Great Stay!

Great place to book if you’re here for a good time! Being above Palace was a bit loud at times, but if you’re a sound sleeper it’s no problem at all. The elevator does tend to take a while when coming down from your room, but there’s 2 staircases available if you’re in a rush (oddly enough going up from the lobby doesn’t take long at all). Overall, this was a simple and comfortable experience. Will definitely rent this unit again!

Everything you ever need is here. This place has spectacular views of the ocean both from the balcony and the roof top pool. The place is clean and staff are helpful. The location is also perfect to all of south beach's hot spots! Can't wait to come back in March!

Good location, but room was lacking

Great location in the middle of everything in South Beach. The room had seen better days, flooring beat up, toilet running, flimsy balcony furniture. Basically just a place to flop when you’re done sightseeing and partying.

Fun in South Beach

Loved this location. Great view from the 4th floor across bustling Ocean drive to the park, beach and ocean beyond. It was noisy as described, but just added to the fun. Walking distance to everything including the Art Deco museum which offers a wonderful audio walking tour. The roof top bar and pool was a plus; great spot for sunset.

Great!

If you are coming to enjoy the party at the Palace (the LBGTQ bar that is adjacent to the apartment), then this is the place for you. This is not a place for a quiet relaxing vacation. We loved watching the show from our balcony and people watching too. The noise did not bother us at all. The police presence is heavy, which we liked and made us feel safe walking around at night. The apartment was great for our stay!

This place was in an excellent location. Right in the heart of Ocean Drive.

The only downfall to this rental was the lighting in the bathroom. Need to invest in better lighting in the bathroom. And the place received a 4 star in cleanliness because it was just alittle dusty, but nothing a quick wipe down wouldnt solve. Other then that, this place was excellent. I loved the balcony overlooking ocean drive and the restaurant Palace on the ground level. I would definitely recommend this rental and will definitely go back and stay here again. That's for this great location.

Location is everything

Stayed here for a birthday trip and enjoyed every minute. We arrived a little early and was able to checkin. Access to the rooftop pool is great and towels were provided. The location is in the middle the party scene so would not recommend if you are looking for a relaxing quiet environment. We were able to take a nap in the middle of the day so it’s not noisy all day. Would recommend a slip mat in the shower but the water pressure was great and plenty of hot water. Great access to the beach, restaurants, and night life. Views are great especially in the morning for sunrise. The balcony doors are hard to open and heavy but the balcony is great to enjoy the views and people watch.

Right on Ocean View Drive

Location was right in the heart of Ocean View Drive. Roof top pool was nice. Cleanliness of room was not acceptable, informed front desk and owners…no one really cared. Layers of dust on the light fixtures, not clean behind the tub, popcorn and dust under the bed upon arrival, sticky counters. We even found a pill on the floor…thankful we weren’t traveling with little ones. If you are traveling with family, North Beach may be a better option.

OK place, fun area

Room was quite dirty and old overall. Much of the kitchen and utensils were old, bent or non existent. The noise at night from 7pm to midnight is a pounding bass and very loud. It is in the past notes from others, but understand it is very loud. The rooftop pool becomes an open bar with anyone able to walk up the stairs so is very busy in the evenings. The porch overlooking Ocean Ave and looking out over the beach is delightful. Walking out the hotel, across the street and onto the beach and walking path, and to many different restaurants is great. The hotel staff is often cold and unhelpful. Rob, the owner was very kind and helpful.

South Beach at its best

We stayed here for a week around Halloween. The suite is exactly as described. It is on the (first European/second US) floor above the restaurant of the hotel which means it's very loud especially after the diners left and the party people arrive after 10:00 pm. But, hey, you booked a place on Ocean Drive! The pool of the hotel is nice, but sometimes the music is too loud (I guess they call it "Dayclub"). It's also not heated. Chairs at the beach, which is right across the park, are $ 20 per day. It might be better to buy one at Wallgreens. Rob, the owner, was very friendly and even granted us a late check-out. Parking is best at the Municipal Parking on 13th street, two blocks away. An overall positive experience!

