SCARY
Nice size hotel room for one night. Had a hard time understanding front desk staff (poor English). Room door does not close completely. Place a chair against door to close door completely. Bed was horrible and uncomfortable. Electronic Key system would not accept key card, had to fight with the door to get it open. Front Desk rekeyed card but that did not work. Bathroom, mold on shower curtain, in order for the toilet to flush you must hold the handle down entire the toilet flushes completely. Not a tourist location had to walk three plus blocks to find a food eatery or restaurant. Walk four plus blocks and you will be at Bayside Marketplace great place to find something to eat and shop. The most interesting action was gun shots 2:30 in the morning time to get out of Miami. Would not Recommend without warning travelers first.

Outdated, dirty, bed bugs and a huge security risk.

Lets start with the security first:
I came there to meet my friends who had already checked in and had my bags in their room. I called their room from the lobby, and had no answer twice. I asked the front desk clerk if I could gain access into the room to get my luggage (my name was not on the itinerary whatsoever) and without asking me for ID, he just gave me a key to their room. Although I was happy to be able to get into my luggage, this was an extremely horrible move that violates a LOT of security issues.

Cleanliness:
The room was a dump. The sheets looked like they had not been washed in weeks and more hair in the bathtub than Ive ever seen stuck in my wifes hair brush. It was obvious that the beds had not been moved in a LONG time as the floors were absolutely disgusting. The rooms smelled like mold and although we could not find any ourselves, we overheard multiple guests complaining about bed bugs and trying to find alternate accommodations. There are marks on the room, lobby, and hallway walls that appear to have been there for a long time, and overall the hotel is just makes you FEEL dirty. I have literally stayed in over 100 hotels and would rate this one at the very bottom of the list for cleanliness.

Outdated:
Even with the 80's decor, the lobby looks somewhat inviting. Once you get past that, the place needs a major overhaul. Paint, trim, new carpets, and definitely furnishings and beds.

Other:
I understand that it's a convenient location to the convention center, but if you have the chance, go elsewhere! The hotels on Biscanye are only a 5-8 minute walk away and I'm guessing well worth it. No restaurant in this hotel either other than breakfast.

The only positive point of this trip was a restaurant called "El Cartel Columbian" about 1 block away. I had a server named Lily who was an absolute treat to deal with and the food was incredible.

Closing thoughts....stay away from here. Read the other reviews and trust them! This place is a dump.

An ok hotel, just it . Not an outstanding one, but confortable and very well located.

Where to start really? The place is cheap, but that is for a reason. The rooms are not particularly comfortable (though they are clean), and facilities woefully lacking. The wireless only works in the lobby, and the gym was entirely closed as the three machines were broken.

I would recommend it for a night or two, if you just need somewhere to rest your head. However do not expect any luxury, and if you can stay somewhere nicer, do so (the local area isn't great)
