Just Excellent Hotel Stay
Everything single thing from location, to price, to staff, cleanliness of Hotel, everything was just excellent. I just had 1 slight problem with an item that belonged to me, I thought was lost, but I later found it. Staff was accommodating and welcoming and I appreciated their help tremendously. Thank you sooo much for all of your hospitality. I am truly grateful. I look forward to spending a whole lot of vacations at this hotel

Short drive from hotel
Airport is really close, thats a bonus if you are just overnighting and need to catch an early flight. Its close enough that you can hear and see the planes outside, but inside your hotel room, you sleep like a baby, you dont hear a single thing! awesome!!

Courtyard by Marriott Miami
The hotel was advertised as if it's right next to the airport but we had to spend $25 on a taxi to get there. This was a quick overnight stop. Arrived 11:00pm and left at 6:00am

Pros: The room was comfortable and spacious. The Hotel staff friendly. The hotel very clean. Cons: The shuttle driver couldn't speak English! I wasn't 100% sure I was headed to the correct hotel, and 3 other people on the shuttle were brought to the hotel and found it was the wrong one. If the hotel is in the USA, everyone needs to have a command of the English language. This was the priciest hotel we had ever stayed in. Imagine our surprise when they wanted $8 for a continental breakfast and $10 for a full one. We went to McD! We got in very late and had not eaten. There were no restaurants within walking distance. There was a small convenience store in the lobby, but the prices were 4 or 5 times what they should have been. We went to bed hungry. I hate being nickeled and dimed to death.

Courtyard disaster
I have stayed in many Courtyards and Marriots however tthe location near Miami airport was worse by far. Courtyard is said to be of a higher scale than Fairfield Inn and usually it is but not at the 3location in question. The rooms were so-so not up to my Marriot expectations and the continental breakfast was terrible and highly overpriced 10.85. On a good note the stafff was quite helpful.

Great staff, cheaper alt to Resort
staff is what made this ordinary place feel enjoyable. we ordered in food since they don't have a real restaurant, and everything was great. few places highly recmd by staff in walking distance. clean, big enough rooms. enjoyed easy transportation to golf at Doral Resort for small tip/fee. free shuttle from airport was worth it, Doral Resort doesn't supply that! no complaints.

Good location if price is most important
I have stayed at a number of Courtyards in different parts of the country and found this location to be average. The first issue we encountered was not having a place for all members of my family to sleep. I was under the impression that a rollaway bed would be provided. It was not. The second problem occurred when my family showered and found that the tub did not drain properly and backed-up during the shower. After two days and two attempts, the drain was finally cleared. The manager did try to fix the accommodations issue with free breakfast. It was a good thing it was free. There were a number of food items that were stale. Had I paid I probably would have demanded my money back.

Comfy beds but not the lounge we wanted.
I expected a restaurant on site and a bar/lounge but there was neither. The delivery options were limited, so we had to drive to a local grill for food. It was an interesting experience as the area was quite run down and the service was very lacking and rude. The hotel had no advice as to recomend anyting and was not any help.

Short drive from hotel
The only food service in the hotel is a limited breakfast. The lounge is a tv and some chairs and couches. There was some restaurants a short drive away but in a sketchy neighborhood with bail bondsmen and so forth.
