1. One complaint though is the price of drinks at the bar, a Margharita in a plastic glass and a bottle of Bud $25 including tip, which we have noticed that this has now gone to being added onto every bill in South Beach at a whopping 18%.

"Friendly Hotel in an ideal location " Read full review on TripAdvisor 12/30/2009 Vote

2. And tip is added to all the bills down there - even just drink orders from the bar.

"Great Hotel, great location " Read full review on TripAdvisor 10/20/2009 Vote

3. We never, ever, ever, ever use anything from the minibar in any hotel - it's just not worth the cost - in fact we never even open or touch the thing, yet on the morning of check out we found an item billed to my account (see other reviews here - seems to be a common hotel trick).

4. interesting when we came to pay our bill and put it on the room.

6. So to start my getaway for the weekend from tampa here, I sat in traffic for no reason, I was pissed at paying cash rather than have the hotel add it to my bill as they have in the past.

7. My hotel bill for one night was $** more than what the online travel website was advertising.

8. Also watch your bill they attend to charge you for stuff you haven't use at the minibar.

"not worth the price at all " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/29/2008 Vote

9. Billed as an Art-Deco hotel, which is not beneficial to guests.

"Loud, dirty, and lame service. " Read full review on TripAdvisor 1/12/2008 Vote

10. There are several moderatly priced Art Deco Hotels in South Beach that don't appear to be concerned about the people paying their bills.
