November 19 2007: I've probably stayed at this hotel a dozen times over the past few years, and the reason for that is simple: it's an affordable (for Miami), clean, stylish, comfortable hotel. The rooms vary from your standard twin bed experience, to rooms with a seperate bedroom, dining area, kitchenette and two bathrooms. Every time I have stayed at this hotel my room has always been quiet, clean, and comfortable. For me, that's all I ask from a hotel. And they've always delivered. Room service is decent, they have a nice pool and bar area, and the hotel is located right in the heart of Coconut Grove, close to restaurants, bars, shopping, and Biscayne Bay. Valet parking is pricey - about $20 a day, but again, this IS Miami. I'm sure there are more expensive, hip hotels to be found on South Beach, but for me, this hotel works perfectly fine.
