The hotel was great. We got a really cheap upgrade after bidding which actually gave us a lot
more space. Staff were friendly, the location was close to the beach, the rooms were clean and spacious.
If I was to really look at finding something that could be improved, I’d say the minibar was quite expensive but all of Miami felt expensive at parts and I am sure it’s in comparison with competitors. I’d be more inclined to use the minibar if prices were reasonable in my eyes.

Very good location for us since relatively quiet location one block off Collins Ave. It is 10-20 minute walk to nearby parks and venues like Botanical Gardens, Collins Park and 2 blocks from the beach. Our king bed suite very roomy and comfortable with sofa, dining table and chairs and kitchenette. Staff was helpful and pleasant. Would stay again.
