Diamond with Rough Edges, its kinda cool
Pros:

Basic but GOOD.. I was over for 5 nights for the F1, when I walked in wasnt expecting a lot, after a swift check-in, found my bearings with the hotel, I has a front room on 3rd floor, i was solo, suited all my needs, big flatscreen TV, lovely shower, bed that i slept really well in, minibar i didnt touch but everything there, felt safe, not noisy. Never felt uneasy once, did think the door was a bit dodgy, but again felt safe, everyone there like my was having fun, felt secure. Hey this Hotel is no Ritz, or Plaza, its a good honest Hotel with a little character, brilliant location being 1 St away from Ocean Drive. Bar and food looked good, i didnt try, not because it didnt want to, i was on holiday, sightseeing and F1, brilliant base, cleaner did her job to perfection and reception accommodated my late checkout which gave me another day, again thank you. in a Nutshell, if its somewhere to sleep and a base, why pay $$$$ when u can pay a little less and enjoy, youll need the extra money ;)

disappointing
Pros:

My girlfriend and I were supposed to stay at this hotel, but unfortunately we were stranded at the airport and were unable to make it to Miami. We therefore did not stay at the hotel for a single night and did not use any of the services we had paid for. We ultimately had no choice but to return to France.

I immediately contacted the hotel to cancel the reservation and asked if they could offer a solution. Unfortunately, I was only offered a partial refund, which was less than half of the total amount we paid.

I find this extremely disappointing and difficult to accept, especially because this was a very significant amount of money for my girlfriend and me, and we did not benefit from the stay at all.

I also work in the hospitality industry myself, so I understand that cancellation policies exist. However, when a guest genuinely cannot make it to the hotel due to unforeseen circumstances, I know that hotels can sometimes show some flexibility and make a commercial gesture, especially when the room was never occupied.

I completely understand that there are cancellation policies, but I find it very disappointing that, given the circumstances, the hotel was not willing to offer a more reasonable solution.

Overall, a very frustrating and disappointing experience, especially considering the significant amount of money involved for us.
