Seashell Motel is a budget-friendly option, conveniently located near Duval Street. The motel is clean and the beds are comfy, making it a decent choice for a quick stay. However, the rooms could use some updating, especially the bathrooms, and not everything felt well-maintained. The price was reasonable for the area, but some aspects were lacking overall.

I found this hotel to be a decent option for a budget stay in Key West. The price was pretty good compared to other places in the area, which is a plus. The rooms were comfortable but quite basic, so don’t expect luxury. It's a bit of a walk to the beach and other attractions, but manageable. Overall, it serves its purpose for an overnight stay.

My stay here was a mixed bag. The motel was budget-friendly for Key West, and while the room was mostly clean and the beds were comfortable, we encountered issues with a clogged toilet and a backing shower drain, which really put a damper on our stay. The location was decent, but the lack of immediate help and compensation for our troubles left a lot to be desired.

I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. The staff was incredibly kind, and the cleanliness of the room was impressive. The location made it easy to explore the area, being just a short walk to the Southernmost Point and Duval Street. The room we got even had its own kitchenette, which was a lovely bonus. However, it's not a fancy place, and some may prefer more luxurious accommodations.

I was pleasantly surprised with my stay! The motel room was small but had everything I needed, including a big closet for my suitcase. The outdoor area had a charming tropical feel, though the roosters roaming around were quite a wake-up call. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I'd definitely consider coming back despite a few quirks.

I found Seashell Motel to be an affordable option for a last-minute stay in Key West. The rooms were fairly spacious, providing a comfortable place to rest after a long day of exploring. However, the bathroom could use some updates. The location was great for hitting up Duval Street, although I was disappointed with the lack of amenities like coffee in the morning. Overall, it met my needs, but it could definitely improve in some areas.

My stay at this hotel exceeded my expectations. The staff were exceptionally friendly, and I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and comfort of the room. While the location is convenient for exploring Key West, it’s important to note that the hotel is quite basic and not over-the-top luxurious. Overall, it's a great value for a modest budget, especially given the amenities provided.

We had a spontaneous day trip to Key West and ended up staying at Seashell Motel, which turned out to be a great choice for a reasonably priced stay. The location is perfect for exploring Duval Street and nearby attractions. While the room was older and could use some updates, it was clean and comfortable enough for our needs. The staff were friendly and provided a hassle-free check-in experience. Overall, it was a good value, especially for the price, but if you're looking for luxury, this isn't it.

Our stay at the hotel had both highs and lows. The friendly and professional staff made a great impression, and despite having an unfortunate water leak incident, they quickly addressed our concerns by upgrading us to a larger room. However, the small roach sightings in the bedroom were quite off-putting. Overall, we would potentially return, as it seems those issues could be isolated incidents.

I had a really frustrating experience at this motel, making it hard to recommend. The room was okay in terms of cleanliness and comfort, but the plumbing issues were severe and the staff was unhelpful. I found the price to be too high for the problems we encountered. Overall, it's probably better to look elsewhere if you're planning a stay.
