We arrived at the hotel and thanks to the open communication, i knew that we had to go to North 24° to check in. From the minute we walked in, we were happily greeted by the hotel staff. We arrived early and our room wasn't ready so we sat at the bar and had lunch while we waited. I received a text from the front desk to let us know that our room was ready and we were upgraded to a pool view room and a welcome bottle of champagne. Everyone we encountered was so friendly and helpful starting with Jose (front desk), the gentleman putting out the towels, housekeeping, bartenders and the concierge (can't forget the hilarious roosters). We would 1000% return to the Gates!
The room was great! Hotel structure is also very good, pool was clean and pool area is beautiful with the iconic rooster of key west. The only thing I didn’t like about this hotel was the breakfast. There is no buffet, you have to order from the pool bar.
Overall I would say it was an okay experience. When we arrived we were a bit shocked by the chicken reviews but even though the hotel provided us with ear plugs we didn't need them. Our room was relatively sound proof and we couldn't hear the chickens. I don't know if it was just luck or if the hotel took some measures. There is also a free shuttle to the center of key west which departs every hour. The shuttle makes frequent stops but since parking is a nightmare in the center it was a nice amenity. The room was quite expensive and didn't offer as much as we had hoped for. You have to pay a hefty tax resort fee of about 50$ a day. For me this was high because all it included was access to the pool and the gym. Furthermore we had to pay for parking which cost 15$ a day. I personally feel that at least parking should have been included in the room price or the resort fee. All the staff except the receptionist weren't really friendly and treated me like an inconvenience. Overall I would say it definitely wasn't the worst experience I had in a hotel but for the price i expected much more.
