This property was in a great location and walking distance to most things rooms were kinda outdated we had three rooms. All three rooms were different. Some of the amenities did not work. Night staff the young man who checked us in was very nice. Provided great service and welcomed us even though we checked in after 2 AM due to delayed flight check in was easy and quick will definitely stay again.

This was an amazing hotel! Close enough to the bars to walk over, but far enough to get a good nights sleep. There was something wrong with our sink, so our bathroom kept flooding. Overall the staff was friendly and the hotel itself was clean and felt safe. 8/10!

White Claw seems like a new hotel in SOBE. The hotel room was clean. The furnitures are very unique. I personally do not like the lobby area. The seating area and the bar have too much things going on; It made me feel clustered. The hotel has a Mexican themed restaurant with outdoor seating. It's about 7 mins walk to the beach, 3-5 mins walk to Ocean Drive where the restaurants and clubs located. The hotel has snacks in the room for sale. Make sure you take a picture when you first enter and another picture when you leave to check out. I was charged about $3 for what seems to be a snack i never ate. Check out my Food Explora blogs for details about my time in South Beach.

Hotel was at a walking distance from Ocean Drive. Used public parking around the corner. Only hiccup was that on two occasions when I needed front desk assistance (including check in) there was only one staff available and we had to wait over 15 minutes for assistance.
