El Rancho Key West Reviews:
My parents go to Key West every year for their anniversary and have for as long as I could remember. They have brought us, my sister and I, a couple of times in the past but tend to have a better time by themselves. This year we are old enough to drive down on our own and have a great time just the two of us. The biggest difference is that we didn’t have the kind of money my parents have for their vacations so we needed to find a down town hotel on a budget. The El Rancho Key West was just the ticket. We rented a room with two double beds and private bathroom for a steal! The room was clean and comfortable. The location was outstanding. Jenna and I had a chance to get to know one another again as young adults and found that we really like each others company. She is the greatest sister a brother could ever have. The El Rancho was a great place to stay for us and we plan to recreate the trip again in the future before we get out of college.
I am one of those people that did not heed the warnings of the travel agent, front desk clerk, and websites. I did not book in advance. Once we arrived in Key West we couldn’t find a vacancy anywhere, well accept for five hundred dollar rooms at the biggest and most expensive places on the island. We nearly gave up all hope until we tried the El Rancho. Beggars can’t be choosers right? The room was real cheap and available, well almost, it was their last room and it had the wrong sized beds. We prefer a king, we are very big people, and we had to settle for two doubles which meant we had to sleep in separate beds. But all in all the room was very clean and the beds were comfortable enough, even more so than the one we sleep in at home. It is interesting that we ended up saving a lot of money and staying in a nice place. People always talk about the hotels being so expensive near Duval Street, but the El Rancho Key West was only two blocks off of Duval and very reasonably priced. The only thing I would do differently is book in advance next time so that we could get one bed instead of two.
