Three buildings all very old and in need of updates. Rooms are very, very small and smell of mold and mildew. The suites are regular rooms with microwave and sink and cost twice as much. Room keys did not work properly. Will not stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay here. My only request would be a dish towel in the kitchen as we cooked a few meals in the unit and with limited counter & sink space, it would’ve been nice to wash & dry to put it all away. I kept using paper towels to dry which felt wasteful. Otherwise thank you for such a lovely experience! Would definitely stay here again!

One of the worst hotel experiences I've ever had. We arrived early afternoon to check-in during which the computers we were down. When we came back to the hotel at around 8:30pm, we were told the computer system still wasn’t working and to sit in the lobby. After 30 minutes we were incredibly frustrated and after watching two other couples check in we asked why they were able to check in while we weren’t -- only then dud they suddenly get us a room. The room was dirty when we arrived -- the floor were wet (resulting in the floor boards to be warped and stick out which was painful if your bare foot hit it) as well as an odor. If it could not get worse, there was a cockroach in the shower (which I have photos of). We did not feel comfortable using the shower for the entire stay at the hotel I will certainly never stay at this hotel again and advise anyone I know staying in Miami to choose a different hotel.

Overall, the stay was nice. The three things to critique about this place is the mini snack bar that is located inside the corner of the room. Somebody forgot to check the quantity of the snacks when they were stocking the mini snack bar. Some of the items were not in the snack bar and I was very concerned about it because I didn’t wanted to get charge for a snack that I didn’t even eat. When I report it to the front desk. The lady said if you jot the missing snack items on the sheet that is on the snack bar and then give it to her, she will input it in the system. But as I was jotting the missing snack item to the sheet of paper, my wife got mad and she said, Why are we doing there job? I jot it half way and went back to the front desk and complained again. They came to the room and took everything that was in the snack bar, which they should have done in the first place. As they were taking the snacks out of the snack bar. They said, every room has different snacks in the snack bar and they apologized and walked out of the room. I mean I get that but the sheet on the snack bar in the room has the list of quantities of snacks. I just wanted to save my butt from getting charged of snacks that I didn’t eat. For the room that I was in, it was next to the pool bar and it was loud until late at midnight. My luck was not there when I booked place. Parking is pain in the butt. I paid 40 bucks for reserved parking for a day. The hotel does not have their own parking space.
