We have probably stayed at Key West Harbor Inn ten times. The location is perfect, close to the Marina where you can find food or a Sunset Cruise, and three short blocks to the north end of Duval Street, where the action is.
The Inn is clean and well maintained. Although it is close to the streets, the beautiful thick tropical landscaping makes it like an oasis. The rooms are nicely furnished and comfortable.
Breakfast is offered until 10:30AM. I don't recall how early they start since we are rarely out of the room before 9AM on a Key West morning! The offerings include a very nice selection of fresh pastries, juices, fruit, cereals, and coffee. Afternoon happy hour includes a full bar, though the appetizers are modest, such as chips and dip, salsa, and pretzels.
The staff are friendly and helpful. Tracy has been there several years, which speaks well of the stability of the Inn and its operation.
The HIGHLIGHT for us is the fact that they use the heat pump to CHILL the pool in the summer. We often visit on the 4th of July; a pool temperature around 80 degrees is a real treat!
The only DOWNSIDE is that some of the rooms are a bit small and with a king sized bed can be a little tight to navigate. Since most of the rooms are different, if you have an opportunity to view the rooms before choosing it is a good idea. We have a favorite which I'm not sharing! Also, be aware that parking can be a problem (anywhere in Key West, for that matter). We rent bikes and don't need a car while we visit so this has never been an issue for us, but is something to keep in mind.
If you like a small, quiet, comfortable B&B try the Key West Harbor Inn ... you won't be disappointed!
