The hotel was a great location, clean and comfortable, but on the last day the AC from the room broke we asked for assistance and they said that they could not help us or give us a new room. It was so difficult to sleep when the temperature was 80 degree. In addition to this if you are in a hurry, do not use the valet Parking, it takes 30 m to 45 m for them to get your car.

The reviews had me terrified. I tried to cancel the day before but I had to see it through. I actually had a nice stay. The staff was friendly, my room was clean (no bugs, thank God) and the area was walkable. The only issue I had was my key was not working. I had to get assistance a few times and the water pressure was terrible. Overall cute room, comfortable bed and the whole staff was nice!

Hello Yamileth. Since we are a warm weather destination, insects are common in Miami, but weekly preventive maintenance is performed at the property to avoid these instances. Please accept our apologies if this was your experience. Our bathrooms have running water, if there was an issue, we would ask that you contact our staff to look into it further. We're disappointed you did not have an enjoyable stay, but we appreciate your feedback.

Hotel doesnt have parking, mandatory valet parking for $43 each day. The property is near everything in Miami Beach, but it is not clean, (i found a used tampon in the bathroom and it was definitely not mine) the hotel doesnt have coffee or microwave, so its a "you get what you pay for" kind of hotel.

Response from TM, Guest Relations on 25 Apr 2024
Hello Dina, thank you for your review. We are a historic Art Deco hotel, so we don’t have a garage or parking lot, but valet service is offered as an optional amenity through a third party. Our rooms are cleaned prior to each guests arrival, so our housekeeping staff would not confirm a room in that condition. We appreciate your feedback.

Hello Alberto, thank you for your review. Since we are a historic Art Deco hotel, despite the upkeep and renovations, it may take a moment for the hot water to adjust. Leaving the tap open for a minute or two will typically solve the problem. Our apologies for any inconvenience. We appreciate your review.

The location was nice. Parking to check in was awful. The room smelled so bad I stayed out more than in the room and it wasn't because of the entertainment. I was visiting for a funeral.However valet guy and front desk staff were great. Property needs to drop rates or educate the cleaning staff. I think I deserve a partial refund.
