Pros:

Great location and the upper center of South Beach. If you want a quiet night, don't book the ocean view rooms as the music is constantly playing. Restaurant is fabulous with great food.We are retired savvy couple but loved SB.

Cons:

Ocean front rooms are noisy.

Für 2 Personen okay. Für vier würde ich es für vier Nächte wahrscheinlich nicht mehr buchen.
Pros:

Die Lage auf dem Ocean Drive ist super

Cons:

Es ist schon ein stark in die Jahre gekommenes Hotel. Die Lage macht den Reiz aus.
Für 4 Personen in einem Zimmer kaum machbar, da viel zu klein und zu eng.
Aber es ist halt eines der schönsten Hotels auf dem Ocean Drive- von der Fassade her!

Parhaalla paikalla
Pros:

Sijainti erinomainen rantakadulla. Meillä oli superior-huone merinäköalalla. Se kannattaa ottaa, muuten voi katsella viereistä seinää.

Cons:

Hotelli vaatisi taas pintaremonttia.
