Great location and amenities

The hotel and amenities were fantastic. Location was great. Rooms need to be more upgraded with smart TVs and phone plugs. Housekeeping staff were all fantastic and above and beyond. Front desk staff were very unfriendly, didn’t welcome or smile, and unwilling to help. Exact opposite of the housekeeping staff who smiled

This place was fabulous. Check in was easy, efficient and welcoming. The staff is so freakin nice!!! I’ve stayed many places in South Beach… this one has a kitchen in it, allows dogs, and separate bedroom area. Def worth the upgrade! The beach is within walking distance, CVS and Joe and the Juice just around the corner. I would recommend this place!!

Mildew and Moldy rooms no working plumbing

The hotel had no parking, while waiting in line to check in there were multiple people complaining of the plumbing not working, upon checking in and getting in our room it smelled like mold and Mildew, we had no working AC and they had a portable AC unit with a tube pulling air from outside, we had to go to the front desk every time we wanted to use the toilet for them to come fix the toilet, the showers flood the bathroom which is probably causing the mold and mildew smell, no outlets in the rooms to plug in phone chargers etc. AVOID THIS HOTEL AT ALL COST

I've stayed at this hotel before and had a great experience, which is why I decided to return. Unfortunately, this time was very different. The room had an unpleasant smell, there was a bug on the bed, the remote control didn't work, and none of the lights in the room worked properly. I was really surprised, because my first stay was amazing. I hope management takes care of these issues, since this place has potential, but my recent stay was disappointing.
