    Very nice B&B in Key West

    August 04, 2012

    We got great service at LaMer & Dewey House. The B&B is part of a larger Resort, so you get the best of both worlds. The staff was extremely helpful and great to work with. We enjoyed the beach, daily breakfast, location and Service. We would have preferred a balcony, but our room was very spacious, and the one with the balcony they offered us was much smaller. Overall I would definitely recommend to others.

    not worth the $500/nt

    March 01, 2011

    I stayed in the ocean front mini suite and I do mean MINI.The room and bath were very small. The two arm chairs in the room were well worn. I tipped the maid daily and each day she seemed to do a lesser job than the day before. The staff was excellent! Anything I could have requested (except better maid service) was made possible.

    John and Dewey House are fantastic

    August 08, 2007

    The Dewey House was wonderful rm 419. The view was beautiful and the room clean and quaint. The location is excellent but the best feature of Dewey House is the innkeeper John. Great for morning talk, a great waffle, and safe dining and fun recommendations. Thanks John for a great time.
