No coffee cups, shower door off and falling. Cleanliness was poor, the worst I've seen in years. Room entrance cards kept failing..then needed to go downstair across to another building to get a new card. The bicycles were old, and not in good condition and the chain kept falling off. A safety issue if pedaling in middle of street or far from hotel.

DO NOT STAY HERE,

This hotel lied about their rooms online and in person. They did a classic bait and switch leaving me with no place to stay when in Miami Beach. I reserved a room with 2 beds and was given a room with one. Did not receive what I paid for. Hotel is old and smelly. Overpriced and mismanaged.

The location does not dissapoint, and neither does the restaurant on the property. Despite parts of the hotel looking very old, the rooms themselves are very nice. They have an expresso machine in the room which is a nice touch. There is an odd setup with the two buildings, where one building is dissconnected from the lobby, but connects to the pool. If you are in building 2 you will have to enter the hotel via an ice cream store. Also the pool area is very small. Even though the setup is odd, you are right in the middle of everything. It makes it a great choice if your goal is to visit the many clubs and restaurants in South Beach.
