When we arrived, I was having a really rough morning, and the hotel staff was very nice and accommodating and upgraded our room for free. We stayed in a room that is next door to the main hotel. There is no elevator, but a bell man did take our bags up for us. The room was big, simple and nice.... More

Was quite worried after I booked the hotel then read some of the reviews however this was a perfect hotel for what we needed. We stayed for 14 nights in one of the studio rooms which included a kitchen, it was located in an annex building on Ocean drive. We originally booked a regular guest room but on our arrival... More

I really liked this hotel. Was a perfect location on Ocean Drive, just opposite the beach and far enough from the noise of the bars. The staff on reception were always happy to help us and greeted us each time we came and went. A tea / coffee maker in the room would have topped it off perfectly.

The hotel is very scruffy and unattractive from the outside. Registering was ok, the reception area was not very clean and very strong air fresheners were in use. To enter your room you had to go through the cafe next door which was when we arrived quite full with people eating. The room was very dark because of the wood... More

I would rate the hotel a 2 1/2 star instead of three star. The first room they assigned us on the first floor ,one of the windows in the room, didn't lock. However, I noticed the front desk and they were very accomdating and they gave us a different room. The hotel is in a great location on Ocean Drive... More

This hotel is old, overpriced ,the complimentary breakfast is horrible and the staff is nonchalant not to say rude. The bedroom we stayed in was so small and the Tv was even smaller. The only and only great thing about this hotel is the location and complimentary beach towels.

Wife and I stayed here for 4 nights. Good news is that it has a great location, on Ocean Drive, but a couple blocks from all of the noise. Rooms are spacious as well. However, that is all that is positive. No amenities, awful complimentary breakfast, and indifferent service. Much better choices are on Collins ave.

My friends and I just went to Miami for a long girls weekend and this hotel made it very difficult to have a good time. When we checked in, the man at the front desk lectured us about bringing 4 girls instead of 2 (since we signed up for 2 not knowing the full amount of girls that we coming).... More

Nice welcome but don't expect luxury. 'Bonanza' style basic room 2 big comfy beds. Walk through restaurant didn't bother us. Good location didn't have breakfast....We always eat at The Front Porch at the opposite end of Ocean Drive...best breakfast!!! Just hire some bikes or meander along.
