Jazz on South Beach is located in a quiet neighbourhood on the southernmost bit of South Beach. This is extremely comforting because South Beach never sleeps, clubs are going all night, restaurants are bustling and people are out and about until dawn. But its close proximity to everything means you can "have your cake and eat it too". You can... more

Me and my friend went to Miami in the end of march, to attend the Winter Music Conference. We arrived at Jazz around 8pm, payed for our stay and got to our room. They guy who was at the front desk when we got there was pretty helpful. The rest were REALLY unhelpful and didn't care about the guests. The... more

This hostel was ok. i hadnt stayed in one before, so i didnt know what to expect. most of the staff were helpful. if you're a Republican or a member of the N.R.A i strongly urge you not to stay here, as i was definately the only one. many of the people were very very strange. the location was very... more

Found this place on hostelworld.com. didn't know what to expect, but overall found it suited our needs. the staff were constantly cleaning so its pretty clean, however the sheets were definitely not changed every day and different people slept in different beds since the bed assignments were not clear. stayed here for 3 nights. we were in an 8 person... more

At first glance this hostel has a lot to offer we arrived and all was fine it had a good atmospehere, after a few days and being around the hostel a bit it became clear the staff were selling illegal substances and many of the people staying in the rooms were there without paying. The hostel was bady run and... more

This hostel was OK, I agree with all the other comments about being disorganized though.

If you can avoid it do not stay at this hostel. We arrived at 6.30pm and headed straight to our room and it was a complete mess. There was atleast 2 days rubbish by the bin, all 4 of our beds were not made up and one of them had food on them. We went down straight away to get... more

I had a really great stay at this hostel. The staff were friendly and very helpful, the atmosphere was cool and people were really friendly. I stayed at the hostel by myself and met loads of people and had a great time. The hostel is like 2 blocks from the beach which is awesome. The rooms were generally clean and... more

I've done a lot of traveling and stayed in a lot of hostels - in SE Asia and Australia especially, and I have never stayed anywhere as hideous as the Jazz Hostel in Miami. It's filthy, the beds and uncomfortable and had bedbugs and the front desk are next to useless. I booked to stay two nights but couldn't bear... more
