I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location was great, close to the beach and restaurants, and the staff was patient, the room fell short with poor lighting, a damp smell, and noise issues on the ground floor. The dining options were very limited, and the facilities did not meet expectations.

The room was poorly lit and had a very damp smell upon entering. It was nothing like the pictures shown online, and stepping out of the shower left my feet dirtier.

The service was not too helpful overall, but the staff was patient. They insisted on charging a high fee of $100 for three nights.

The location was convenient, not right in the crowded area but still close to South Beach entertainment. It was helpful having it near Collins Avenue and the pool while being a block from the beach.

The hotel is in a good location, close enough to the Ocean Drive action spots but far enough for a peaceful sleep. The rooms were advertised as a three-bedroom layout but were actually divided into two sections, the living room and the bedroom. The service was nice overall, but we encountered some issues with overcharging for parking. The dining options were very limited with only basic offerings. The facilities were acceptable, but there were minor maintenance issues in some areas.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the sky loft room I stayed in was fabulous in size, unfortunately, it lacked privacy on the ground floor and was quite noisy. Stepping out of the shower only to find my feet dirtier was a bit off-putting.
