Hot! Location and room.
Pros:

Location was great.
Staff were super friendly.
The place screams Miami Beach.
Funky deco.

Cons:

Air conditioning ran forever and nothing. The hallways were cooler than the room itself.
The bed felt like a water bed that is broken. Way too soft. The age of the building shows, but that does not create any issues.

muy buena ubicación, grande y cómodo aunque algo peculiar
Pros:

Alojamiento muy cómodo y muy grande para las vacaciones de 2 adultos mas 2 niños, tiene nevera y microondas
la ubicación es muy buena, tienen aparcamiento dentro del complejo y eso es muy bueno ya que es muy difícil y costoso aparcar por las inmediaciones del alojamiento.

Cons:

El alojamiento es algo peculiar en su decoración, muy cargado a la vista y demasiado polvo acumulado en tanta cantidad de objetos de decoración

I stayed here during a business trip and was very satisfied with the cleanliness, comfort overall.
Pros:

The hotel was clean, comfortable, and in a convenient location for my business trip. Staff was professional, check-in was smooth, and the room was well maintained throughout the stay. Overall, it was a solid experience and met everything I needed during my time in Miami.

Cons:

The stay was generally good overall. The only minor issue was that certain areas could get a bit busy and crowded at times due to events happening nearby, but nothing major enough to impact the trip.

A low-key, friendly place ideal for someone on a budget who wants to enjoy the nearby beach.
Pros:

The place is as advertised, you'll get what is expected from a two-star hotel. The staff is very nice and helpful.
The location is fantastic - very close to the beach.

Cons:

The place is a bit run-down and could use renovation, but everything was clean, and the rooms get cleaned regularly.

Atipique mais qui fait le taffe
Pros:

L’emplacement est super, on a un parking gratuit on a même été surclassé !

Cons:

Le ventilateur au plafond a fait du bruit tout le temps. Au niveau de la salle de bain la glace n’était plus très opaque donc on pouvait nous voir depuis la rue
