I like that I was close to the beach and the hotel is beachfront. Things that I didn’t like were that there was full length mirror, no lightbulb in the closet, no drawers to put your clothes in. Restroom is outdated. The bedroom area is modern. Hotel is next to CVS and is practical.

Very small, max of 2 people per room, if that.

Fairly quiet, comfortable, great location, clean. My only negative is that it was extremely small. No room for any movement, luggage, clothes, toilets didn’t flush well so plugged easily and we ended up using the lobby toilet most of the trip. No daily room service, had to ask for towels, toilet paper. Not enough wall plugs or garbage. This hotel room doesn’t hold more than 2 people, that’s the only reason i would never stay here again.

The customer service was excellent. A fellow by the name of Chris checked me in, and he was pleasant, professional, and efficient. He also said to see him or anyone at the desk if I needed anything before going out and buying it, because there is a chance they may have it (for example, a phone charging cord & adapter). I didn't need anything additional. The room was clean and the place is right on Ocean Drive. This hotel is historic and has been seen in many movies and TV shows, from "Scarface" to "Miami Vice," so it was fun staying in a place I've seen many times in media. Unless you get a room on the front wall, the only view you have will be of the building next door, which is fine if you are the type who does not spend much time in your hotel room.

The Hotel is in a great location, the service was excellent and they even upgraded us to an Ocean Drive room which was lovely. The only thing is that room can be a bit noisy. We knew the nighttime would be noisy, but it did still reduce sleep time. However I would go back, just ask for an inside room.