Great location, had a great time!

Location is perfect ! Right on ocean drive and across from the beach. Plenty of great spots for food and drink. Some people complain about the noise but we enjoyed hanging on the balcony at night people watching and relaxing with a cold beverage. Palace bar below was a blast! Wife and I had never been to a drag show but it was fun! As far as the room it was good and looked like the pictures . Bed very comfortable. Only issue is the sliding glass doors. The one in the bedroom does not open at all and the other one is very hard to open. Needs attention as my wife got stuck on the balcony and had to knock on the window to wake me up to open it for her to come back in Please have maintenance take a look. Otherwise happy with the unit. Thanks Rob and Val! Had a great time at your place!

JUST OKAY

The front desk staff was really nice (Stephanie) The unit it self could use some tender loving care. The view was great. We had to always request towels from the front desk, we never received the one day of tiding up and making the bed as stated and we paid for. Online it says one price and after booking they give you another price be aware of that. The mattress on the bed was very lumpy not good if you have a bad back. The noise from the club did not bother us. I just wished we would have gotten better service for the price we paid. Warm Regards

Be wary of the area

We weren't notified that the whole area's roads were closed for spring break. We had to park a few blocks away and drag all of our luggage 3 blocks through huge crowds. Someone was drunk and peeing in a cup sitting on the floor in the elevator as the door opened in the lobby. There were vendor booths set up all the way down the street between the condo and the beach view. It was straight chaos. We left after 14 hours despite the no refund policy. We didn't know about the 2 shootings (one was just a few blocks away) until after we left. The area has really gone downhill. And the warnings of not using the safe in the room or the on-site parking (couldn't use on-site parking because you couldn't drive anywhere within 3 blocks of it due to road closures) made it feel unsafe as well.

Amazing Views

My husband and I will definitely stay here again. Everything was exactly as described. The views are AMAZING!!! We really enjoyed having some meals on the patio…and people watching. The noise in the other reviews really wasn’t that bad. We’re in South Beach - we didn’t mind, and I’d say by midnight it wasn’t bad at all. The patio doors kept out a lot of the music. The property is within walking distance to every thing you need, and a $20 cab ride will get you to Bayside Marketplace (was a fun place to visit). If going to the grocery store…Keep in mind…kitchenette - light meals. Not a “full-service” kitchen. My only recommendation is to be prepared to grab some cleaning supplies. I had to clean as the counters and the drawer handles were very sticky, and there was food/crumbs on the floor. Behind the tub was pretty bad. It didn’t even bother me because I was so pleased with ever else. Also…they open the staircase to the pool and announce at the bar below that there’s a rooftop pool. So I think at times it’s more of a public pool. Again, didn’t bother me. I came here for the beach and the amazing views not the pool. Overall Amazing!!!

A week on ocean drive

When we arrived, neither TV was working, chair was broken, kitchen units were stained and one was falling apart at the base. The pull out unit was broken but didn't affect its use. Two of the bed side lamps didn't work. We were warned that the apartment could be loud until midnight but nothing prepare us for what we faced. Unfortunately, with the TVs not working, we could not even drown our the constant sound of the bar below The Palace), it was rediculously and the loudest bar on ocean drive. We asked the reception if they could sort the issues and was told that they would send a message to the owners but it would be them who would need to resolve the problems. This took 2 days just to get a reply from the owners and we were told that we had complained through the wrong site. We were also advised that the TVs were as a result of previous tenants not re-setting the source correctly. To be fair, the TVs were resolved on the 3rd day, a new chair was brought in (that didn't match the existing chair), the broken bar on the pullout kitchen and the preperation table was removed. Unfortunately, we couldn't get out on one of the balcony's because the door was seized, the main patio sliding door was very stiff and difficult to open and the bedside lights were not addressed throughout the duration of our stay.
