Relaxing and very affordable

Really nice to have a studio apartment while traveling for weeks. Cute, fun funky throwback. Excellent communication and cold a/c. Street is noisy in day, fine at night. Owner put in double pane too.

Unique, clean, and quiet. Large living space with a full kitchen. Within walking distance of cool, bohemian restaurants and shops. It’s an older Florida property - well maintained, but real deal old Miami, (blocks away from an ancient Tequesta burial mound), so like a little rust here and there but nothing dirty or sticky. Nothing like a high end hotel, but I would definitely stay there again.

Was perfect for our weekend stay. Not too far from downtown Miami, grocery stores are about a 5 minutes drive, located in a cute neighborhood. Would highly recommend.

Segunda vez que ficamos na propriedade. Bem conveniente. Eu acho que está precisando de um UP na decoração/pintura/limpeza de armários. Mas super recomendo.

Not great.

Killed a roach within a few min of being there. Tv remote wouldn't fully work leaving the TV useless. Contacted Mike who said they would replace the remote the next day, no good to us we would be gone. Seen another roach later.

The property was very old than the pictures that I saw at the time of booking, bad smell at the room, homeless people around, the remote for the TV was not working, bad smell on the bathroom, the property team does not pick up any call and they don’t hear your problem. But the lady in the housekeeping department was very nice and kind.

전체적으로 괜찮은 숙소입니다 주차도 편했습니다 다만 도로가에 위치하여 밤에 차소리가 조금 신경쓰였다는점 아쉬웠지만 가격대비 괜찮은 숙소라고 생각됩니다.
