I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were beautiful and clean, but the noise from outside was quite a disturbance, especially during Miami's cold draft. The location was excellent, right in the middle of the strip on Ocean Ave, perfect for nightlife lovers, but it did come with some noise issues as well.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not-so-great experiences. The rooms were okay, clean, and spacious, but some areas felt smelly and dirty. The service was a bit inconsistent, with some staff being really good while others were tremendously rude. The location was perfect for our needs, right in the middle of the lively strip on Ocean Ave, although the check-in counter made me hesitant. The dining options were unclear, and the facilities were basic with some room for improvement.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, enjoying the modern amenities and great location near the beach and vibrant nightlife. The rooms were comfortable and well-equipped, but noise from outside was a minor issue. The service was mixed, with friendly staff but occasional oversights. The hotel's prime location near the beach and nightlife makes it a top choice for fun-seekers, although some cleanliness issues were noted.

The hotel is conveniently located right by the beach and near various dining options. The rooms, though needing some maintenance, were acceptable and came with pricey drinks. The service, while lacking in providing essentials like towels, offered only basic assistance. The location was fantastic for easy access to clubs and activities. However, the lack of clarity on dining availability was disappointing.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. On the positive side, the rooms easily fit our group of four and the location was perfect for exploring nearby bars, restaurants, and the beach. However, we faced issues with a broken bathroom door, the heating not working, and the price being on the expensive side for just one night, which was a bit disappointing.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was superb, close to the beach and vibrant restaurants, but the room I got in Building D was a letdown. The service, particularly at the reception, was lacking and unhelpful. However, being at the heart of the action made up for some of the downsides.
