Even though it wasn't what we expected, the employees were really nice and attentive. When we told them that it wasn't what we expected they immediately understood and did everything in there power to make it better.

For the young at heart

Entering the Freehand is an opportunity to see the detail in an Art Deco building from the 1930’s with the contemporary vibe and energy. Located two blocks from the beach, it is a well curated space with gardens, a pool, and a small oasis home to the well-known bar “Broker…

Thank you very much for your review! I am so happy that you enjoyed the atmosphere here at Freehand. We hope to see you again soon!

Fun way to start a vsit to Miami!

We spent two days in a private suite at Freehand Miami - and loved every minute of it. The place has a wonderful laid back vibe - with a broad mix of travellers hanging out in the gardens and around the pool. Our room was spacious and quiet - just what we were looking for. The…

Worst hotel ever!

It was the worst hotel I'd been. Horrible and dark rooms, bad smell, noisy, no TV, no comfort, no nothing. It's a hostal not a hotel. Only been there one night and book another hotel. Can't be there one more minute. Don't ever think about stay there. For the same price you can…

Really does need an update

Like other reviewers have said, this property really needs some serious TLC. Also, housekeeping staff are nice, but had to ask for an appropriate number of towels for the number of guests in room. Have stayed in the NYC property, and I get that it's not intended to be a hotel…

Do the shared dorm rooms have electronic security safes?

No. They have lockers but you will need to bring your own padlock

Show all answers

Could anyone tell me what size padlock can be used for the lockers (from the pictures it looks like it might have to be fairly small) ?

Amy standard padlock will work there.

How far is the hostel from the airport?

Just as Tony S, that is the cheapest and easier way, the drivers of 150 Express are very friendly, I bet that they can help u with the location. The other options are Uber, and a taxi,

Hi is a holding fee taken upon booking?

Hi! I paid for the entire stay when I booked because the Freehand was offering the promotion: Stay 3+ nights and receive up to 35% off your stay. I would check their FB page/website to see if the have a promo for the dates you are looking for. Enjoy!

Can anyone tell me what the walk is like to the beach? And what is the beach area closest to Freehold like--is it crowded? Dirty? Primarily for holidaymakers? locals? I've never been to the FL beaches on the Atlantic side, only the Gulf. Thx

2 blocks from the beach surrounding activities stores restaurants bars Pristine and safe environment equal to locals or tourists
