Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is in a prime location on South Beach, making it easy to access the beach and enjoy the surrounding area. The rooms are nicely furnished and include balconies and bathtubs, with the added bonus of an upstairs terrace. However, communication with staff, especially during the night shift, can be challenging and may require contacting a manager for assistance.
The hotel is situated in a prime area on South Beach, close to the beach and restaurants, making it a convenient spot. Although the rooms lack a view and fresh towels on the balcony, they are comfortable overall. The service can be improved, especially during the night shift with language barriers and delays in providing essentials like face towels. The location is excellent for exploring the vibrant surroundings, including events like Pride. Unfortunately, dining is not included, limiting options for gourmet products. On the bright side, facilities like car hire and shuttle services are available.
I stayed at the hotel on South Beach, and it was close to everything you need in South Beach. The rooms were spacious, especially with the upstairs terrace, but sadly on level 1 where our balcony had zero view. The bathroom had plenty of space, which was a plus. However, the service, especially during the night shift, was lacking as there were issues with getting face towels and communication barriers with the housekeepers. The location was still great for accessing all the events for Pride and being pretty close to the beach. Unfortunately, the dining only offered smoked salmon bagels, which was limited. Overall, a mixed experience with some positives and negatives.
The hotel is situated in a bustling area right on South Beach, ideal for those looking to experience the vibrant vibe of the neighborhood. The rooms offer nice furnishings, though lacking a gym facility. While the bathroom is spacious and well-equipped with fresh towels, being on level 1 might not suit everyone. The service is attentive, especially during the night shift, despite some language barriers with housekeepers. The location is excellent for beach lovers but can be pricey due to its popularity. Dining options are not inclusive, undermining the overall value for money. However, the facilities meet the basic needs for a comfortable stay.
The hotel had a spacious balcony and terrace with a bathroom on level 1. The rooms lacked face towels and communication with housekeeping was a challenge during the night shift. The location was excellent, right on South Beach with everything close by on Ocean Drive. The dining experience did not include gyu-don dishes. Despite some service issues, the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel is located on South Beach, near the beach and restaurants. It's in a great area, close to everything, but the whole neighborhood is over-priced due to its popularity. The rooms are on level 1 with a balcony, but unfortunately, our balcony had zero view. The towels in the rooms were clean.
I stayed at a hotel in a great area in South Beach. The rooms had nice furnitures and a terrace but unfortunately, my balcony had zero view. While the service was somewhat lacking, with a delay in getting essentials like face towels and language barriers with the housekeepers, the night shift staff were particularly unhelpful. The location was convenient, not on the main noisy avenue but still close to the beautiful South Beach. The dining didn't include meals but offered eclectic British dishes. Overall, a mixed experience with both positive and negative points.
The hotel is in a prime location on South Beach, close to the beach and restaurants. The rooms are well-furnished but lacked a balcony and a desk, offering a good value for money. The night shift service was not ideal, with difficulties in communication and delayed towel delivery.
The hotel is in a prime location, just a block away from South Beach and nestled in a great area with easy access to the beach. The rooms are spacious with some featuring balconies, though the lack of a desk might be a drawback for some. The service, especially during the night shift, could be improved as there were challenges with communication among housekeepers. The dining options are not included but offer delicious glazed cakes. Overall, the facilities are convenient and suitable for a comfortable stay.
