    Some things to be aware of. - There is no elevator, but the front desk staff offered help with my luggage. - Street parking in front of the building is paid, but free from midnight to 9:00 AM. Free parking is available around the block on Zamora St. Overall, this is a great value given the location, the staff was kind and helpful, and I really enjoyed the general atmosphere and aesthetic of this place.

    It’s old looking hotel. The guy when we arrived was very old. Not nice at all. We had to carry our luggage up the stairs. No elevator. The shower floor was old looked dirty. The two beds were full size and not nice to sleep on. Uncomfortable. The Latin women on the next day was a angel very sweet nice and helpful. Will I return probably not.

    When I first arrived, I immediately noticed issues with the room. The sink faucet was broken and barely attached, and the sink itself clogged almost instantly after turning the water on. Throughout the night, the air conditioner stopped working, and on top of that, the door kept rattling and making a loud, unusual noise whenever the AC was running, making it difficult to sleep. The most concerning part of my stay happened the next morning. When I tried to leave my room, I found a ladder placed directly in front of my door, along with a large, loud hose running up it. I was essentially blocked in. I called out multiple times for assistance, but no one came. I ultimately had to squeeze past the obstruction myself, which resulted in my clothing getting dirty. When I brought these issues to the front desk, I felt completely dismissed. My concerns were not taken seriously, and I was simply told they would be passed along, without any real acknowledgment or effort to address what had happened. This experience fell far below expectations, both in terms of room maintenance and customer service. I hope management takes these concerns seriously and makes improvements so future guests do not have a similar experience.

    It is a very pleasant historic place dating back to the 1920's with photos and newspaper clipping on the walls. The building and rooms are well kept and clean. Staff were kindly and helpful. While no car parking is provided, on the street parking on side streets is free and seemed safe. Only criticism I have is that there was a lack of hot water in the shower and bathroom sink. Otherwise a great experience and excellent location.

    There is meter parking in front on the street, but the gentleman who checked us in told us the side streets are free parking and we had no trouble at all finding a close spot, even after we got back from the symphony later on in the evening. It was perfect!

    The bed was comfortable, yet there was no blanket! A throw blanket placed on the bed as a decoration had to fit the bill. The wardrobe was old and refinished. However, the doors didn’t stay closed, so they would swing out into the room unexpectedly. But I was able to fix it so it would stay closed during my stay. The bathroom had been updated and nicely appointed, but was fitted with. 2’ x 2’ shower, with a small shower head coming straight down from the ceiling. No way to get out of the path of the water to lather up, and the faucet handle was the kind you pulled up and turned to adjust the temp and flow. This not only reduced the area in the shower, but was easy to hit while showering, creating a sudden change in water temperature and/or flow. The shower curtain was plastic, and the convection currents caused it to move into the shower area. Some magnetic weights at the bottom of it would be useful to keep that from occurring. The bathroom was also slightly elevated by about 4 inches, creating a trip hazard. After tripping twice, I placed a pillow on the threshold to remind me to watch my step. All that aside, I would stay there again, should I need to stay in the area.

    The room's air conditioning system is very noisy. If you're a light sleeper, think twice before booking this room. Also, when you open the window, you might see a large wall. Don't worry, it's just a wall.

    I loved this hotel! It is charming and has been around for a very long time, maybe even historic. As a result, there are not amenities that you would get at a new hotel. I still enjoyed it, and will stay there again when I return to Coral Gables in November. It is reasonably priced, very clean, wonderful staff, fantastic location, and quaint. I recommend it!

    Absolutely my favorite place to stay in Miami and one of my favorite hotels anywhere. It’s the 1923 building, the cost, the area, and the low stress check in and check out. It helps if you speak a bit of Spanish but not completely needed. I will always stay here when I’m in Miami!

    Our one issue with the place is the parking situation. If you're lucky, you can nab a spot directly in front of the hotel, but be aware: you have to pay for parking online. We were not told this by the front desk, and being out of towners, we ended up with a $36 ticket!..Ugh The hotel could be a little more informative about this.

Only complaint is the hotel is dated, especially the bathroom needs updating. Very small rooms which were fine for us, but might not be for others who like bigger spaces.

    Simple old hotel in a great location. It has a sort of old Florida feel. Everything is dated but housekeeping is good. Friendly staff and ambitious decoration. The air conditioning works well but since the windows aren’t airtight the humidity changes with the humidity outside. We were very grateful for having a pantry and table in the room.

The trolley stop is just in front of the hotel. Only downside was that sometimes I could hear the guests ringing the front desk bell at night (my room was above the front desk). The main door stays open and that is a great plus. Highly recommend.

The staff are very friendly and courteous and I always tip because the staffing ladies go above and beyond ensuring I have towels and linens and room is to my liking. Front office gentleman was very nice and made sure I checked right in upon arrival. Thank you so much and I will definitely be back again SOON!!!

    The location is great. This property gets a 2 star because there was a flying cockroach in the room. We noticed it 5min after entering the room and the front desk person ridiculously asked if we brought food into the room. We literally stepped into the room and saw. They then strayed the room with roach spray but we requested a different room which they gave us so overall was ok but the presence of the roach and the reaction from the front desk person wasn’t.

    Way to expensive for what it is ,$170 per night for a room that has no special amenities. They hand you a regular house key and the door is a normal door anyone can break into.

    Quaint older hotel but in a nice area. Only complaint was no elevator but we knew that before booking.

    The worst was the absence of windows in the room. Description on this must be very clear from the beginning, plus elevator absence.
