This is the ninth year that my husband Ray ran the Miami Marathon, and we decided to stay at La Flora. Roz, the manager, is doing an excellent job overseeing renovations of carpet, etc, but most important, she and her staff were extremely helpful and responsive to us. We were in a king suite that was clean and spacious -... More

Coming from Switzerland we spend some 10 days in Florida mostly in the Keys and decided to stay in South Beach Miami for the last 2 days. Because of a nice Internet presentation we choose La Flora. What a disaster. We spend 2 nights in a room (207) which needs to be renovated and not only the carpet. The shower... More

My bf and I were very pleased with our choice of staying here! We had a fantastic room with brandnew hardwood floors and modern tiling glass shower. Not dated at ALL compared to where we stayed before. Staff spoke very well and very hospitable to us. Location is excellent!!!! We didnt pay for valet parking but instead parked on our... More

After having a bad experience at another local 'hotel' (The Royal South Beach) we happened across this hotel. Friendly and knowledgeable staff on reception, they couldn't do enough to help and even printed off movie times for us! The room we stayed in was clean and of a reasonable size. The hotel could do with re-carpeting throughout - but that's... More

La Flora is a place to stay in the heart of South Miami Beach for half the price of surrounding hotels. Sure the carpet needs to be changed, and the wall had a couple scuff marks, but over all I thought it was clean, the bathroom was nice, and the staff seemed friendly and honest. Surrounding hotels are nicer, but... More

May I start by saying I disagree with most of the negative reviews? Having spent several nights at different hotels in South Beach, I thought the La Flora was typical... an old building that is being maintained as cost effectively as possible. It blends well in the surrounding area, has a wonderful location and was staffed by some wonderful people.... More

This hotel was absolutely disgusting with very misleading photos and ammenities. It stated there was a bar, which there was not. Mini bars in each room....not. The carpet had stains everywhere, and rotting holes in the bathroom walls. The first room we were put in we complained because there was hair all over the sheets....they moved us to another room....

The hotel is well past it's prime. It has a consistent look from the dirty rugs and worn out furniture in the lobby and public areas to the dirty rugs in the room. Our room was large, but scarcely had enough furniture. There were multiple plumbing issues in the bathroom, light bulbs were burned out, etc. Only two thin towels... More

We reserved here thinking we'd enjoy staying in a hotel for a few days. It was so dam expensive for what you get that we thought it'd be good but it was rotten. The rooms are manky and the carpets are so bad it looks like there was a crime committed there! The TV is really old, there's no internet... More
