No good

We arrived to the hotel at midnight and got into our room shortly after. The smelt awful! But it was late and thought maybe we’d get use to it. The bathroom floor and toilet seat had condensation all over it. What we thought were cold sheets, were damp sheets. We woke up with hardly any sleep and never getting use to the smell. Then we noticed the black mold in the ceiling and air vent. So far I’ve only got back $35 of the $80 we paid in resort fees and none of my $600 for the two nights we booked. We were after 7.5 hours. It’s been 12 days since the stay. Oh! And our clothes smelt awful!!!!

We were in a 10 bank beds room with 1 shower/toilet. You need to be patient on morning before to be able to take shower. And the price is really expensive for what is it. I would not recommend unless you have no choice

The location is very good—close to everything yet in a very quiet area, making it easy to relax. The hotel itself was nice, but our experience was somewhat disappointing. We were two couples, and although we booked the same room category, our rooms were quite different. Our friends’ room was spacious and included amenities like a minibar and an air purifier, while ours was much smaller and lacked both. This inconsistency in room quality was unexpected and impacted our stay.

Center of the happening part of Miami and still this place was so quiet & safe! No elevators though that was the only problem because we brought little kids with us. The Full size bunk beds were soooo comfortable and authentic! We had 4 full size beds in one room and a queen bed in another!

Good from far but far from good

There was a very strong musky smell. It smelled like the hotel was trying to cover it up with sandlewood. The walls were very very wavy which made me think that there was water damage and that was the smell I was getting. The room was clean but very humid even with the A/C on very low, which made the floor really tacky when walking on it. Very unpleasant.

Building had a smell

We just stayed here for 4 nights. Service/staff was excellent. Great location, close to beach and the main attractions, hustle and bustle. The building/ room had a smell that we could have been without and we received a towel that was stained. All and all not the worst place.

I gave the place a fair chance but overall we were not satisfied. There’s a need for renovation and cleaning. The walls were bubbled from water damage and it smelled moldy. There was also no elevator and the staff didn’t offer at all to help with luggage. One of the guests that I traveled with has mobility issues. Lastly we have repeatedly attempted to contact the hotel because of an item left behind and we’ve received no response.
