Small, neat and tidy. Very close to the beach with seating and umbrellas. Walkable to food and all of Ocean Dr. Perfect for everything we did in Miami Beach.

The staff at the front desk were just lovely. I could tell that they were always looking to make sure that we had what we needed and and were available to us at any time. I was really surprised by the restaurant the food was lovely it was a beautiful breakfast/brunch. I would definitely come back and stay in this hotel again.

Restaurant service was terrible. Food was good, when server did come over was very polite and well spoken but it took forever to get noticed, forever to get food and ran out of water multiple times without checking if we needed refills.
Roach in bathroom.

The property is just what you would expect for this area, the room was small but as are most rooms on this area. We really liked how quiet it was yet close to all the action and the walk to the beach was so easy and great amenities to have two chairs and an umbrella included in the room rental. Staff was so kind!

This hotel is just ok. The good things are that the room is quiet, it's a block to the beach, and in a great neighborhood. The bad part is that the room was an old, concrete box. Small, cramped and claustrophobic. Luckily, we had beautiful weather and so only had to be in the room to sleep.

Hotel location was perfect. Checkin was quick. Room was clean and bathroom well appointed.
Coffee machine was awesome.
We really liked the ability to use chaises and umbrella at the beach.
The amenities were supposed to include a cocktail… instead we got a 3oz pour of cheap Prosecco.

They charge an exorbitant resort fee and calling this a “resort” is a huge stretch of the imagination. This is basically a Motel 6 on South Beach.

The location is marvellous, rooms are ok. However, I have found (only when I checked in) the there is a "resort fee" of $35 plus tax per night that too me felt like a rip off as they claim it includes things such as WiF, fruit in the lobby (never found a fruit in 3 days), water stations in the lobby, beach towels, plus rather useless things such as free tour of the hotel, etc. Frankly I would have preferred that these "amenities" were included in the room cost ... I find it an irritating to use such a trick to keep apparent room cost lower.
