I have mixed feelings about my stay at the Ibis Bay Resort.
First off it is one of the more reasonably priced accommodations in Key West. They have great amenities, such as their large clean pool, free continental breakfast and free transport to and from old town. You can also rent golf carts, scooters, bicycles, and they offer a few different tours.
Unfortunately, we were quite disappointed with our room. We booked the queen bed courtyard room on the 2nd floor. They did a lovely job decorating the tiny room but the room was extremely damp and smelly. The carpet was old and most likely the cause of the smell. The air conditioning system ran continuously and was very loud. The venetian blinds let in a lot of light from the outside hallway and didn’t provide much privacy at night. In order to fit our luggage, we moved the patio chairs and bistro table to the outside hallway.
This is an old motel that has been nicely decorated but requires a lot more than paint to bring it up to modern standards.
So would I stay here again? Maybe, but I would definitely upgrade to a larger room on the main floor with an ocean view.
