La mayor queja es sobre la bulla a media noche. Deben de poner carteles afuera del edificio y en los pasillos de no hacer bulla después de cierta hora. Nuestra habitación estaba en el primer piso hacia la entrada y eso era gente hablando, fumando y retozando a toda hora de madrugada. Tuve que salir y pedirles que por favor bajaran la voz. Desafortunadamente nos fuimos más expropiadas de la vacacion de lo que llegamos ya que arriba de la bulla la segunda noche empezó a tocar la alarma de fuego varias veces a media noche sin explicación forzando la gente a evacuar.

The check in process was rather aggravating. I booked the room and awaited the pre check in process. I immediately completed that part of the check in process , but never received further confirmation as to how to check in (being no staff was present). I initiated a chat within the Expedia app in attenpt to get the needed info for check in. I never could get a response with that information. I went to the hotel but couldn't figure out what to do because no worker was there. I called multiple times and was finally able to get an employee on the phone and get the needed info to check in to my room. The room reeked with the smell of mold or mildew. The floors were not swept & mirrors were dirty. The shower wasnt clean. The room was well stocked, however. There were tiny insects in the room and spiders. Construction is in process so it was very noisy upon waking. The hotel has trip hazards and you have to be mindful of that. It's a task unloading luggage and getting it to your room. I was not satisfied with my stay at all and I don't recommend this hotel to anyone unless you just need a cheap place to rest while on vacation.

Only the first day was really good; afterwards, bugs appeared on my bed and pillows. I was completely disgusted—I ended up sleeping on the floor that night, and I couldn't bring myself to stay there for another day! I told them to check into the issue so that no one else would have to go through a bad experience like mine.

Overall 2/5. Room was conveniently located a block from the beach, nice area. Room was similar to pictures, nice set up and TV. Although multiple minor problems kept appearing throughout our 4 day stay. On the first evening our AC unit leaked all over the floor and we came back and had to clean up the mess. We notified the staff and nothing was done. We proceeded to put the room trash can under to catch the leak, and the bucket sat there until our last day. The next day, we opened our window, and it broke, along with the blinds falling off its strings when you move them. None of the windows opened, all broken. The next day, we get home late after a night out, go put in our 4 digit code, and we are locked out of our own room. Time is out of “office hours” (10am-6pm) and we had to sit outside locked out of our room and call customer service number for help inside. On the phone I told the service provide about our leaking AC unit and other issues. We were told this would be fixed in the morning, and no one came. Next morning, we go to the front desk to get towels before the beach and were told to “wait 10 minutes”. We decided to go the the beach without towels, and told the staff again about leaking AC unit and issues. Surprisingly, we leave and come back after hours, and no one has checked on leak and bucket is full. We checked out last day and no one asked about any issues experienced this trip, no acknowledged of persistent issues.

I will not stay here again. The room was not clean as it should be, the blanket had stains on them. The room was very moist and dingy. The loud fire alarms went off 3 times in the middle of the night. It is close to the beach, but if you don’t have a chair and want one, it is a long walk. As the beach chairs are for resort people.

Bedding had yellow stains, asked for it to be switched and the new bedding also had yellow stains. The bathroom had bad water damage and the entire place smelt like mildew. Had to tape the curtain shut over the door or other guests walking by could see in where we slept. Did not look properly cleaned/maintained (random stains, and spills dripped on walls). We were told the room would be cleaned/bedding changed/new towels every three days but this didn’t happen our entire 6 day stay. Back gate to the property doesn’t lock. The place was not as seen in the pictures online. Location was nice and close to the beach.

Wow! I dont know where to begin. This location was giving me hospital/jailhouse/conference room. The view didnt exist. The window was small and if curtain was open, guest would be able look in. The bathroom needed some MAJOR upgrades. The room smelled moldy and wet. The mattress was sweet but the frame the bed was sitting on made more noise than the traffic nearby. There was some construction right next to the venue and it was VERY UNPLEASANT. I couldnt sleep in during the day. The location was amazing. Close to beach, stores and restaurants and unfortunately that was the only nice experience. The place has some SO MUCH potential to be amazing but it just seemed very SAD. with that said i highly recommend selecting another place to stay.

