morning with good coffee, croissants and bagels.

I am always thrilled to be handed my "check-in beers" from either Rich or Landon and can't wait to get them again in 2009.

“Thanksgiving Bliss”

Alexander Palms Court

29 Nov 2007
4/4 found this review helpful

I stayed at Alexander Palms over Thanksgiving. I had an absolutely wonderful time. From the time we checked in and received a beer, to the time we checked out 4 days later, my girlfriend and I enjoyed ourselves immensely.
The staff, Rich in particular, made our stay stress free, relaxing and accomodating. Rich was extremely friendly and booked several events for us as well as steered us in the right direction for food.
The rooms were clean, and the bed was comfortable. We cooked several times and had no problems with any of the appliances. We were even given additional items as we needed them.
The pool was refreshing and right outside the door. Many friendships were made with other guests. The breakfast was good and well balanced. We will definitely be staying there when we return to Key West.
Oh yeah, the location is right next to Duval street and the Southernmost point on the quiet end. Easy to feel isolated and away from the hustle and bustle.

“Way too expensive”

Alexander Palms Court

11 Sep 2007
1/10 found this review helpful

Awful. For the cost of this place you could stay in a Sheraton in Tokyo including flghts and not worry about the ants and germs that this place brings you. The best thing is the free budweiser you get on check-in, after that, the rooms come with at least one tv station where you can make out the picture, plenty of ants, stinky towels, noisy rooms and a location far away from the main action of Key West.
Oh, and the 'continental breakfast' is an absolute joke, it includes a sticky bun probably manufactured while Ronald Reagan was in power, and some sloppy fruit cocktail that may well include fruit if you bring your snorkelling equipment to aid you through the sludge. Do not pay more than 50 bucks a night at this place. There must better value for money in Key West.

My "Ronald Reagan Era" Honey nut rolls are dropped off every morning (except Wed. They are closed). If an air conditioner goes awry, it is replaced, not repaired. Ants? My property is sprayed once every three weeks and more as needed. Living on a tropical island has it's downside. If you leave food out anywhere, it is likely to attract bugs. We suggest using the refrigerator. provided in every room. If there is a problem, come and see me and it will be taken care of.

As for my rates, I ask to be compared to other properties in Key West. You will find that I am very competitively priced.

Duval Street is Two blocks away and runs one mile from end to end. I will not argue that we are on the quiet end. Galleries, the Butterfly Conservatory, The Southern Most Point and many Fine Restaurants are within a 5 minute walk of my establishment.

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns regarding this review. The opinions of my guests mean a great deal to me. My business and my reputation rely on them.

3/4 found this review helpful

First of all, this place is priced well. Yes, as many reviews will state, the rooms are dated. However, that can be a plus since you get the feeling of stepping back in time. But more importantly, our room was spotlessly clean. Not a speck of dust on the floors. Very comfortalbe bed and super clean sheets. (although I was expecting a queen size bed in my room and there was a full-size). And after staying in everything up to the Ritz-Carleton, our room had the best shower I have ever encountered. Perfect after going to the beach. Even high priced hotels can fail the shower test.

And our room was so quiet. The pool area is great for meeting people staying there. There is a family atmosphere and also the pool area is where the continental breakfast is served. Perfect. Now it's not an elaborate C. Breakfast (it does have croissants, fruit, bagels, coffee, tea, etc.but no meats), but who wants to fill up on breakfast when you are in Key West and want to have a fresh fish lunch somewhere. Actually its a real continental breakfast.

We enjoyed the location which was why we chose Alexander's in the first place. It's a short walk to the beach which we consider important. You can still walk to the nightlife but it's nice to know that coming back you are at the Alexander Palm Court and a quiet area. Don't think that there is nothing around there, just less. Your bike, scooter, whatever rental is only 2 blocks away and there are still several fine restaurantsm deli's and actually several art galleries within 5 blocks.

They have I think 9 rooms and only 6 parking spaces. However, don't worry at all. There is plenty of parking available on the street. After trying places all over town, our best experience dining was at the Duval Beach Club (right on the beach about 3 blocks away).

So you know, I arrived the first night at 5:45. The front office was closed. But don't worry about this at all if you are going to be late. They have it very organized. A note was waiting for me on the gate with clear instructions and within 2 minutes I was in my room. It's good they lock the front gate so at night no one can enter without a key.

On another note, Rich who runs the office, is a great resource for all your questions regarding stuff in Key West. Don't hesitate to ask him.

I would definitely stay there again.

“Quaint and adequate”

1/2 found this review helpful

Stayed for one night with my daughter/son-in-law and our grandchildren, and one of my cousins. Had three units (a two bedroom and two one bedrooms). The facility is somewhat dated, but clean (as per other reviews), and is located in a quiet part of Key West (a mile or so from the major tourist attractions). There is available parking on-site and pool/courtyard area quite nice. I believe it is a good value for the price we paid.
