The hotel was extremely noisy, loud, room was so small we had to go outside just to change our minds, there were no chairs in the room, staff were unfriendly, not helpful. Restaurant was overpriced, not associated with the hotel. Most pf the staff did not speak English; one front desk lade actually told me we should not have come there if we did not speak Spanish, which I do not. This is an English speaking country! There is no parking on site, had to self park 2 blocks away, or pay a lot for a valet to bring the vehicle, and still had to wait a long time for it to come. I WOULD RECOMMED NOT EVER STAYING THERE WHATSOEVER, NOT EVEN FOR FRE!

Great spot

Had a great room. We had a king water view room. Loved the seperate seating area and wet bar area. Had a slight mildew smell, but that’s being an old hotel. And it was only there. Only issues we had was the phones didn’t work. And I asked for more towels he said he would bring them up, never did. The public restroom, had no paper towels or hand dryers. Told front desk , manager said she would fix that. 2 hours later still nothing. The food was good. Raul was a great server at breakfast.

Room was really terrible .. kind of like staying in a white prison block that hasn't been cleaned very much... no decor, no views, no fixtures no carpet... honestly for that price it's probably the worst I've stayed... I know it's Miami Beach but I have stayed in rooms that are just a little bit more that are amazing.!!

I am very very disappointed with the service of this hotel and staff. The toilet doesn’t flush, the phone doesn’t work, my reservation was canceled, the receptionist couldn’t get I to contact with a supervisor. This was the worse experience of my life. Will not recommend, highly recommend a REFUND!!!!
