Location is good, rooms are iffy at best
Pros:

Staff was nice. Walking distance to Biscayne Bay

Cons:

Door didn't fully lock-the deadbolt wouldn't lock. There is no place to sit in the room, the only chair was wobbly metal that looked like it was going to collapse. The sink and mirror have no electrical plugs anywhere near it, so if you want to look in a mirror while you dry your hair, you are out of luck. The room was very dark

It was very dusty
Cons:

From the time you enter the bedroom areas it felt and smelt like we were just breathing dust. The building needs an industrial cleaning and renovations.

Sucked
Pros:

No hot water and staff didn't didn't care. Found a hair in the mini fridge. The floor in my room turned my feet black when I walked bare footed.
