Travel tips

Lincoln Road Mall is a block away and the beach is about a 4-minute walk, so much of a stay can be done on foot. The Bass and Miami Beach Botanical Garden are under 700 m away. Mainland sights such as Pérez Art Museum Miami, Wynwood Walls and Vizcaya are 5.7 to 9.6 km away and need a car or rideshare. Some guests find the rooms and hallways dated and the breakfast pricey, so check current room details and rates before booking.
