Comments: the room next door to my room from 2023. Compared to my other rooms this one feels tiny. The kitchen has a convection oven microwave in lieu of a real oven, and the shower and bath are combined (i.e., not two separate things). But I did request the Key West Village and was granted that, and even early check-in (though an hour after I initially arrived). This is another sales presentation so status means nothing. But based on this stay so far I would not buy in. This room is falling apart (balcony latch is broken, kitchen is tiny, paint chipping on the wall, etc.).
