Review highlights

Excellent location (close to beach, malls and good airport access)Free on-site parking (rare in the area)Friendly/helpful reception staff (positive mentions, e.g. Casimir)Nice decor/design that creates a resort-like feelSuitable for short stays where location is the priorityPoor cleanliness (stained sheets, reports of insect bites, cracked tile causing injury)Room quality is dated: terrible mattresses, damaged furniture and dark roomsAged and potentially unsafe facilities (old elevator)Weak Wi‑Fi and minimal/poor breakfast offeringInconsistent or problematic management behavior (isolated aggressive incident, unresponsive emails)Occasional issues with luggage handling and check-in/check-out service

Cleanliness4.5/10: Multiple reviews report dirty/stained sheets, cracked tile that caused an injury and reports of insect bites; overall cleanliness is a clear weakness.
Service8.7/10: Service is mixed but often positive: several guests praise friendly reception staff (special mention to Casimir) and helpfulness; however there are isolated but serious negative incidents (aggressive behaviour from an owner/manager, unresponsive emails) that lower consistency.
Location9.7/10: Consistently praised — very close to the beach, malls and with good airport access; many guests highlight the excellent, convenient location.
Room Quality4.0/10: Rooms are described as very dated: bad mattresses, damaged bed bases, dark/old rooms, and safety concerns (old elevator); room condition is a major negative.
Amenities8.1/10: Positive points include free on-site parking and appealing decor; negatives include weak Wi‑Fi, no water fountain, and aged facilities (elevator), giving an overall good-but-aged amenities profile.
Value for Money7.7/10: Mixed value: free parking and excellent location add value, but worn rooms, poor breakfast offering (only coffee and a stale pastry reported) and maintenance issues make the price feel high for some guests.
Food and Beverage7.7/10: Very limited offerings reported — breakfast often not as advertised (minimal coffee/donut) and no drinking-water stations; acceptable for basic stays but below expectations for a higher-tier breakfast.

Something special, you love it or hate it My absolute favourite hotel. A hotel, not like much others. Art deco Sleeping very well and parking

Didn't like: Nothing. It’s old and it shows. Here, it’s a part of the style

I would suggest it for a short stay The parking is very useful, the receptionist was nice and large rooms. It’s close to the beach.

Didn't like: One of the bed was broken, ants in the room and not very clean.

this is a good place for a few days, if you are looking to be semi close to the cruise port No breakfast provided. It is close to South Beach and is good for a few days' stay.

Didn't like: very dated

Location

Didn't like: The hotel looks attractive from outside. The lobby is nice but floors and my room were looked awful

Near to the beach Location super close to the beach. The rooms are simple but enough if your priority is staying close to beach. One of the reasons that made me choose this hotel was the free parking. The parking is very tight for big cars and you have to leave the keys in case they need to move your car.
