I couldn't have picked a better spot for my stay. Right next to the beach and close to a variety of restaurants, the hotel location was just perfect. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the staff was incredibly welcoming. On the downside, the dining experience was a bit lacking in variety. Nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the well-kept pool area. While the price was fair, it was a shame that Wi-Fi came at an extra cost.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The location is fantastic, just a block away from the beach and conveniently close to South Beach attractions. The rooms were spacious and modern with a king bed, however, the absence of outside seating was a bit of a downside. The service was excellent, offering laundry and tours/ticket assistance. The dining experience, although included, lacked in variety. Overall, a great value for money choice with some minor room amenities missing.