Everything was great, except that the people above us were very noisy. My daughter brought her sound machine because she's a light sleeper, and it was a good thing! If I were the owner, I would replace the counter in the bathroom (it just looks icky) and put a cabinet around the shelves with the clothes hanging system. I'm an interior decorator so I notice things like that. It would upgrade things a lot. We would stay there again if we could be in a room on the top floor. The outside patio on the roof was very nice.

Our stay at Samantha Apts was comfortable and clean. My only complaint is, the front entrance lacks direction on where to go to check in. There is a sign that says to go to floor 4, even though there is only a roof top deck and vending machine on that phone. It took me calling 3 times and exploring the building before we found the front desk, which was just a man with a laptop. He was very friendly and escorted us to our room, showed us how to use the padlock for our rooms, and gave us tips on beach amenities and restaurants. The hotel should provide guidance before hand with a message on how to check-in and where to go. Additionally, there was construction going on right next door which would have been nice to know as a heads up. But it didnt not effect us as we stayed over the weekend and left monday morning.

I liked that this property was so close to the beach. My biggest complaint is that the wall air conditioning was horrible and it was very humid and hot. There was a lot of construction going on near the property. There weren't beach towels. It was not what I expected. I'm not too picky usually, but I was disappointed with this property. The best thing was being close to the beach.

The \"front desk\" is in a small elevator room- the elevator works 20% of the time. Had to repeatedly ask for towels and washcloths. They give you 1 washcloth for your entire stay and you have to basically harass them for more, you are expected to take your own trash out upon leaving and do the dishes. The trash is in the back of the building in an alleyway. The gates aren't kept locked. The laundry is in the back of the building in an alleyway. The bathroom was dirty. There is construction literally right outside your door on the next building over and is loud and obnoxious.

The property was OK the room looked great but we called in for room service and it never came. The laundry room has a different code which they do not tell you about, also everything in the apartment kept breaking when we would barely touch it. Especially the shower; the glass kept moving around and the door barely worked I was scared the glass would just end up falling. The handle to the shower straight up just ripped off when we barely tugged on it and so did the shower dispenser. The remotes of the fan and light also would work on and off. Very accessible for the beach and dining but I probably wouldn’t stay here if I was on a longer trip.

The person who checked us in helped with one bag but I still had to carry the other bag up. An uncomfortable night, leading to an earlier check out.

Upon arrival, we couldn’t even locate the front desk—it turned out to be just a small standing desk awkwardly placed in the elevator hallway, with no signage or staff in sight. The elevator was broken, and we waited around for nearly 20 minutes before a woman finally told us she was the front desk. She wasn’t friendly or welcoming in the slightest.

When we got to our room, things only got worse. The room was dirty—there was visible hair, dust, and dirt on the nightstands, kitchen table, and coffee table. The shower clearly hadn’t been cleaned, with water marks and leftover shampoo residue still on the walls. To top it off, the curtains were broken and stained.

Overall, this stay was far below basic standards of cleanliness, comfort, and hospitality. I would not return and cannot recommend this hotel to anyone

Room was nice. Room manager extended our check out. We paid $50 for it. We get ready to go to the beach and he tells us to enjoy it at 12:30. Never told us a time to check out. So we assumed 4 pm. We get back to the room and he

Be aware no value for the price

Worst check in experience not even a chair to seat at the entrance or a water. The employee not present at 5:15pm. When he arrives he didn’t offer is chair for me to finish the check in form.The elevator not working and your employee not offering help for luggages. The room smell like mold. The mattress has a big whole in the center making it really uncomfortable. The protection of the mattress is dirty and smell like pee. Cheapest pillow ever. Woke up with pain in my back and a stiff neck. Also my eyes swollen from the mold.
There’s an infestation of small bugs with wings. I have pictures to prove everything written here.
Almost forgot about the dirty floors.

A full kitchen and cooking stove but no water bottle in the room, no coffee, not even a tea bag and no salt and pepper or olive oil.

This area is very walkable and is so close to the beach. You can be there in 5 minutes and lots of people are around with several dining options. People were very friendly!

