Average Not to impressed - user review Hotel was curb appeal ok, the only thing I didn't like about this hotel is that the maintenance personel are so slow so it might happen that your room gets maintenance at 5:00 p.m. The short access to the beach is great, the pool is great too. The restaurant in the hotel is 2 thums down, specially f... expedia.com
Dezerland needs help - user review I and a couple of friends stayed here in September 2006. The first room we stayed in was tolerable, until one of us started itching.

Best bargain on the beach. - user review I found this place about five years ago and I keep going back. It's in North Beach, right on the ocean.

But if you just wa... expedia.com
Not the Best Stay Ive Had in Miami - user review I obviously had to pay a bit more than the normal rate for this hotel room during the Super Bowl, but even at it's normal rate it would not be my first, second, third, fourth, or fifth choice in the North Miami Beach area. The hotel lobby was fine, but when the elevator opened on the eighth floor, t... expedia.com
Great Hotel for the money - user review I really liked this hotel. The only complaint I might have is that the bathroom is a little small.
