The hotel from outside is cute. But, it does not have its own staff. You check in next door at the Boulan hotel and that is where the rooftop pool is (so prepare for a journey (outside, two different elevators, and a bit of walking). The Uber app does not recognize the hotel. So if you’re getting dropped off there, you have to use the address of the Boulan as well. Bathroom has a glass door with a huge gap and zero, seriously, zero privacy. Short walk to the beach, you get two towels ans two chairs per room. Extra chairs or an umbrella were $22 each. Pool and pool area are small but ok for kids (but it’s mostly adults there). The front lobby is empty. Only had a mini frig that was packed with alcohol, some snacks in the room and no microwave.

Gorgeous property with a spectacular pool and good valet service. I wish they enforced quiet hours better; the front desk should at least attempt to ask and not wait for their security person. Would absolutely stay again, just on a higher floor.

AC was out until 3 PM the next day with no compensation. Woken up at 4 AM by loud employees outside, then again at 8 AM by housekeeping yelling down the hall—and they’ll open your door if there’s no DND sign. Got pink eye on the second night, likely from dirty pillowcases. Front desk gave me the wrong key three times. Staff was generally rude and unhelpful. Beds were uncomfortable. Only plus was the decor. Definitely not worth it.

The only good thing about this hotel is its location near Miami Beach. Everything else was a letdown. Every morning at 8am, staff knocked on my door asking to clean the room—way too early and incredibly disruptive for anyone trying to rest. On the day of checkout, the official time was 11am. At exactly 11:02am, while we were just making sure we had everything before leaving, a cleaning lady knocked on the door and started speaking to me in Spanish—which I don’t understand. It felt rude and rushed, and I’ve never experienced a hotel so eager to kick guests out right on the dot. The soundproofing is terrible. I could clearly hear conversations from the room next door, which made it hard to relax. Also, I booked through Expedia and was supposed to receive one free drink each day. But no one mentioned anything about it at check-in. I only found out how to get it during checkout. Turns out, it's only redeemable between 4–5pm at the bar—not exactly convenient. Overall, this was a frustrating experience, and I would not stay here again or recommend it to others.

The hotel was conveniently located near the beach and easy to walk around nearby. The service was decent and everyone was very friendly. Unfortunately, it wasn’t as comfortable as I was expecting for a 4 star hotel. On the way to the pool, the hallway smelled so bad we had to hold our noses the whole way. The hotel felt a little run down and poorly maintained (broken chairs, tiles).

This is a great, old school Miami hotel. I want to preface this by saying I had a wonderful stay, and if I am back in South Beach, these are the first people I am looking up. Since this hotel was probably 90 years old, some of the facilities are a little worn. The floor sags, there's a little bit of wear to the carpets, and they had a plastic tarp over a hole in the ceiling due to leakage. If that bothers you, go spend twice the price of your stay at the Marriott down the street. If you want a beautiful, clean hotel that looks about how it would have in the 1960s, with very helpful staff, a nice restaurant, stay at this hotel. I would say you would make a better choice than any of the real heavy hitters. These folks do a great job. Long live the South Beach hotel, and it is my privilege to give five stars.

It was great being a 6 min walk from the conference center, a 3 min walk from the beach, and next door to a CVS with non-tourist trap prices. The hotel is "combined" with another hotel so I couldn't figure out where the roof top pool is (needs better signs) then again why go to the pool when the beach is right there.

The hotel's location and cleanliness were great, but the housekeeping staff made our stay very unpleasant. Every morning at 7 AM for five days straight, they vacuumed the hallways and spoke loudly, despite me asking them twice to be quiet because our babies were sleeping. Nothing changed. On top of that, they knocked on our door between 7:30 and 8:00 AM every day trying to enter the room for housekeeping. We only got real rest after returning home. I would never stay here again.

Do yourself a favor and read this review.

Our stay was unacceptable. No A/C in the room when we got there. They allegedly fixed it and it went out again 3am. We moved rooms only to have hot water problems, a leaky sink and shower and we found a roach in the room. The staff was also very unfriendly. If I could give it negative stars, I would.

This hotel really could’ve be further from the truth than what it’s advertised as. So many things are unprofessional and will make you feel like you are not on vacation even though that’s what you paid for. Before booking I saw really great reviews which was reassuring but when we got there the hospitality and room conditions were very false from what they say. The first red flag should have been when we arrived at 11:30AM and the room was already ready within 10-15 mins, thought that was a good thing at the time but after seeing our room and noticing hair everywhere all over the floors, shower and bathroom, pee stained towels, and comforter stains it was clear that the beds were just remade and nothing was actually cleaned or replaced with new stuff. Second, I was told that the service fee for $182 was going to be ran through upon check via email, then after speaking with at the end of our stay at check out but after

The bed was comfortable but everything else was bad. Room was leaking so giant puddle in the floor. Floors were slippery and almost fell a doz n times. Bathroom door does not close and is see through so you can see, hear and smell everything (so gross). Shower had fake eyelashes on the floor so not clean. Mold in the window. Dust in the bathroom. Toilet did not reliably flush. Restaurant was way overpriced ($8 for a small dab of potato’s) front desk girl was so rude and unhelpful. I found other guests trying to find the elevator cause she didn’t explain where it was. Saw another guy slip and fall on the terrible floors in the public areas. She just told us our room is next door. When I ask where (since there’s lots of places next door) she just repeated next door. I said I do t know where that is and she just stared at me. Wandered around until I found it. There is no parking lot and no email to explain the parking situation. You have to park somewhere, check in, then move your car to valet which is $45 everytime you want your car so you are stranded there unless you want to break the bank. Just aweful aweful all around. Also valet was watching video on his phone and ignoring us when we tried to check the car
