“Good price/value”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 28, 2013

By the time we decided to go to Key West most popular or branded hotels were booked up or required a minimum length of stay. While we have visited Key West many times in the past 16 years, we never paid attention to this one.
Great location, in the middle of Key West craziness.
Large room (two double beds, large sofa sitting area and over sized bathroom, refrigerator and large flat screen TV).
Do not expect Ritz Carlton Service, but for the price, location and cleanliness, it did the job.
Only food service is a bar at the pool, yet right outside of the hotel you can find coffee places, restaurants, bars and everything you came to Key West for.
Good price value
Will certainly return.

Room Tip: Not sure if all rooms are the same configuration, but ask for the room with the sofa seating area

“Can't beat the location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 27, 2013

Nothing wrong with this hotel. Pretty clean, staff is friendly enough, location is perfect, right on Duval Street. Room was big enough, but in Key West you shouldn't be in your room much anyway! Skip the breakfast, go get something on Duval Street.

I'd like to know more about that, so give us a buzz if you'd like to expand on that point. Until then, thanks for sharing your kind words. We hope to welcome you back soon!

“Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 24, 2013

Just stayed there for 10 days mid January 2013. Room was very clean, bathroom very small with only a pedestal sink. However I do understand you are limited in Key West as to what you can do on a remodel. Breakfast was sparse but if you just need a quick meal as we did when leaving early in the morning it was fine. Only really bad experience was the very last night when we went to bed early for an early flight and there was a pool party outside our room. Was not too concerned as the pool closed at 10:00 however was woke up at 2:00am from the same party. Still people roaming around at 5:30 am although they had quieted down a bit. I will recommend it to friends and I might even stay there again although if I am there for an extended time again I would prefer to have a kitchen. No need for a car here- we walked everywhere.

Room Tip: despite the bad experience- poolside is the way to go

“I'm an honest, straight-forward reviewer, we had a Great time at the Pegasus :) Especially at the bar with bartender Gary! (Sorr”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 16, 2013 via mobile

My boyfriend & I decided to stay at the Pegasus for multiple reasons. Location, price & quality. We were in Key West for a wedding & knew we didn't want to be in a tiny hotel, nor did we want to be an a hotel that was hundreds per night, it's unnecessary for Key West, if you ask us. So upon arrival we noticed the construction/remodeling..kinda assumed it would be an issue but honestly it wasn't. The crew was super nice & conscientious. Our room was on the 3rd floor/Southard St. side. Room was remodeled, lovely soft bedding.. bathroom was above expectations with ample nice towels, essentials & very clean. We loved the amount of space, even had friends stop by for drinks before going out. Never did the noise of Duval St. or the nearby open late Pizzeria bother us (& I'm a light sleeper). *Our most memorable part of our stay was relaxing at the bar with Gary, the bartender. He made quite an impression on us, very easy to talk to & you don't experience friendliness like that from a hotel as often as you'd like. We hope he is still with the hotel for our next visit..thank you again, Gary, for your service & conversation!! Made our stay one that we will always look back on & smile. :)
