“This place sucks!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed May 25, 2012 via mobile

The room is basic. Management is beyond stupid and inconsiderate. The rooms have no door handles, microwave handles, bathroom towel and wash cloth handles are missing. It smells like mildew throughout basic condo. Had parking decal in windshield and still got a big orange sticker on the window that stayed on my car until their maintenance man came to use paint remover to remove. Would be better off staying at a motel 6 in the hood.

“Worst Decision .. Should have believed the reviews!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed March 28, 2012

This is not a hotel but a condo complex that rents out vacant units so if you are looking for bare-bones this is the place for you. To start with the room is tiny and cleanish but not very well taken care of. The floor in the bathroom had water damage that had turned to mold. The tub, counter-top, and sink in the bathroom all had some sort of mildew build up. To top it all off as we were getting ready to leave we discovered dried/washed blood on the sheets!

Beware of the fine print when booking. Parking has to be arraigned prior to checking in at $20/day. There is a $40 towel/linen charge, even though there isn't a housekeeping service. If you leave any trash in the room you will be charge an additional $100 as a clean up fee.

The office that handles the short-term renting out of these condos is only open until 6pm Mon-Fri and the staff that mans the front desk is separate from them and are useless if you have questions.

Over-all, just save yourself the trouble and book a real hotel if you are going to stay in Miami.

“Believe the reviews on this hotel,,,terrible”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed March 9, 2012

We stayed here for 2 days, that was 2 days too long! When we arrived check-in was from 3 to 5, and if you arrive after that there is an envelope at the desk with your keys in it. When we got to our room, right away we knew we would be regretting it. The room was too big for the furniture there, no decorations and it included a small kichenette. The walls were in need of painting, the bathroom a good cleaning. The tile floor had been retiled over and whoever did it, did a terrible job, we could see the old tiles beneath them. The curtain in the windows were old and were dragging on the floor, and were two thirds off the cheap holder. I had to get a chair and tried to fix them so at least they could close. The closet door was off its hinges, the door for the hotwater tank had rust spots all over it. The kichenette was small and dirty, I would not of cooked something on it(we were not anyways). Oh they have no maid service unless you pay extra, we found that out the next day when we got back and the room was not done, so hang your towel.
They will retain money from your credit card or from your $250 deposit if you do not throw your garbage in a garbage chute at the other end of the hall, and it took me some time to find it. Again on the day we were leaving we found this out on a paper they left on the floor, guess they were hoping to charge us that.
The first night we were waiting for a ride in the lobby around 9pm and 2 females were at the security desk and wanted their paid reservation room which they presented the proof, but the hotel had lost it and they were now full. They were told straight foward that it was their tough luck and find another hotel, eventho they had already paid. Due to being the Miami boatshow week all hotels were booked except for the +$500 a night, so my wife got involved ( was a travel agent) so she told the 2 women to call Amex(who they used to reserve the room) and demand that they find them another hotel and Amex pay for it, which happened.
Usually we look at reviews and sometime don't beleive everything, but this time it was all true.
We took many pics of the room, and were going to post them, but decided not too.

Room Tip: I would not be able to even if I wanted to.

“Caveat Emptor”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed February 24, 2012

Buyer beware. This is not a hotel. It is a bunch of unsold condos- mostly studios that are being rented out as hotel rooms. There is no maid service (unless you want to pay extra)There is no front desk. There is no conceriege. There is no room service. There is no wifi. There is no phone. Parking is $20.00/day extra. If you do not take out the trash when you leave there is a heafty fine. The kitchenetts are not outfitted properly. We had 2 coffee cups, but no coffee maker, and only one glass. We had a maybe 24" TV that got only three channels, only one in english. Bedding is crappy. Fit and finish is the worst I have ever seen. The craftsmanship is so bad I am surprised they sold any units.

On the plus side, the balcony was nice, and the view was pretty good. Just know what you are giving up.

Room Tip: There is a parking garage across the street behind Brickell Bay that has $8.00 parking, but with no...

“Fail.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed February 12, 2012 via mobile

Stayed here last night after having been on a cruise- all I wanted to do was call home. No wifi? No phone?! Went down to the front desk to ask to use the phone, the gentleman at the desk said absolutely what's the number? I needed to call Canada using a phone card- he says they can't call 1-800 numbers. Is that not the concept? Free calls? Apparently not, went to the Marriott across the street to use a pay phone - for free. Bathroom only had 1 towel. Hair everywhere, scuffed, dirty walls, closet door off the track, no Internet, missing closet door handle, dishes and cutlery looked like they had been left behind by past guests. There's no quick food in the area- we walked 20 minutes to find a Burger King- which had wifi, pay phones, clean bathrooms and hot food. Unfortunate when the local Burger King is better appointed than your damn "hotel".
