First, for the price, I was surprised at the size. It was much larger than I imagined. As a frequent bargain traveler, I was very satisfied with what I received for my money. Sure, it was a little rough around the edges: could use a paint job, shower didn't stay hot for very long, minor things. But I loved having... More

I never knew that my stay at Miami Beach was going to be so pleasant; surprise!!! the Crystal Hotel had what I wanted; right on the beach, it has a kitchen, plates, refrigerator, microwave and everything a family will need. (even though, I don't cook but I had everything). plus, across the streets you have so many restaurants, different choices... More

First of all they try to lure you to their awful place with cheap rates on coupons that do not apply in reality. We had a coupon to stay there for 60 dollar a night and ended up paying 100... In their defense this was not the first place we encountered on our trip through Florida that used false advertising.... More

My husband and I stayed at Crystal beach for 3 nights July/Aug 2011 and wouldn't have stayed another night. It was just conveniently located by the beach, with gym, restaurants and groceries nearby. The pool was just plain awful with water so dirty they closed it down the next day. The hot tub/jaccuzi by the pool was closed. Toilet didn't... More

i loved this hotel me and my friends (5 in total) comfortably stayed in the suite we had a bed room and the longue with the pullout bed. but the room was very clean loved the staff and the pool and jacuzzi where great.. even if we didnt want to go in the pool the beach was a stone throw... More

The facility was tired and beaten up and needed some serious updates. The things that didn't function: Only one burner out of two on the stove worked. The five days we were there, the main elevator never worked and never saw anyone working to fix it. Same with the hot tub. Our door would not close without having to slam... More

I stayed at the Crystal beach for 2 nights with my partner. The location is great and so is the pool and the direct access to the beach. A couple of things were pretty disappointing though . Let's say that due to my current experience in the hotel industry (usual top hotels) I guess that average hotel won't just do... More

This hotel is in a great location, and the suite was nice enough, but ultimately the staff are very frustrating. Firstly the hotel has no parking lot and you have to pay $25 a night to have it valet parked some distance off site. This is a slower process than it needs to be. Secondly, three of us stayed for...

It was better than we expected. Everybody here speaks Spanish, but all know English. Beach towels in the lobby were free, but $10 umbrella and $5 beach chair - too expensive. Positives: A very good Cuban restaurant - Las Vegas - served delicious food, especially, $6 yellow rice with beans and chicken. City transport. The hotel is good for the... More
