If you're a backpacker, or just traveling on a budget, the Art Gardens Hotel is hard to beat for the price. From the outside it looks a bit nondescript, but inside the fixtures and fittings are all new. I stayed in a communal room with three bunk beds that slept six, although there were only three of us in it during my stay. The room has a modern, clean en suite bathroom with plenty of hot water. There are enough electrical outlets in the room for your accessories, as well as lockers for valuables, which are big enough for a laptop - just remember to bring your own padlock! There is also a communal kitchen in a Florida room, which has crockery and cookware, a sink, stove, a microwave, two fridge-freezers, some tables and chairs and a TV.The air conditioning is effective, too - no small consideration in Florida!
One caveat is that Wynwood is actually about a mile to the east, and there is nothing much to do in the immediate vicinity. However, there is a regular bus service on NW 12th Avenue, which is a block from the hotel, and the Santa Clara Metrorail station is about half a mile away. There is also a small grocery store on the opposite side of the street, whch is open until 11:30pm.
