"We would honestly cannot wait to come back. It is in one of the best spots location wise, it’s right on the beach and it was overall just a wonderful property. Staff was all very kind as well. "

"A VERY NICE place overall! I am a tough grader, so I would put this in the 4.4 to 4.7 range if I could. Pool deck and facilities are very nice. But horribly crowded in peak times, weekend, etc. The old fight for a pool chair at 6:30 AM stuff just gets old, especially at a place that’s supposed to be higher end. Dominated by younger couples with small kids, mixed in with the business/conference types. Good mix of people if that’s something you prioritize. Besides the crowded pool, my biggest complaint would be the $30 cocktails. I know it’s Miami Beach but cmon. Great walkable location with access to the boardwalk and lively shopping/restaurant areas across the street. Close enough to walk straight to the action, but not quite in the middle of clubbing insanity! I would probably splurge a little extra and go for a boutique place before I go back, but I would go back. Again, CROWDED pool and my kids were just a little too old for the pool noodle scene. "

"Horrible experience with hotel and valet staff , my truck got towed while valet had my truck in their possession.old and out dated rooms. Would never go back "

"The property was ok. Our original room was unacceptable given it was off the stair well, but they did relocate us up one request. The elevator was out of service for 1 day. The pool was one of the better amenities though the music is at a higher level that would be more party than read a book. The location is right in the middle of the strip, so if you prefer a more quiet vacation, I would look elsewhere. It was a good value compared to other options we looked at … so you get what you pay for."

"Walked into a not-so-friendly front desk staff member, and come to find out my room was on the fifth floor and the elevator was broken. From what I’ve heard, it’s been broken for a long time, so be prepared for a broken elevator if you stay here. Someone carried our bags up for us due to the non working elevator. My suitcase was scuffed all over from them dragging it up the stairs. The walls are paper thin and you can hear everything and anything going on. Due to this, be prepared for poor sleep if you’re not a heavy heavy sleeper. The only benefit of staying here is being directly on ocean drive and right across from south beach. We also stayed in a room that had a “bay view” and my only view was the buildings next to us. Although I could barely even see the building through the dirt and grime stained window panes. As a result of my experience, I do not think I would stay here again. "

"The staff were friendly. It’s the perfect location, super close to the beach and many restaurants, coffee spots, everything you need. The room set up was a little odd, like a large dresser poorly placed and the closet door that is a mirror in the entrance that will break if someone opens the door with the it open. The bathroom is outdated. But I would definitely stay there again for the location and price. "

"This is a nice spot with a good vibe, the room i stayed in was a bit old with unfinish repairs visible in the room."

"Na"

"For the price, not worth it."
