Truman Annex Condos - 5 star location

his property is managed by Compass Realty. Do not expect to communicate with an owner. Nonetheless Compass communicated well before, during and after our stay. They had everything prepared for our arrival and few essentials on hand to help us get started.We love the location of this condo! There’s a waterfront park at the end of the street, it’s minutes away from the beach at the state park and easy walking distance to the best Key West restaurants. We do not rent a car while in Key West because we don’t need one while staying in The Truman Annex. We love this area and hope to return

Our third stay at Southard Comfort

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been visiting Key West and Shipyard for about 10 years now, the last three staying at Southard Comfort. The unit is kept very clean and has all the necessities. My wife especially likes the location on Southard Street where she can watch the traffic go by from the balcony. And, it is a short two block walk to Duval Street.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect everything: location, property management, community swimming pool, 2 balconies,full kitchen!Property was clean and adequate, but decor needs a tropic modern make-over to brighten it up- walls are grey, rugs are grey and tired, chair cushions are grey and don't fit, balconies and furniture could use a power wash. A interior decorator could make this place amazing.

202-9 Southard, Truman Annex

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: New patio pillows add fresh color and charm. Large new white plastic mixing bowls were a useful addition for making salads, and new pots and pans appreciated for cooking. Loved also the new awning over back balcony- perfect balance of sun and shade. Perfect location within walking distance of many attractions and amenities (city and state parks, museums, farmer's market, downtown) Truman Annex is a semi-gated community that is beautifully landscaped and maintained- a jewel.Loved the balconies and fun view of pedestrian life.Office staff goes above and beyond to help. Apt was clean and kitchen well supplied.Living room furniture and rugs are a bit dreary and well worn, but this is a great place to stay and would recommend it.

Southard retreat

We enjoyed our stay at the property. Compass reached out prior to our trip to provide check in instructions and answer any questions which I thought was helpful. The unit was very clean and had everything we needed. We arrived during an unusual cold spell and there were plenty of extra blankets which were needed our first nights! We had everything we needed. We loved the location. By the end of the week it was hot in the unit. That was our only challenge. Otherwise it was a perfect week!

Thanksgiving in the Keys

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We’ve been to Key West a number of times. This was our first stay in a condo at the Shipyards. The property was very nice. Our only problem was one of the beds had been urinated in and smelled poorly. Once reported, the management team replaced the mattress. This made for one not so good night. Location was great. We were close to everything and walked most of the time. Unit was quiet and well maintained. We would stay at this location again but probably not in this unit. The second bedroom had twin beds which were not comfortable for an adult. Giving low ratings for bed issue under furniture and cleanliness. Everything else was perfect.

Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This rental was a great location. The unit was good. Check-in is a nightmare! Photos a bit deceiving, as not much space for 4 people. Furniture and beds were cheap quality and not comfortable. Having stayed in KW before, this time we wanted a place to enjoy and relax during “down time”. I had to resort to the porch for that while my group was in the living room. Bathroom was SMALL! Not enough cook wear in the kitchen. But the place was clean and good location. It was quite insulting to read a sign on thermostat to keep at 78°-80° when you’re in KW!

We've booked thru Compass Realty several times and have always been very happy - highly recommended. As to this unit, very clean and nicely decorated, and important to us - plenty of towels. No complaints here about this unit. Highly recommended!

They let us to leave our luggage in the condo and we can come back after 4pm. Thank you for your top notch services and clear instructions.

Terrific location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I've stayed at several properties in the Truman Annex. This is a great location, well stocked with everything you need for cooking breakfast or heading to the beach. There was a plumbing issue at the beginning of our stay but the management company was very responsive and the issue was corrected within a couple of hours. One other item to note, we were instructed to keep the AC at 78-83 degrees. We were told that there was a concern that the AC would freeze up. We were able to compromise on this and get the AC to a comfortable temperature for sleeping. Overall, a wonderful location, great property and I would stay here again.

We can't wait for our next trip to Key West!

Look no further than the Truman Annex with Compass Realty

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a fantastic time and the Compass staff was outstanding- kind, flexible, helpful.Property was very clean and well maintained. Furnishings were a bit old (couch springs and stuffing were worn out), and the colors dreary ( gray walls, gray brown floor, gray blue furniture). But we loved the front balcony with its love seat and table.Key West, Compass and Truman Annex are the best. The Annex is gorgeous, and the best location in town: quiet, easy to walk everywhere, wouldn't stay anywhere else. Thank you again for a fantastic vacation, superb location, and exceptional staff.
