Pros:

The location & staff were exceptional.

Cons:

Unfortunately we had a room without a window which I understand could not be helped because the hotel was full however if we had known this prior we wouldn't have stayed. Especially for the cost.

Wouldn’t stay at this hotel again.
Pros:

The location is good. There’s a convenient mini mart underneath the hotel.

Cons:

I paid extra for the discounted meals at their hotel restaurant, only to get there and realize anyone can purchase the discount vouchers, so I overpaid for the stay for no reason. Their restaurant is the most expensive one on the strip, we tried out several others. Sheets were over starched, no window to the outdoors, bizarre glass door to bathroom with large gap at the top. Shower curtain was too short for shower so water went everywhere for every shower. The supposed beach chairs/umbrellas you have to wait in line for, even if you don’t want the umbrella just the free chairs. Beach staff will come over repeatedly and harass you to check in for the chairs- we were ignored by an employee at the sign in kiosk, apparently they don’t open until 9:30(ish!) and somehow this is your fault. The hotel was a bummer overall- just way overpriced for no included amenities and a motel 6 bed comfort level. There’s a mini fridge but no microwave. Very small room.

Not great
Pros:

It waa clean. Oscar at front desk was great!

Cons:

One of the night / evening front desk staff on March 22/2026 was downright rude. So much so that my friend asked him if he was having a bad day. Unacceptable for front desk staff.

Não foi fácil acostumar com o hotel, mas no fim ficou razoável.
Pros:

O quarto é razoável de limpeza e conforto.

Cons:

Tem um restaurante bem na portaria. Uma bagunça e som alto toda hora. Hotel antigo em quase tudo.

Perfect location for Miami Beach in a hotel that’s calmer than the restaurant outside suggests. Recently renovated with
Pros:

Corner rooms have a great view
Very helpful staff
Rooms were large and comfortable with a bath and nice little touches

Cons:

Don’t be put off by the noisy bar/restaurant on the front of the hotel (as most in the area have)
There was a large fitness event on the beach opposite, the constant very loud music and PA from which all day got irritating.
If you’re a light sleeper bring earplugs as Ocean Drive is a busy road
