I would start by saying buyer beware! The ad is very misleading. There is no "deposit." There are however, daily resort fees that are NOT listed in the ad. So, if you do book, even though the receipt and the ad shows you that all taxes and fees are included, you'll be paying $35 per day once you get there. And you won't find that out until you show up and don't have a choice. While it's a common practice, it is NOT common to mislead customers and make it sound like a deal that isn't really a deal and is about the same as every other place once you factor in the extra charges. It's called false advertising. While the hotel itself isn't terrible, there isn't anything that stands out. The ONLY reason I booked is because they didn't include the extra fees so it sounded like I was getting a deal that I wasn't because I had to pay extra when I got there. It's a "boutique" hotel which really means it needs renovating. They offer a free happy hour at a sister property...a mile away...with a sad swimming pool at the same property a mile away. There is a restaurant onsite and it's good Cuban food, but VERY expensive. The only real plus is the location and they give you beach towels, umbrella and chair to use. Again I could have (and should have) paid virtually the same price at most any other place in the area. At least those ads had a clear listing of extra charges to expect. And many of them were a cut above Hotel Chelsea.

The place is unique and charming in an extraordinary neighborhood. SO much to see and do. All the staff was kind and helpful. Only one downside that brought this rating from a 5 to a 3... I've stayed there two times. There is NO HOT WATER in the shower. I tried everything to get hot water... nothing worked. I asked the front desk and the person working there said something to the effect of 'yeah, there's definitely a trick to it... you have to turn the dial a certain way into a very specific place and it usually works...." usually? I would love to recommend this place, but not if you like hot showers.

Entrance is thru a restroom Front desk staff is super nice Rooms are kind of small Minimal outlets, don’t plan on charging more than one thing at a time or bring a splitter One plug for two lamps between beds. Had to unplug one lamp to plug in phone. Only 3 plugs in entire bedroom area plus one in bathroom Bathroom is , maybe 20 square feet but that includes the door that opens into the sink & cabinet. The toilet is crammed between sink and shower. Shower is spacious. Probably nicest thing in the room but it definitely could be cleaner. I scraped off mildew with my fingernail. Used a washcloth and hand soap to clean the rest of the walls. Desk is 18” deep and 36” wide. First floor sounds like it is over the kitchen Loud until at least midnight Construction on a building next door is VERY loud A loud bird outside our window TV had no main channel. Had to sign into my own account to watch something Lost OEM TV remote left our room with a terrible RCA replacement Small fridge packed with hotel stuff ( expensive ), no room for your own. Had to take their stuff out. Flight bottles of tequila and other liquor sitting in desk. If you have kids, put them in the safe in the closet. $34 a day resort fee and there is nothing here. The fee is usable at a Sister property 2 or 3 blocks away. I don’t remember seeing the resort fee online. There is nothing at this location. No gym, pool, parking, drink machine. I went to 7-11 a block away for drinks and a few snacks. It sucked, too.
