I checked in on 2/27 around 1AM. The evening attendant was very accommodating and even came outside to help me find a parking spot. I had a completely different experience at checkout. On Monday before the 11AM checkout I went to the front desk and asked the attendant if I could check out at 11:30. She said it would cost me to do so. I had already spent hundreds of dollars and most hotels extended checkouts as I courtesy. she insisted that it was the policy. I declined the charge and said I’d be back shortly for my $50 cash deposit. I returned to my room on the ground floor, grabbed by luggage, and returned to the front desk with my partner to check out. We waited patiently as she attended to another guest. When she was done I slid the room key through the porthole. As I did so I repeated to her “It’s not the money. It’s the principle.” She responded “If it’s not the money why are you arguing?” I pointing out that at my last stay at the hotel there wasn’t a fee for it.” She then said that I should stop being cheap especially since it wasn’t a lot of money. At that point my partner started responding on my behalf and told her she was unprofessional and shouldn’t speak to me that way. She escalated the situation and called me a “broke N-word.” My partner and I both lost our tempers and started yelling at her. She further escalated the situation by Face-timing a male and said he was on the way. We left before seeing a manager because we had to make our flight. Never going back.

This place was awful. The pictures make it look better than it is. When we arrived, the young woman was so rude to us. I was waiting for her attention, and then stepped to the window when she asked me what I needed. When I told her I had a reservation she responded by saying “so?” We went back-and-forth in conversation for a little while and then she told me to step aside and she helped a person who had apparently been there, but was also struggling to work with her. We eventually got our room and it was disgusting. You wouldn’t want to even put your feet on the floor. When we went to leave our room, we went through a door and then there was another door to the outside. That door was jammed so tight that we could not get out. We pushed and pushed and pushed, and finally I flew through the door and fortunately did not fall on the pavement. Thinking maybe this was just a fluke, the second time I had to go through that door , it was stuck again. They also make you leave a cash deposit for the room. Just be warned, do not stay there! Don’t be fooled by the pictures.

My wife and I stayed in the hotel for 5 days, deposit for the room needs to be in cash, the staff told me that they don’t clean the rooms every day, in 5 days the didn’t do it at all, there is a lot of people coming and go all the time, looks like they rent the rooms by the hour too, there was not hot water in our room, we ask for fresh towels, we went back and for to get them,
One of the pictures to advertise the hotel show the beach close by, my mistake the beach is 3 miles away, why we didn’t leave? My wife has a condition and I can’t just move her from one place to another that easy, I don’t ask for anything was my mistake, I just don’t want someone else go through our bad experience

CVS & Dollar Store within walking distance. Air conditioning kept room cool. Room was very clean though old. TV's worked good. Three small pools were very clean with ample chairs. No hair dryer in the room ,but I was able to get one at the main office. Fridge & microwave in room. No coffee maker. The grounds/landscaping are charming. Water Zoomba & Bingo nights. Rooms need updating but for a Ma/Pa type hotel, it was just fine. About 1.8 miles from the beach. Use \"Ride Circuit\" App. $2 to the beach!

Can’t sit straight on the potty as there’s no room for knees. Loudest street noise ever. Checked out after one sleepless night and could not get a refund for the following night, which we had prepaid for. Manager never even called us after we left word to do so and what problems were. Never again!

The bed a bit too soft and squishy. I slept like a log but getting in and out was a challenge. The bathroom and hot shower were good, but the towels were shorter than I like. Speaking of shorter, the commode was child size, very short. I wanted to have my bicycle securely with me in the room. They thought locking it up outside was an ok idea. They’re obviously not cyclists.

Don’t waste time staying at this trashy place. They need to burn it down and do a full renovation. The sheets weren’t clean the quilts has holes. Housekeeping just brings you one towel no cleaning or taking out the trash etc. rooms are extremely tiny. Walls are paper thin so you can hear the guests next to you and above you. Do not stay at this trashy place! I wouldn’t recommend. Booked 4 nights that were non refundable but discovered other places afterwards that were much nicer for the $560 I wasted to stay here last min. They need to renovate for all that they charge to be here. Other than the location the entire place is trash!

