Resort Fee Rip Off
This place is an old motel that was converted into a VRBO. It has been remodeled and is clean and the property well maintained.
The checkin process was hampered by the fact that the front desk just consists of a computer on a stand off the front door. It was unattended when we got there and I had to search the property to find someone to check us in. They hit you with a $50 a day "RESORT FEE" when you check in. Their only "resort" feature is a pool. The water in the pool is not heated and was absolutely frigid. Never saw anyone in the water during our entire stay.
The room supposedly had a king sized bed but I'd say it's was more like a prince sized bed. Sure didn't appear to be as large as a full king sized mattress.
Food availability is an issue. The Gates doesn't have a restaurant. Their sister hotel next door the 24°North hotel serves food outdoors by their pool. It's a very limited menu. When we were there it was much too windy to eat outdoors by the pool. There is a McD's about a 1/4 of a mile down the road if you get desperate. The Hilton a couple hundred yards down the road serves a small menu in their lobby but they were "not serving" several items on their menu. Including what we wanted of course. The Marriott across from the Hilton does have a full restaurant. But we didn't try it. Plan on eating down in the heart of Key West where there are tons of good restaurants. Blue Heaven being one we'd recommend.
