A good hotel that's maybe past it's prime – First, the good things about the hotel: It's at the very end of Ocean Dr on South Beach but still close enough to the the action of the night life of South Beach. It took only a couple of minutes walk to where all the bars, nightclubs and resturants were located. The beds are soft as are the pillows. There is a small computer room with 3 computers with high speed internet access and but spotty wireless across the hotel. For the days we used room service, the room was thoroughly cle... read more

Our vacation was ruined ... read more

Good service – There was good service. We got there early and left our bags up front. It was a bit disappointing trying to haul our heavy luggage up the stairs since there's no elevator. This hotel is nicely located OUT of the busy nightlife, however the hustle and bustle of this Island was still too loud for a good sleep. The room we had was nice, small but good enough for one night. The 'breakfast' wasn't anything of interest to me when I went to look. The retro style of it is posh.

A period-style lobby makes this a Deco classic. – The Scene The spacious lobby of this Albert Anis-designed Art-Deco hotel hasn't changed much since it was built in 1939--just check out the vintage photo on one wall for proof. The upholstery has gotten a makeover from loud florals to a more subdued monochromatic look of rattan and leather. A small martini bar is situated in the corner of the entrance. Picture windows lead out onto a front terrace. The lobby continues up to a mezzanine level where small gatherings are held. T... read more
