Travel tips
A car is practical: the hotel is under a mile from Highway 27, and the main Miami attractions are roughly 15 to 19 km away. Dolphin Mall and Amelia Earhart Park are the closest larger destinations. Some guests report problems with room condition and noise, so check the room on arrival and raise any issues at the front desk right away.
What guests say
Positive reviews praise the value for money and friendly, helpful staff, including a kind late-night desk employee. Guests also like the practical suites with a kitchen and workspace. Negative reviews are sharply critical. They cite dirty rooms, a bad smell, broken furniture, and mould in an old air conditioner. One guest reported a smoke detector that sounded for hours without a fix, and others were put off by an indifferent front-desk attitude and unsavoury people around the property. Experiences appear inconsistent, and the 3.8 rating reflects that mix.