The property itself was clean, decent space except we encountered multiple issues
*The door lock was not working which was solved when i called them.
*main issue is safety, somebody tried to get inside our rental 2x, both male.i thought at first was from the property coz i called about the door.
I called the property and voiced my concern about safety, spoke with Leah. And she keeps insisting that \"nobody was able to get inside, right?\" As per her. I told her if i need somebody to get inside first before something is done. Cut the story short, they did not follow up, nobody called if same issue happened again. Nothing. I asked to speak with property manager, even on the phone( a three way call with the representative). They did not allow it. I asked to speak with property manager the next day at 9 am, nobody showed up, no follow up whatsoever! They only sent me a message saying that somebody will fix the door(mind you they sent the message when i asked where the propertymanager is) and this was 10am. The meeting was supoosed to be 9 am.
*elevator is not working so if you have an elderly or all femalr group expect thet you will carry all your luggages up the floor.
So i would not recommend the place due to safety. And the reperesentative did help at all! The worst!!!!

This place did not look like the photos. All patio furniture is torn up and disorganized. Nice view of the run down building containing homeless. Construction noises bright and early. Throwing up people from 1AM-4AM. We had the king room by the entrance of the building and the gate slams every single time someone walks in. Upon check-in, we were greeted by a man that had to take his laptop charger out of our room before we walked in. That was the only time we saw a single employee. Laundry facilities were not on site. They were in-fact in the back of a building with a keypad entry. We were given the password which did not work (keypad was zip-tied, it wouldn't have worked either way). Customer service was called and was clueless as to what was happening. Weird. Would recommend to my worst enemy though.

Upon arriving we noticed a lot of bad reviews. However there were strong points and weaknesses. The pictures are deffinatly glorified. But overall it wasnt that bad. The room was very clean, no bugs, no pests at all. The gentleman at the front counter was extremely nice and helped us with everything we needed. The room did smell like pest chemicals. But after seeing reviews about pests, it shows that they are taking action to better their establishment. The area around samanthas isnt very nice. However walk 1 block away and youre in the beautiful views of miami and the beach. So to sum it up, customer service was excellent. The rooms were clean. The location was good overall. But the area around the location was rough and the room had a pest control smell. Take the good with the bad and this is a decent place to stay for a little weekend get away.

It’s a great property and they give you a huge room, including a kitchen and that’s a place. You can actually stay there for a long time. I don’t like the check-in, which is by remote.

This was the worst hotel we ever stayed at. We had to leave after 1 night it was inhabitable. The beds were horrible, fruit flies everywhere. The fan was about to fall off. The picture looked nothing like the hotel and the staff were rude when we told them. They said sorry it’s non refundable. I had asked for a crib and they said they don’t have those and literally asked for the screenshots where I asked which I had. There’s no front desk , it was a tent and the buildings next to the hotel were both abandoned.

Our room was already occupied when we arrived so we had to call to get moved to another.
The water pressure in the shower was almost a literal sprinkle. The sink was completely rusted.
Parking was 7 blocks away at $45 a night.
The beach was very close.

Property is unsafe, moldy and no minimal restaurants in the area. Gated area due to many homeless people. Do not recommend staying here. Cupboard doors falling off, toilet ran constantly and shower and air conditioner moldy

One word, HORRIBLE. The sole positive aspect was with Julietta, who let us check in early. Regrettably, the rest of our stay was inexcusable. Upon arrival, it was difficult in locating the entrance due to the lack of a traditional front office. We then discovered that the check-in area was a covered pop-up tent situated inside the gate, but it was unattended upon our arrival. Moreover, the room presented numerous issues. The air conditioning unit had a paper towel lodged in the back, obstructing a hole, while the microwave exhibited significant rust and flaking inside. The dust was excessive, particularly at the top of the front door. Additionally, the keypad on the door didn’t work, requiring us to use a key stored in a lockbox outside the door, which they requested to leave the key in the box whenever we departed. They failed to inform us that the entire building lacked hot water. We should have been afforded the opportunity to cancel our reservation, but instead, we had to boil water using the provided pots in order to maintain personal hygiene. Upon arrival, we found an insufficient supply of towels and no paper towels, and when we sought out the housekeeper, we discovered her sitting idle, scrolling through her phone in another unit. Don’t use the soap in the shower, as it had a suspicious white substance, and the glass shower door off and difficult to close. We would caution against patronizing this establishment unless one is accustomed to subpar living conditions.
