I stayed at this ESA property for about three weeks in October while I was house hunting. I was on the seventh (and top floor). Room was nice sized, with no surprises in the room furnishings.
PROS:
Convenient location. Half block to Miracle Mile shops/restaurants (including Ross) in one direction; a few blocks in the other direction to a large mall with Marshall's, Nordstrom Rack, etc., and Hooters (for the men), Winn Dixie. Sears and Avis/Budget Rental Car right across the street. Guests therefore were a mix of business travelers for extended stays or foreign tourists on shopping sprees.
Helpful Staff. Since I made my reservation back in the spring before they started to charge for parking, Adriana honored the terms of my existing reservation and did not charge me for parking. (Free parking was one of the main reasons I booked here.) When I had to extend my stay for a few more days, Cyndia was able to secure my room and even apply a small discretionary discount to the now-higher rate.
CONS:
Noisy. Even though I was on the top floor, it often sounded like people were running around overhead. Also, walls are on the thin side, so you can hear the screaming infants at all hours of the day/night. The doors are the type that slam shut automatically, adding to the noise. In addition, there is a huge building being constructed behind the parking lot, and the work crews started around 7 am or so, including Saturdays, so no chance of sleeping in.
Pay parking. As I mentioned, they charge 5 dollars a day to park (though they honored my long-established reservation). This can add up if you are staying for a long time.
Conclusion: If I need to stay in Coral Gables for an extended period, still would consider them again.
