1. I found it to be very firm and had a hard time sleeping.

2. However, the rooms were extremely small, no continental breakfast, no shower pressure with intermittent, extreme temperature changes, hard bed, loud air conditioning.

3. Room service menu sucked too, I ordered a hamburger (hard to mess up) and it came to the room raw in the middle.

4. There was a weird smell upon entering the room but it wasnt something that was unbearable, just maybe a smell that is hard to get out without opening windows & with wet towels/swimsuits from the beach hanging in there all the time I can understand why.

5. Small elevator for only 3 people at a time but we hardly ever had to wait for it.

6. The contradictory reviews on TripAdvisor made it very hard to chose a reasonable priced SB hotel, so we decided to wing it.

"Up and coming South Beach Hotel " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/10/2008 Vote

7. The only other issue was noise - between the construction going on outside and the thin walls, it was hard to sleep in, but we turned up the AC and that managed to drown out a decent amount of the noise.

8. A great staff is hard to find any where never mind in South Beach.
