Great spot

Had a great room. We had a king water view room. Loved the seperate seating area and wet bar area. Had a slight mildew smell, but that’s being an old hotel. And it was only there. Only issues we had was the phones didn’t work. And I asked for more towels he said he would bring them up, never did. The public restroom, had no paper towels or hand dryers. Told front desk , manager said she would fix that. 2 hours later still nothing. The food was good. Raul was a great server at breakfast.

Room was really terrible .. kind of like staying in a white prison block that hasn't been cleaned very much... no decor, no views, no fixtures no carpet... honestly for that price it's probably the worst I've stayed... I know it's Miami Beach but I have stayed in rooms that are just a little bit more that are amazing.!!

This is the neatest vintage hotel I've stayed in. It needs some maintenance and repairs but mostly was in good shape for an older hotel. The area is very walkable. I loved the location!

I am very very disappointed with the service of this hotel and staff. The toilet doesn’t flush, the phone doesn’t work, my reservation was canceled, the receptionist couldn’t get I to contact with a supervisor. This was the worse experience of my life. Will not recommend, highly recommend a REFUND!!!!

Great location sound proof rooms! Excellent restaurant on site. The beds were comfortable and the room was quiet and clean! Walk out the front entrance right on Ocean Boulevard! This is an historic hotel right in the middle of the most lively street in Miami! The staff were helpful and courteous! We had a great couple of nights there and would go back next time we are sailing from Miami Cruise port!

Property was is a great location with a vibrant atmosphere.Hotel is very old and expect due to age, nothing over the top. Rooms are nice just old which is expected in a historic area of south beach. We stayed for one night prior to a cruise and the location was great to start the trip! If you are bougie this wouldn’t be the spot! If you are here for location snd a fun area of town this is your spot!
