Location was perfect. At the Ocean Drive just a few steps to the beaches. We had an Apartment on the backside of the building. It was very quiet during the night. Within a half a mile you can find everything you need. The accommodation was clean, the room is well equipped to prepare breakfast/lunch.Very easy and quick communication with our host Lee.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location
The location is fantastic and quiet for South Beach/Ocean Drive as it is at the back of the building. The owner and assistant were easily available when we initially couldn’t access the property which was great. The kitchen was very well appointed and equipped with everything you could need, including ice in the freezer. There is a Publix within walking distance so no need to pay the high prices to eat out all the time. Some really helpful extra touches like coffee machine and filters, beach parasol etc were great. The property itself was clean but some aspects were rather dated, including the bathroom and the towels and linen could do with a refresh. Our biggest concern was the bed arrangement for our family of 4 adults. The double bed is comfortable but the sofa bed is very old and uncomfortable and only suitable for one adult. The additional foldout bed was extremely narrow, with a very thin mattress. Neither of the additional beds were conducive to a good nights sleep for 2 additional adults unfortunately. A comfortable new sofa bed and some new linen/towels would make all the difference.

Great location

We had a wonderful stay in this apartment. It has everything you need and we appreciated that it was also quiet in the midst of Ocean drive. The queen size bed is on the soft side (memory foam) and the sofa bed is very firm, but we made it work.There was an electrical issue during our stay that was taken care of the next day. Lee is very responsive to anything that is needed and easy to communicate with.

Great location!

The place was great, I'd definitely go back and also recommend it to friends. There was a stale cigarette smell coming from somewhere (the building's A.C.?), but after a couple of minutes it's unnoticeable. We also bought a lemon scented candle at the nearby CVS. Nearby Puerto Sagua restaurant is a good place for breakfast and other times you don’t want to spend a lot on food.

Fun Girl Trip

The property was very nice. Lee was very good to communicate with us. When we first arrived to the loud music at the bar/restaurant in front of the building we were a little nervous but we did not hear the noise in the apartment at all. The location is by far the best part about this apartment. Right across the street from the beach, close to a liquor store, grocery store, CVS and Walgreens not to mention a large variety of restaurants and night time entertainment. 2 blocks from the free trolley or bus routes. The apartment had beach chairs, beach mats, beach towels and an umbrella. Such a bonus!!! The only thing that I would say could use improvement is the access to the building was sometimes hard to get into, and the hallways are so dark that it made it hard to get into the room at night. Easier access would be great. The halls were noisy when people would come and go. Some of this may be due to the oldness of the building. With that being said, that is part of the appeal of the building and why we chose it. The sofa bed was a little hard but that seems typical of sofa beds. Overall I give this property and Lee a 5 star rating and I would stay here again. Thank you for your hospitality.
