Clifton Hotel - A Cambean Earth Hotel

Well-done rehab on a plain, efficient older art-deco hotel. Very clean, well-maintained, nothing fancy, but did everything I needed it to do.

Stay somewhere else! There are plenty of clean and affordable hotels in the area. The room was booked through a third party vendor for a double occupancy that was never arranged by the Clifton. Our group was told we were booked for a single occupancy room and that they were booked solid. As a result our group was given a “suite” (I use this term loosely). Although the hotel was recently renovated, it was poorly done. The walls are extremely thin; the lighting was atrocious (when the light decided to work. It would go on and off at its leisure), our phone did not work, and the curtain’s were falling apart…all of this in our “SUITE”! The staff was made up of a front desk attendant who took it upon herself to pocket money meant for a reservation and bar tenders who barely spoke English and didn’t know what limes were (really). It's as if they pulled random people off the street to work here. All in all this hotel equates to an Ikea decorated Howard Johnson’s. Stay somewhere else. And BUYER BEWARE, do not pay for any VIP party packages through the front desk as they will flat out rob you.

Pros: - a bar downstairs - clean and neat - they recycle - very courteous and friendly staff - I had a fridge, a TV, an alarm clock with iPod dock, an ironer, and a hair dryer in my room - 1 block away from the beach and all the restaurants on the Ocean Drive - everything is within walking distance from the hotel - you have an access to the swimming pool at the nearby hotel Cons: - rooms are very small - lots of noise from the bar (music was too loud) and if you are not lucky, from the neighbors - no coffee machine/cups, etc. - windows are overlooking either the windows of the hotel right next to it, or the parking garage (4 fl) - lights are too dark to read, but that doesn't really matter because you are not there for that reason

Ideal location, friendly staff, and clean rooms. Couldn't ask for anything more.

If you are an African American, and you love partying during the weekend this is the best deal. The staff is cool and fun loving. Only it's too noisy at least on the first floor, so don't expect any sleep before 2 am.

the location was good,the clerk behind the desk was a complete [*] and is you can see it's months later and I'm still upset.I tryed to ask him a question and he was on the phone so i stood in front of the deck for 5 minutes being ignored while he keet talking on the phone like i wasn't even there I know 5 miutes doesn;t sound like a long time but when ssomeone is standing a few feet away for you and your ignroning them it is.And if I needed interrupt the call there is no telling how long I would have waited absolutely the worst custer service I've every had

Walking distance to everything which was great, including a bus to the airport- MUCH cheaper than a cab. The rooms were small, and the hotel had a bar that was loud at night. But we spent most of our time on the beach or out anyway, so it didn't really bother us. Nice place to stay.

i expected something more for a 4 stars hotel. good location, small room, too small closet (we didn't know where to put our clothes). too loud at night (till 12am). the cleaning woman has never cleaned the floor.

The hotel was nice and quiet. Superb location and friendly stall. No pool but a 5 minute walk to the beach was better than a pool. Several restaurants around the corner.

The staff was not welcoming or friendly at first, but they warmed up a bit after a while. [...]They charge a $15/night "resort fee" [...]. You pay this fee after your stay. The room itself was pretty good though. The red LED lighting made it fun to be in, and it seemed pretty clean. [...] I will never go back.
