Yap, hotels are more expensive in KW. There are also many B&B in KW. Do some search and they'll come up. Some of the B&B are also expensive.I'm going to try to add an additional day and stay one night in Key West. Hotels seem to be booked up and prices are jacked up though!
Two years ago I got a Days Inn for $61/n on priceline. That was after several days of bidding. Days Inn is actually at the far easten edge of town, as you enter KW. It was fine for us, as KW is not very big. Parking downtown KW is expensive, so we parked at one place, and left it there for the time when we were downtown, just walked a bit.
There are lots of good seafood restaurant in KW. We walked a little further to Half Shell Raw Bar. The name doesn't sound good, but we've heard good things about the food. Was not disappointed. Oh, in KW, they sell key lime pie everywhere. We tried both the small ones on a stick ($5), and a whole pie ($16-25). It was over-rated. Not quite worth the money or the "novelty".
Have fun in your stays in the keys.
