If you are interested in history you might want to visit President Truman's Little White House on the Naval Base. Again, a charge for a guided tour.

Mallory Square at Sunset is a great experience.

We stayed at a Bed & Breakfast. There are lots of them around.
I will second a visit to President Truman's Little White House while you are in Key West -- very interesting. Also Mallory Square at sunset is wonderful. My friends and I stayed at a bed and breakfast about 5 blocks from Duval Street -- a little cheaper, we walked everywhere or took a taxi after sunset. I really enjoyed Key West and would love to go back!
