I didn’t have great expectations. I was expecting for the price ($60-$70 than redidence inns in the area) something clean but plain. I was pleasantly surprised. As soon as I opened the door I saw (real) wood stairs and flooring, corridors with nice framed prints on the walls that reminded me of a New England home. The decor of the room was fresh and trendy, with nice details like the matching turquoise microwave and fridge with a retro vibe reminiscent of “Happy Days” or the nice vase with dry lavender flowers and wood decor in the bathroom. There’s a variety of nice restaurants a short walk away and the Coral Gables trolley stops almost in front of tre Hotel. Will come back for sure!
