No good
We arrived to the hotel at midnight and got into our room shortly after. The smelt awful! But it was late and thought maybe we’d get use to it. The bathroom floor and toilet seat had condensation all over it. What we thought were cold sheets, were damp sheets. We woke up with hardly any sleep and never getting use to the smell. Then we noticed the black mold in the ceiling and air vent. So far I’ve only got back $35 of the $80 we paid in resort fees and none of my $600 for the two nights we booked. We were after 7.5 hours. It’s been 12 days since the stay. Oh! And our clothes smelt awful!!!!

Good from far but far from good
There was a very strong musky smell. It smelled like the hotel was trying to cover it up with sandlewood. The walls were very very wavy which made me think that there was water damage and that was the smell I was getting. The room was clean but very humid even with the A/C on very low, which made the floor really tacky when walking on it. Very unpleasant.

Building had a smell
We just stayed here for 4 nights. Service/staff was excellent. Great location, close to beach and the main attractions, hustle and bustle. The building/ room had a smell that we could have been without and we received a towel that was stained. All and all not the worst place.

I gave the place a fair chance but overall we were not satisfied. There’s a need for renovation and cleaning. The walls were bubbled from water damage and it smelled moldy. There was also no elevator and the staff didn’t offer at all to help with luggage. One of the guests that I traveled with has mobility issues.
Lastly we have repeatedly attempted to contact the hotel because of an item left behind and we’ve received no response.

Nice decor, 5-min walk to beach, small hotel, friendly staff.
Room was "cool" and comfortable, but very small and with minimum amenities. Did the job for this short trip. Wouldn't want to stay multiple nights here.
Parking was $50 per night but that's South Beach.
Overall it was a positive experience.

First let me say that the place is nice & small. Unfortunately I was unaware that some rooms had no TVs, micro or refrigerators like mines. Also the rooms smell of mildew (this explains why there’s candles all in the lobby) & eventually we noticed big bubbles in the hallways walls which proved they are experiencing some type of water damage & it won’t be long b4 the walls cave in. Also make sure that if you order a drink you pay for it at the bar my son pulled out his card to pay & was told don’t worry we will charge your room & was charged an extra $3.00 on my card because it’s now considered room service lol after complaining about it he then said it was a bartender fee. Like wth is it room service or a bartender fee? either way it didn’t make sense. Although it was conveniently close to the beach I won’t be returning.

Loved that it’s a smaller hotel. It’s very aesthetic. The beds were super comfortable. Loved that the bunk beds were full beds as well. They also use Le Labo products which smell amazing.
The staff was super nice and friendly. And the hotel is a quick walk to the beach. I will be back for sure!
