A Great Place to Stay in Key West!!

We stayed for a wonderful week, and found the property not only beautiful, it was super comfy! We loved the privacy and the gated community, and we also loved how close the home was to downtown and to Mallory Square. Would definitely book again!

Nice stay

We have stayed at many places in the annex. This was the first time at a three level. It was a lot for us. We are near 70 and my wife has foot issues so was quite a climb. But, the place was lovely.

Perfect location. Extremely safe. Short walk to all the action

We stayed at the Truman Annex and loved it. So close to everything. Very quiet location. Security gates. Was great. Only issue is there is nowhere to park your scooter if you rent one in addition to having your own car. We already booked for 2025!

Exactly what we had hoped for!

We loved our stay at this rental! It was so comfortable, well decorated, and just felt good. The beds were comfortable. The temperature control was great, even though it's three stories. Great and comfortable front porch! We love Key West and this served our needs very well. Truman Annex is beautiful and special and quiet. Couldn't be better! Thanks!

Excellent experience

Perfect location, near it all! Appreciate the beach towels and 4 beach chairs! Had a great stay! Even when lost on way in - emailed and heard back right away from mgmt. make sure you get solid directions to parking spot prior (Emma street turns into front street). That’s a tip I wish I knew before! Regardless I would stay here again!

Two week stay

Property was as advertised and very clean. All necessary amenities were available for an extended stay. Fast and reliable wi-fi for those that work remotely. 1st floor renovation was excellent. 2nd floor shower head takes a bit getting used to (mister?), and with a 3rd floor bathroom update (for clarity, very clean and functional, just not modern) the property could go from very good to perfect.
