This was the perfect spot for a getaway for the weekend. Located in the heart of the night life. Multiple restaurants right below. Which I recommend. One a small issue...no wash cloths or multiple towels in the room if needed. 9/10

This was the dirtiest hotel I could’ve ever stayed. The bathroom mirror had molds and the shower head. The comforter looked dirty. The staff members never answered their phones and the tv could not connect to my iPad. The soap smell like it has mold as well.

Hotel doesnt have parking, mandatory valet parking for $43 each day. The property is near everything in Miami Beach, but it is not clean, (i found a used tampon in the bathroom and it was definitely not mine) the hotel doesnt have coffee or microwave, so its a "you get what you pay for" kind of hotel.

Hello Dina, thank you for your review. We are a historic Art Deco hotel, so we don’t have a garage or parking lot, but valet service is offered as an optional amenity through a third party. Our rooms are cleaned prior to each guests arrival, so our housekeeping staff would not confirm a room in that condition. We appreciate your feedback.

Hello Alberto, thank you for your review. Since we are a historic Art Deco hotel, despite the upkeep and renovations, it may take a moment for the hot water to adjust. Leaving the tap open for a minute or two will typically solve the problem. Our apologies for any inconvenience. We appreciate your review.

The location was nice. Parking to check in was awful. The room smelled so bad I stayed out more than in the room and it wasn't because of the entertainment. I was visiting for a funeral.However valet guy and front desk staff were great. Property needs to drop rates or educate the cleaning staff. I think I deserve a partial refund.

This property was in a convenient location on Collins Street. The hotel is a bit understaffed but if you don’t mind getting your own towels it’s just fine. Beware of a lengthy check in process though. The rooms all get cleaned at once and it creates a back up once 3 pm comes around. This wait tends to take an hour to an hour half.

The valet attendent was very very rude for no reason. I've been in the hotel field for almost 25 years and have never been treated in that way. I stay at your hotel every time i come to Miami and i normally talk about the hotel to people come to visit Miami for the first time. Have your valet staff treat customers better

The cleanliness of the floors needs to be improved. The floor in our room was filthy with dust and dirt. The hall rugs were beyond filthy - a cotton swab, along with other debris, laid on the floor for the entire week we were there. The level of cleanliness of everything else was satisfactory, but the floors need addressed. The location was excellent. The pool was immaculate. Staff were pleasant enough, but the floors really take away from the property. It is doubtful I would recommend this property. I am sorry.

Hello Shakina thank you for your review. Please keep in mind that our staff assist guests frequently and are busier around 11 AM and 3 PM when guests are checking in/out. We provide toiletries based on the number of guests booked in the room, but guests can request additional items. Unfortunately, the magnetic stripe on the key cards are sensitive and tend to deactivate when exposed to heat, or placed next to cell phones and credit cards. Our apologies for any inconvenience.
