Elevators were awful and the food was overpriced. Offer carved beef, they cut a piece of beef off a tough chunk of meat and put it on a grill, like eating shoe leather. Would not take cash.

Great hotel, family friendly
Highly recommend the hotel, extensive breakfast buffet options which were great. Staff are friendly and go above and beyond with service. Hotel decor had a Christmas theme and it was very pretty. The only downside is that it’s far away from south beach however easily accessible by the citi bikes to rent. 15 mins relax bike ride will get you there

Mediocre - but thats what they are aiming for
My wife and I stayed here for 1 night as we needed a cheap overnight stay in the area. This is a mid level basic family holiday hotel which caters for a lot of people at once - so there are certain draw backs like noise, number of people, mass catering etc. Its not on par with the bigger/better hotels on the beach but has a good location and served us well. Room was massive. Shower good. Finishings a bit sterile. Not as comfortbale as we'd have liked

Best Beach Hotel on Miami Beach
Love this hotel. Great location on beach and close to South Beach. Awesome breakfast and pool area. Resort fee was well worth it as they provide lounge chairs and umbrellas and beach towels on beach just a 1 minute walk from the back of the hotel. Absolutely stay here when in Miami

Too. With the Worst view in Miami Beach!
The hotel for the price was nice enough but I think we were given the worst view in Miami Beach, we were told this was the only room in the hotel with no view and we got it . We paid for an executive room with a city view and this is what we got!!

Sure, here’s the translation to English:
“The rooms were small and not particularly cozy, as well as cold. It was incredibly noisy, both from the road and the corridor. The pool closed very early, already at six in the evening. The parking was super expensive. However, the staff were very friendly, especially the person at breakfast.”

The man working in the lobby was not pleasant. We spent $1000 to stay there for 2 nights and was told to not lounge on the couch in lobby. We were exhausted and waiting to head to airport and already checked out.
