Clean and pretty ”
Very nice hostel. Free wifi and breakfast. Building is over 100years old, but they renovate pretty good making into pretty fashionable boutique hostel. Inside is cozy , nice mood antique style and clean . I stayed in 8girls dormitory , each bed had a light stand and power point to charge ur phone beside ur head, 2 bathrooms and lockers . 5mins walk to Miami beach. Bus stop is right in front to go to south beach and main shopping streets. Lil bit far to go to main south area if you walk.(I walked but)

Great place for a few days”
My expectations were not very high before checking in - however as soon as you step foot into the hostel/hotel you automatically feel at home. Great deco and furniture which gives the place a great vibe. We stayed in the 4 bunk bedroom which was excellent for the 2 nights we were staying. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a "cheaper" stay in south beach - without compromising on cleanliness or comfort!

It has been renovated recently.”
I was in the apartment five, one of the guest houses. It has clean interior fully renovated, and has spacious room with bathroom. They gave me a blanket, a new towel, toilet paper when I asked. And did housekeeping when I asked. That was good to get some rest. There were parties at the bar Thur to Sun, which gave me a joyful atmosphere The better thing was, they finished the parties before midnight, so there was no interfering my sleeping. There was no kitchen, but it was no problem because I could reach City center or Publix by walking. One thing I recommend to correct is there was no electric outlet for upper beds, so if they install some extension lines to make it,

Very good”
I think you get what you pay for at this place. It’s definitely not a bad place. The only downfall is that you really have to figure out parking. There are parking on the streets and lots nearby but it can get price since you have to pay by the hour and it’s at your own risk.

Terrible experience!!!! Worst room. Loud music ”
This was the absolute worst hotel experience I have ever had!!!! The young man knowingly placed me and my wife in the room closest to the patio. He knew on Friday night that there was a DJ right outside our room who played until 3am. I am an easy target. I had to drink myself to sleep. This was the first night of our Honeymoon!!!! Ruined!!! Who is the owner???? No one will tell me. I want a call from the owner not the manager. Terrible terrible terrible

expensive, helpless staff”
The staffs were helpless. I came wet and asked if it was possible to check in before 3 because I was completely wet. They said they had to ask the housekeeping but then no result. At 3 p.m I came to receptionist, approached the curly girl, she said "I just signed off, my work time is done, so she handed me to the other recptionist). I had to wait about 30 minutes until the other receptionist available to let me check in. It was expensive for 4 female beds, and service was awful. I asked about sightseeing and they couldn't answer it too.

Hidden fees”
$10 hidden fees at check-in that I didn’t see mentioned anywhere when I made my bookings, not a good first impression.

Unauthorized charge on my credit card, property doesn’t answer”
I was charged with 5.70 USD on my card what they asked to put on file, not received any information about the charge, any invoice. On my reservation shows all taxes and fees included. When I contacted with the property they didn’t answer to me and of course no refund. Disgusting attitude from the property. The building is really old and run down, room and bathroom dirty.

Mostly good”
Overall a good stay. Location is about 5min walk to beach, 2min walk to free trolley that can take you down to Lincoln St. Mall. Starbucks, small supermarket, subway, and few other eateries/coffee shops were 2min walk. Great pool area, but they shut it down and kick you out every night unless you stay and eat at the restaurant or drink at the bar. That was annoying. They have free bicycles you can use for 2hrs a day. It had a great vibe. One other frustration was my agoda booking said it already included all taxes and fees, but when I got there they still charged me the extra resort fees even though my booking clearly showed it included not just taxes but also fees. They still charged me.

Nice stay but extra charges apply... ”
The hostel is great in facilities, it is being cleaned daily and you get e. g. new towels. The problem is that thay charge $5 + tax per night which is not explained before... This makes the hostel more expensive than in reality... Hotel has a nice vibe in general Beds were comfortable, there is a drinking water dispenser as well in the lobby. Hostel has a hidden bar which might get noisy sometimes depending where your room windows are. Atm at lobby charges extra fee, of course. Sockets in beds are almost not working because they can't hold the socket. It should be renovated, everyone uses electronic devices and it's very annoying...
