Drs Visit to Miami

As I Have to travel to Miami every 6 months for a check up with Dr. Murray on Red Rd. I needed a hotel within a short distance of his office. I was pleased with the service and especially the staff. Will be rebooking for future visits...

Nice place

I was pleased with the accommodations & the staff was very helpful & pleasant. I've stayed at nicer places, but this was more than adequate for the location near UM & the price. I liked that there was a refrigerator & microwave in the room. Nice pool.

difficult three nights in coral gables, fl

We were put in a handicapped room, so our clothes were dragging on the floor in the "closet", and the bathroom floor was always wet from the handicapped shower. Had to call security the first night because of noise. The carpet was so dirty, our white socks were black within five minutes. Shower water was only warm. The lights in the bathroom shorted out on the second morning, so we had to get ready in the dark. Called the front desk right away, but when we returned at the end of the day, they still weren't fixed and we had to call again. Phone in room didn't work throughout the three days. The accounting department said they would send us an e-mail itemizing our restaurant charges because their computers were down when we checked out. They never did.

Do not stay in that hotel no matter what!

The location is good but it is not worthy to stay in a dirty hotel like this. We have bed bugs in our room. The carpet at the entire hotel smells bad. No hot water on the lavatory. On the shower, yes. The staff was nice. My daughter and I stayed for two nights and we couldn't stand the smell of the carpet. We frick-out with the bed bugs. I will never go there again.
