This hotel served its purpose for a brief stay on the way to Key West, with a modest and clean room. However, the thin walls allowed for noise from neighboring rooms, which could be bothersome. Additionally, the absence of breakfast options was disappointing, although it led us to discover a lovely spot nearby. Overall, it's a decent choice if you're just passing through, but not particularly memorable.

I had a wonderful stay at this motel after exploring Florida for a week. The room was spacious and comfortable, with all the amenities we needed. The staff were very helpful, but I did have some trouble with the Wi-Fi during my stay. The pool area was great for relaxing, albeit the waterfront swimming was tricky due to the rocky shoreline.

We had a wonderful stay at Sun Outdoors Marathon, enjoying the nice location in the middle of the keys. While the vacation rental was comfortable, we faced some issues such as insufficient supplies and limited laundry facilities. The bathrooms also needed more attention, which detracted a bit from our overall experience. However, the friendly staff made our stay enjoyable.

I had a pretty decent stay; the motel was clean and offered a comfortable atmosphere, which I appreciated. While it's a bit outside the main area of Marathon, it served as a good base for exploring the Keys. The lack of nearby dining options was a drawback, and the pool being out of service during my visit was disappointing, especially with the heat. Overall, it was an affordable choice with friendly staff and clean rooms, but it could use some improvements.

The facilities were decent; however, the pool was out of action for a couple of days, which was very disappointing given the heat.

We had a lovely stay at this resort in the Keys, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and great access to nearby attractions. Our room was clean and spacious, fitting our needs perfectly, but we did encounter some issues that prevented it from being a flawless experience. The staff were welcoming, but service areas, particularly cleaning, could use some improvement.
