Check-in staff had no smiles or greeting. Room furniture was worn and bathroom needed painting. Overall it was ok for an overnight stay but hotel is in major need of a renovation.

We stayed here for one night on the way down to Key West. It's right off of Us-1 which we found very convenient. Check in was quick and easy. Paid $112 and got a clean room facing the back which overlooked a back road. The room was quiet and comfortable. The bathroom was tiny but clean. Carpets looked a bit... More

We were given a room on the back of the property. It seemed like we walked for 30 minutes prior to getting to our room from the elevator. The room is old and very tired. The bathroom needs some serious remodeling. The rugs look like they've been walked on for centuries. The bed is small and not very comfortable. The... More

Good morning, and thank you for taking the time to write about our hotel. Its very unfortunate you didnt like the room at the end of the hall. Most people tend to like those as they offer more privacy. Next time however we will be glad to place you closer to the elevator. Also please be sure to stop by... More

Stayed there last week for a U of Miami graduation of a family member. They jacked the price up to $165 per night for a double, which for just how lousy the property was with equally lousy service was not right at all. The property was tired and run down with huge scratches in the walls and elevator. No sense... More

This property was very nicely appointed, and very convenient to the University of Miami campus. Staff were all friendly and courteous. Only small drawback was the tiny bathroom.

Stayed here for business. Comfy bed. Screwy phone. Basic tv. Doesn't serve lunch every day but it's a 5 min. drive/20 min. walk to Whole Foods, AMC movies & shopping. Across from University & rail stop that can take you downtown. Sushi & Starbucks a short walk drive. Decent pool. The hotel wasn't spotless. Not much attention to detail. But... More
