Miami Beach Resort & Spa

Stayed here over the summer. Place is run down and more expensive than expected. They are living off the fact they are walking distance to Fontainebleau Hotel. No coolers allowed through pool area, even if going to beach - even though beach is public and coolers, etc. are allowed. The manager was arrogant and basically told us to stay elsewhere if we weren't happy. I can guarantee that'll be the case in the future. more

This hotel has not been renovated since it was built. The rooms are tiny, the walls have chipped paint all over them and the management was very unhelpful and rude. Do yourself a huge favor and save your money. I have seen a lot of hotels and this one is not worth more than $50 per night Pros: nothing Cons: dirty, small rooms, chipped paint more

Well for starters, there was hair in my bed and on my bathroom floor at check in; perhaps this is why the room was so dimly lit...they didn't want me to see the hair and stains! Things only got worse as my toliet began gushing water at 3 am...apparently, a part was on order! Yes, they rented a room knowing full well the toliet was broken. I loved the fact that the ogre-like security guard accompanied the engineer to my room at 3 am! Did they actually think I was ripping up their toliet?!? After they fixed it, it happened again!!! You'd better have a car if you stay here as there's nothing within walking distance...and you'll need it as food is scarce!!! The only meal I could count on is breakfast. Vegetarians will die here as their poolside grill has little to no options, not to mention the bistro/bar. The server was exceedingly rude and refused to serve us as the hostess didn't seat us there! And the very last night of my oh-so-long stay ended with the police cuffing a kid in front of the hotel! Stay away! Pros: Well, it had a bed... Cons: The lighting, gushing toliets, lack of food/options, nothing nearby, ogre-like security guard more

don't order the fruit basket, but the hotel itself was great. the pool was amazing, the view was perfect. my vacation was too short. next time i return i'm staying there again. Pros: friendly staff, prompt service, close to south beach more
