Strandnahe Unterkunft in schlechtem Zustand.
Pros:

Nah am Strand und Bushaltestellen

Cons:

Eher dreckig, kurz nach Ankunft konnte man weder mehr Bettdecken, noch Handtücher bekommen. Insgesamt schien das Personal gelangweilt.

Cerca de todo
Pros:

la ubicación excelente y lo mejor es que tiene parking gratis, por lo que pudimos ir caminando a la playa sin problemas.
Dice que no tiene desayuno, pero hay cafe y donas en la mañana, lo que es perfecto para un desayuno rápido.

Cons:

es un poco antiguo pero esta correcto por el precio.

James Hotel
Pros:

Localização e preço

Cons:

Combinei early check-in para as 13:00 horas, mas só me atenderam as 14:00...ele não tem local para guardar malas, a gente fica preso no lobby do hotel. Atendimento da funcionária não amigável.

Great location, poor cleaning and maintenance
Pros:

The location was the best part, and I think the higher price is justified because of it.

The staff was always available at the front desk and very attentive.

The room comes with a mini fridge, microwave, and hair dryer.

The lobby is also a highlight — very colorful and artistic, and it's clearly the one area they keep clean, maintained, and tidy.

Cons:

•The bathtub would flood every time you took a shower
•Mold on the ceiling
•Poor quality towels and bedding sheets
•The rooms are in dire need of a remodel — it feels like maintenance has never been done. I understand they want to preserve what they have, but it comes across as neglected and poorly kept.

Não recomendo
Pros:

Não gostei de nada desse hotel.

Cons:

A atendente do dia foi rude, o hotel tem cheiro de velho, os móveis são velhos, paredes sujas, tivemos que mudar de quarto porque a luz ficava apagando e voltando e era um defeito da instalação do quarto, o chuveiro não esquenta o suficiente, o frigobar fica dentro de um closet que não abre a porta porque a cama fica bem na frente.

The right improvement would take this place up a couple of notches.
Pros:

The location was close to my festivities. The price was good. I stayed from Tuesday to Sunday. I like that the place is artsy and not that far from the beach. Check in and out was easy with no hassle. The front desk guys were nice people.

Cons:

My room was warm, the window unit didn't get my room cold. It's too hot in South Beach in the summer to come in and not be cool down. The key was a bit much. The whole door and door knob. It feel like someone could have easily broken into my room. The floor had cracks in it. My ceiling fan stop working.
