I had a wonderful time at the Ayra hotel while I was in Miami. Great location for restaurants and lots to do walking. I had a car and parking was good. The 8th floor pool had a wonderful view of sailboats and water. Great wind break and a lot of lounges and umbrellas. In the room, I liked the long table at the window with Nespresso machine, microwave and refrigerator. Bed was comfortable and I had lots towels and pillows. Elevator issues and I was notified in advance.
I loved everything about it. One of the property managers set up my TV so that I could watch cable stations, because I don't have a Netflix account. The floor needed to be really scrubbed with cleaning solution of some sort because my feet would get dirty instantly. The property manager had the floor washed and it was better, but it wasn't perfect. I booked again and I'm returning shortly!
The location and cleanliness of the property was great. The view from the room was awesome. While out of the renter's control, we had noisy neighbors that shared the common entryway. The check-in process could improve. I texted with the manager to meet in the lobby at 11:30 am to complete the payment process, but the person didn't show up until 11:50am. Also, listing stated there would be 4 bath towels, there were only 2. When I inquired how to obtain more towels or housekeeping, there was a $20 service charge. I ended up toughing it out for another 2 days.
I booked through Expedia, but it was actually a Vrbo. The check in was stressful because I had to wait to hear from the property manager instead of just being able to check in. The property was nice, but the elevators were slow.
I stayed here while visiting my brother, who lives in Coconut grove. The apartment was great/ exactly as listed. The location is perfect for exploring the Grove!
