Key West Youth Hostel & Seashell Motel

; 718 South St; dm from $54,
motel r from $95; )
This isn't our favorite hostel, but it's about the only youth-oriented budget choice on the
island. That said, both dorms and motel rooms are overpriced.
Mango Tree Inn
B&B

;
603 Southard St; $150-200;
)
This down-to-earth B&B offers a courtyard pool and elegant accommodation in a number
of airy rooms, each decorated with swathes of tropical-chic accoutrement, from rattan fur-
niture to flowering hibiscus. Rates are a deal for this kind of downtown proximity.
Seascape Tropical Inn

Had this B&B existed back in the day, Hemingway could have stumbled into it after one of
his epic drinking binges - it's within spitting distance of his old house. Now you can crash
in one of six rooms, appointed with cool, airy interiors and warm accents like floral com-
forters and high-thread-count sheets.
Old Town Manor
BOUTIQUE HOTEL

;
511 Eaton St; $185-275;
)
While it bills itself as a B&B (and breakfast is included), the Old Town feels more like a
boutique operation that offers a wide variety of rooms - 14, to be exact, spread amid lush
gardens. The digs come in the usual tropically inspired palette, but they're a little more
subdued than the Keys norm. Service is friendly and on point.
