The room was very spacious, modern, and spotlessly clean. The location is excellent, right in front of the beach. The hotel provides free bicycles and beach chairs, which is a great bonus. Both swimming pools were excellent, and breakfast, served in one of the hotel’s restaurants through a daily voucher per person, was of good quality. In addition, the food in all three hotel restaurants was consistently very good.

Although breakfast was good, the daily voucher was never enough to cover a dish and a drink, which always meant paying an extra to complete the meal.

The rooms were very small, the air conditioning turned on and off constantly all night which made it hard to sleep. The shower was very tiny.

Large room with amazing views across Ocean Drive and South Beach. Most staff were very helpful and addressed most issues quickly. The restaurant on the ground floor was very good.

Housekeeping were generally OK but cleanliness was not good enough and almost every day there was something missing or wrong. Towels, floor mats, coffee pods, coffee cups, etc something every day.

Location was amazing!

We arrived & checked in with a short delay, however when we got back to our room after an evening out, we couldn’t open our door, we went to Reception and was told we weren’t allowed in our room until we paid for the room, we were embarrassed in reception and felt like we were untrustworthy people, why not take money on arrival? Our room was not cleaned a fake nail and dirty marks on the sheets. When we arrived back on our second day our room had been cleaned but the door was left open. Really disappointing stay.

No elevator someone randomly opened the room door while I was in the shower my friend was awake and said hey they didn’t announce anything of house keeping or guest service, just slammed the door shut who knows who it was definitely a safety hazard to consider, on the return from a dinner got approached by staff demanding to ask if we were guest in the hotel and were confrontational asking for room number when I said no ask the concierge front desk they called security what an unpleasant situation don’t recommend stay away many other places to go

All bad stay away many places to choose from if you value safety and no judgement

Excellent location on beach, great food at the onsite restaurants. Great customer service from everyone. Pet friendly, even at the outside dining areas!

Room was very small and not the quality I expected for the price we paid. Bed frame was smaller than bed so you hit your shins on the corner. Rust on edge of mirror.

The location is very good. The hotel is close to the beach, many restaurants, shops, and transportation services.

When we checked in, we were told that this hotel has 3 or 4 buildings and our room is in the oldest one. We didn’t understand why we were placed there, considering that at the time of check-in there were even available rooms in the other buildings listed on Booking.com, which were at lower prices. The room was extremely small – the entrance door was just inches from the bed, and the bathroom door situation was similar. All we could see from the window were bars and a concrete wall of the neighboring building, which was less than a meter away. It was impossible to tell whether it was day or night in the room due to the lack of light. The air conditioning was incredibly loud and blew directly onto one of the beds, meaning it couldn't be used while we were in the room. We asked to be moved to another, normal room considering that we paid a substantial amount not for a cell with bars, but for a hotel room. The response from the reception was that since we made our reservation through Booking.com, they couldn't change it, but if we paid extra, they could accommodate us in another, renovated building. It is inappropriate that these details regarding the multiple buildings are not shared when making the reservation, as the conditions can ruin the entire experience for tourists in the city. The photos on Booking.com do not reflect the reality of these rooms at all.

The location is good

We stayed at this hotel for three nights, and unfortunately the experience was very disappointing. On the first morning, we discovered multiple dried blood stains on the bed sheets. We immediately went down to the front desk to ask for help. The staff apologized, said they would replace the sheets, and gave us a voucher for a free breakfast as compensation. However, the next morning we were shocked to find that the new sheets were also stained with blood. When we reported this to the manager, Eric, instead of taking responsibility or showing concern, he accused us of complaining too much and cancelled our breakfast voucher. His attitude was extremely rude, dismissive, and unkind. Finding blood stains on bed sheets is unacceptable under any circumstances, especially twice in a row. What made the situation even worse was the manager’s behavior, which left us feeling blamed and disrespected rather than taken seriously. We left the hotel with very bad feelings and would not recommend staying here, mainly due to poor hygiene standards and unprofessional customer service.

Grear location!

The hotel was very nice. The drawback is the constant harassment we received and the deception of the 20 percent service charge. We considered it a tip and the staff does not and border lined harassed us for more on top of the 20 percent which we sometimes gladly gave. The first dinner we had there it was not explained to us and so we ended up tipping 45 percent if you include the service charge.

100% stayed for the view.

The room was dirty when we checked in; there were no towels, and the bathroom and floor were dirty ( still had hair and a contact in the sink) This was more than one time. The next day, housekeeping left us two hand towels, and that was it. Waking up at 5 am, vacuuming, losing power for 8 hours, and so on, the 10k room you're paying for is only for the view. Night shift front desk are the best staff we could ever ask for.

I am requesting a refund due to the condition of the property. Upon arrival, the home was unkempt and not properly cleaned. There were visible stains on the sofa, hair in the bed and sink, and overall the cleanliness was unacceptable. Additionally, I have experienced what appear to be bed bug bites following my stay. I am very disappointed with the lack of cleanliness and customer service. I would appreciate a prompt resolution to this matter.

An excellent location. Moreover, although located on Ocean Drive, the hotel benefits from quiet rooms.

The check-in procedure left much to be desired. I was not given the breakfast vouchers; only after three days, when I explicitly asked for them (as they were included in the price), did I receive them and was able to have breakfast. However, I would not recommend it: you may wait even 40 minutes for a coffee. The service staff are rather lacking in attentiveness. There is also a swimming pool on the rooftop of one of the buildings, but this information was not provided to me at check-in either. My conclusion is this: inform yourself about the hotel’s facilities, as you will not receive this information at check-in.
