The signal was horrible and the worker working that evening stated there was nothing he could do about it and the manager wouldn’t be in until the next afternoon, at which time we would be something in the Atlantic.

You get what you pay for. The only good thing about this property is the fact that it’s a 5 minute walk from the beach. The rooms are in terrible shape, you can hear everything from the hallways to the neighbours room. There is no quiet space…we heard people screaming in the halls at 3am every night… you can hear everything happening outside of the hotel at all hours. Room cleaning only comes every 3 days, floors in the room were falling apart…our safe was broken the day we checked in, was never fixed. We ran out of toilet paper. There is zero counter space in the washroom so there is no area to get ready …. It very much feels like a 2/3 star hotel. Our neighbour blasted their tv all hours of the night and we could not sleep…no telephone in the room to call front desk…. Like I said, only good point is that it’s close to the beach, however, there are MANY other hotels near the water that I’d stay at before this one again.

The only good thing about this place was that it was within walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Everyone was unfriendly, very noisy which I know is expected for the area. However when there is a 1" gap between the door and door frame its going to be louder.

The boutique hotel was awesome. Check in staff were great and super accommodating. The downstairs had a great retro bar and the rooms were really well done and super clean. Bathroom was really nice and clean as well. Comes with a small fridge too and Tv setup to connect and stream services with. Also we were on the 3rd floor and no noise or anything from outside. Literally a block away from south beach, easy access to restaurants, and easy uber pickup out front. Would stay back here again. Very pleased

Hallways were filthy and smelled terrible. Rooms were dirty and dusty, shower was moldy. It was very noisy but to be expected for the location. Staff checking in and out acted like they were bothered to assist. 2 days after checkout I was charged for use of the minibar - I called and was told that they are serviced by a 3rd party for that and would investigate. I had to call back 2 more times with no resolution. I finally disputed wtih my credit card and was credited back the money. The only good thing about the hotel was the restaurant - the food was excellent and the server was very nice.

The location of the room close to the beach etc. was terrific! However, there was no coffee pot in the room, nor any coffee offered at all, until 9:00 a.m. and it was packaged creamer and not at all good coffee. The guests from other rooms were hootin and hollering in the hallways for most of the night, and it was very noisy. I wouldn't choose this hotel in the future.
