Poorly maintained. There were ants in the kitchen - countertops, in the pantry, under the sink. We couldn't leave food out even for a few minutes or store any food in the pantry. I notified the staff, but the problem persisted for the whole of our stay. Also, a/c condenser located in patio was so noisy that the patio was unusable and it was even too noisy to sit and watch TV inside. Decor is dated and walls need repainting. Not value for money.
It was a great spot on the island, and the condo was a perfect fit for 3 adults. More than 3 would definitely be crowded. But overall, worth the money!
We enjoyed our stay at the Shipyard Splendor. We enjoyed the pool, back patio area and the walking convenience. The room at the front was a bit bright at night. Would have liked some room darkening curtains. Overall our visit to Key West was a fun experience. Will be back as soon as possible.
The location of this condo is very good in the Truman Annex area. The Shipyard condo complex is neat and tidy and the grounds are well kept. The area is close to everything yet is quiet at night. The condo itself has some issues however. The kitchen is ridiculously small, there is no dining table at all. The kitchen counter/sink area was infested with tiny crawling bugs that got into any food left on the counters. The window coverings are of very cheap quality and give good privacy but do not stop light from entering the condo at night - it was very difficult to get any sleep because of the brightness of the exterior lighting entering the bedrooms. The living room furniture was well worn and needs replacing. The TV is a flat screen and nice to watch. The bathroom is tiny (like the kitchen) and "finished" in the style of Motel 6. The shower curtain was the low-end flimsy plastic type as found at K-Mart. The patio door will only lock from outside with the key,
The condominium was clean and nicely decorated. We didn't have a problem with noisy neighbors. Everything (A/C, refrigerator, plumbing, etc.) worked like it should. It was nice to have a grill and table on the back deck. We didn't use the pool but there was a lot of space around the pool for lounging, tanning, etc. Plenty of lounge chairs. The pool appeared to be well maintained. The grounds of the Truman Annex Shipyard Condominiums are maintained well. We traveled there on a motorcycle. I was a bit apprehensive about the parking before we arrived but it was nice to see the entire area including the parking was fenced and gated. No one messed with the bike while we were there. The only negative I can think of is the washing machine is noisy. It will be hard to not choose Rent KW Vacations for our next stay. We have used them in the past and have had good experience with them.
The location in Key West was great; close to everything but quiet locale. We had a problem with the television and maintenance was there promptly with a new television set. My one complaint is that the bedroom windows need dark shades or curtains. The outdoor lights stay on all night and shine directly through the window blinds. We finally rigged up a sarong in order to cover the window and get some sleep.
This condo now how a new flat panel TV, blender and stainless steel grill in the back patio.! And, as always, the location couldn't be anymore perfect.
We enjoyed our stay at the Shipyards, the condo was well located - the pool, State Park, access to the wharf area and Duval St. Service was excellent, we had a few problems and the staff quickly (within an hour) came by and fixed everything. The condo was well supplied-except for a few points. There was no coffee table in the living room and since there was not a table and only 2 bar stools, it made it difficult for 3 people to eat breakfast at the same time. The linens were past their prime--and the blankets had to be washed prior to use. The mattress pads and pillows were soiled and definitely need to be replaced. We would however stay there again, overall we enjoyed the condo and location.
Since this review was sent, the bedding (sheets and mattress pads) have been replaced with new ones.
Nice easy access to everything, beach, town, Mallory Square, all within easy walking distance or biking. The accomodations were fine, well cared for and clean. The only drawback is maybe the walls are just a little too thin, but overall a nice choice for the money.