Decent rooms for a budget hotel.

The problem is the Latina girl working. She is working right now, Richard/Richard Partners/ANYBODY ABOVE THE PECKING ORDER OF ‘Paula’, and this kind of human, along with the exhausted, both phsycally/mentally unattractive Paula who showed her disgusting self, sadly.

Paula not only dresses like a homeless person, has the physical appearance of a 2.5 out of 10 at best, but her work competency and ethic are at a 2 out of 10.

As someone who worked in hotels for several years and as a vendor for hotels for another 10 years, it’s truly a rare combo to come across such a low iq, inefficient hospitality worker, such as PAULA.

Check out my Google review on 1.27.26, I am EL

I’d like to discuss why such low class humans like Paula are placed in these customer interactive positions? Paula’s best days are behind her, it’s obvious when interacting with this lost soul, as her apathy and low class personality shine.. or display for all to see.

So read the Google review, and if you are Richard, call me, I live in Hollywood. While Paula is a low wage worker who comes across as trying her best albeit her low intelligence and below average looks, customers deserve better.

Thanks

Upon arrival there was no one behind the locked bulletproof glass cage, but there were three people already waiting. Another customer called the posted number and someone came out to the cage from within. Then we were told that a fifty dollar cash deposit was required, BUT, their ATM WAS NOT FUNCTIONING so we had to hike down the street to find one as they wouldn’t wave the fee or take a credit card! When I returnd one third of the parking strip was overrun with police cars and there was only one open spot. 20 minutes later I got into a room on the second floor with no elevator and dragged my pack and suitcase up a flight of spongy stairs.
The room was ancient the “stick on” tiles throughout the room had shrunk over the decades and were separated at the seams indiscriminately. The TV didn’t work, one lamp’s lamp didn’t work but the outlet in the base did work and the other lamp worked but its outlet didn’t. In the morning, trying get out at around 8:30 am there was no one in the cage. Banging on the door got nowhere. Calling got me recording saying I was first in line. When answered I asked where the heck the clerk was? He said “I’m at the other location!” I said “ I’m in the hole fifty dollars and I have to catch a plane!” He said I’ll be there in 3 minutes. 5 minutes later an elderly gent with a Brit accent showed up, returned my 50, and when I told him of the deficiencies he said: “You should have called, I’d have sent someone right up to repair it”. Right.

Areas for improvement: Room was beat up. Signs of mold in bathroom (on shower taps). Strict about not letting you check in till 4pm and no where to drop bags. Check in process was paper-based; forms filled out by hand took a while. Note $50 deposit is cash only.

For the discount price this is very acceptable and that merits 5 stars in my book. Its clean and, at least in my room everything worked. There is lots of parking which is unusual in this urban location. Does it feel safe ? The location at street level in a trendy but slightly gritty section of a major Miami Beach street is kinda safe, but kinda not. The clientele appears to be mostly men. The policies are designed for a clientele who are assumed to not necessarily have credit cards.

We arrived early and thought we could sit by the pool until 4pm check in but were asked to leave. We were the only people at the pool and just quietly surfing our phones. We are a couple in our 50s, clean and behaved. They said if we didn’t pay $10 per person per hour before check in we were not welcome to wait on the property.

The check in girl was extremely abrupt and unwelcoming. Mind you given the regular types of clientele there I guess it hardened her. She seemed sure we wouldn’t get our $50 cash deposit back. I felt like I was checking into prison or something.

The public areas were not sanitized. Everything you touch is tacky/sticky and you feel like you need hand sanitizer constantly. The towels were terrible. No shampoo or conditioner just waxy tiny bar of soap.

The bed was clean. No bugs. But not firm and very bouncy. One pillow per person and very small and thin. But clean.

The area is okay daytime great markets and stores right there but shady at night. Shady clients at hotel. Not walkable to any beach.

No public toilet by pool or on the property at all. Smell
Of weed everywhere.
