Property was perfect for my vacation. Check-in was quick and friendly. There were a few quirks with my key not working once or twice and I had to wait one day to get my room straightened out, but I enjoyed my stay. It was within steps to Collins Ave and the beach, allowing me to hang out and enjoy the beach at sunrise. There is lots to do, including the Miami Convention Center, Botanical Garden, and lots of food and shopping. If anything there were tiny details in the room that could have used attention, but I was otherwise comfortable and feel this is a jewel of a location to invest in. Great for solo travel.

There was a strange smell in our room, the smell was a mold or mildew smell, and rotten eggs. The ceiling look like as if it’s growing mold on it, not sure if it was made that way but I doubt it. The floor was very wet and moist our whole stay. When we first checked in we had towels but there weren’t any small face towels, when I asked for face towels I was only given 2 towels after we had been there for 2 days already. Every time we left and came back we noticed that housekeeping entered our room but didn’t clean just took towels and didn’t replace them, if they did it would be all big dry towels no face towels. The restaurant that’s connected to the hotel the food was horrible and the 2 female waitresses were very rude, and had very bad attitudes because they had to do their job. I asked the front desk for a manager and was told that they don’t do business with them. The overall room was okay despite the horrible smell and no face towels in our room upon check in and also the floor being moist and wet our whole stay. Me personally wouldn’t stay here again the next time I visit Miami.

Great location and amenities

The hotel and amenities were fantastic. Location was great. Rooms need to be more upgraded with smart TVs and phone plugs. Housekeeping staff were all fantastic and above and beyond. Front desk staff were very unfriendly, didn’t welcome or smile, and unwilling to help. Exact opposite of the housekeeping staff who smiled

This place was fabulous. Check in was easy, efficient and welcoming. The staff is so freakin nice!!! I’ve stayed many places in South Beach… this one has a kitchen in it, allows dogs, and separate bedroom area. Def worth the upgrade! The beach is within walking distance, CVS and Joe and the Juice just around the corner. I would recommend this place!!

Mildew and Moldy rooms no working plumbing

The hotel had no parking, while waiting in line to check in there were multiple people complaining of the plumbing not working, upon checking in and getting in our room it smelled like mold and Mildew, we had no working AC and they had a portable AC unit with a tube pulling air from outside, we had to go to the front desk every time we wanted to use the toilet for them to come fix the toilet, the showers flood the bathroom which is probably causing the mold and mildew smell, no outlets in the rooms to plug in phone chargers etc. AVOID THIS HOTEL AT ALL COST

I've stayed at this hotel before and had a great experience, which is why I decided to return. Unfortunately, this time was very different. The room had an unpleasant smell, there was a bug on the bed, the remote control didn't work, and none of the lights in the room worked properly. I was really surprised, because my first stay was amazing. I hope management takes care of these issues, since this place has potential, but my recent stay was disappointing.
