Hotel quite quiet and not far from the airport for a traveler in transit Clean, indoor pool, gym I had a great view of a golf course

Breakfast included in the price of the room, not diversified enough but enough to be satisfied Shuttle available on request both on arrival and on return Very courteous and helpful staff I had a pretty good time On arrival also a list of restaurants in the area is offered If you are passing through Miami and you want a hotel not far from the airport, you can choose this Best Western Plus, you will not regret it

Persistent Dreams

Nice hotel located about ten minutes from the airport terminals They have a free shuttle to and from the airport that runs from 4:00 AM to midnight so that’s a definite plus They even took us back just to have our COVID tests done and picked us again

The rooms are clean and spacious, the bed large and comfortable, and everything worked Water pressure is excellent; love the new rainfall shower heads It even included a small refrigerator and microwave along with the coffee maker The buffet breakfast included in the room price was decent and plentiful and it also starts at 6:30 AM, which is a plus if you have an early day There is a small indoor pool, but we never got a chance to use it and a business center where you can print boarding passes and other documents Would stay here again

Good – It was close to the airtport and the room was clean and what we expected There was good wifi and the free breakfast was really quite good Front desk staff was pleasant and we were able to extend our stay another night when we needed to at the last minute

Bad – The hotel pictures are a brighter than reality, although technically it looks like that Amazing what some lighting can do The room smells a bit old/ musty We had to wait for the shuttle from the airport to the hotel for 40-45 minutes (when it was only supposed to 15-20) The driver forgot to pick us up 🙁 There are a couple of places to eat that you can walk to, but not a lot

Upon arriving I was greeted by a beautiful lady, her name was Phoebe, VERY sweet and wonderful to me I told her if their were more people like her, the world would be a much better place She knows what great customer service is, and she went above and beyond to give that

The check in process was quick This hotel EXCEEDED my expectations The design of the room was BRILLIANT I fell in love with that, you don’t see a different layout too often these days My room was super clean and the air conditioning was wonderful I will always come back to this exact hotel when I return to Miami*My only suggestion would be to consider leaving the pool open a little later for adults, maybe 11:00PM? Just a suggestion, but no complaints I will definitely be back!!!

MEB

This was a nice and convenient place next to the airport Would have given it 5 stars but the female receptionist wasn’t welcoming and seemed to be bothered by any interaction or request The first room we were assigned had a leak so we had to move

The maintenance men provided better service than she did and were very accommodating The restaurant was fast, had great food and service The airport shuttle was timely and the gentleman driving it was helpful All in all good other than the receptionist who could use an understanding of customer service

Flooring Masters & Professional Remodelers

I’d have given five starts if it weren’t for the shower above our room leaking (pouring water) down over our heads while we were in our shower bathing Kinda grossed us out We have video to confirm our statement

Even with this happening had the management offered some sort of discount or refund I’d have given five starts We understand that stuff happens, customer service should have acknowledged it however Other than that, very nice place, excellent bar and food Friendly staff

I had a 12 hour layover from Trinidad back to Vegas, and refused to sleep in the airport So, I decided to book this hotelIt’s appropriately a 7 minute drive from the airport

The hotel is very much modern, clean and the bed was very comfortable! They serve free breakfast from 7-9 if you book directly from the hotels website In addition to free coffee from around 6am I didn’t have the opportunity to taste any of it, because I left early for my 830am flightChecking in was smooth They hold a $30 on your card for incidentalsWhen I read previous reviews, people wrote that it was so noisy, because it was near the airport I only heard two ” loud” planes Nothing major, and I only heard it because I was up doing work on my computer It’s amazing the differences in people’s perception That’s why you have to experience it yourselfThey have a microwave, and refrigerator in the room, and microwavable food downstairs in the lobby They also have snacks and ice cream for purchase The front desk representative told me there was a Latino restaurant about a block awayLoved my stay , and I would definitely be returning, if I have another long layoverOne minor thing, they don’t have the free shuttle service, and it wasn’t listed on my reservation I waited for it like 15 minutes from the airport, then I called, and that’s when they informed me The service has been suspended since the beginning of the pandemicMy uber ride at 930pm to the hotel was $11:72 To the airport around 6:00 am was $7:51 So, it’s not expensive at allAgain, great location and stay

ron evans

This Holiday inn was very convenient to the airport We literally walk to the airport from this hotel Bring ear plugs because you will hear the planes taking off

This is not a problem with the hotel it’s just super close to the airport I think it would be unavoidable Our rooms were clean the beds were comfortable and the staff was very attentive Steph was amazing! She was so friendly so accommodating genuinely wanted to make sure that we had a great stay she is the best!

Erin Chen

Pretty good airport holiday inn Friendly staff, easy check in We booked king but called to changed to two beds and was confirmed the changing room type, however, it was still a king when we arrived

The front desk was super nice offer us extra beddings for our kids, one ended up on the couch, one on the floor They are kids, happy to sleep in camping style Room is nice and comfy, all amenities are there Nice breakfast in the morning Cant beat the location for airport and cruise port Will be back

Oh now that I see this is a hostel as well, it makes sense My friends and I rented the entire place on Airbnb for a weekend It was large and accommodating, but we found it strange that all the rooms were numbered and now we know why

The kitchen was very under stocked, so I wouldn’t expect to cook anything unless you bring everything The bathroom was also not stocked with body wash/soap and there was only enough towels for each guest to have exactly one It would be nice if they had more towels and made sure that the bathrooms had soap The home was very clean overall, but I would suggest that they not use so many plug-ins The fragrant smell was overpoweringGood location

Anton Vorgin

Hello! I liked this hotel, it has a good location, it was convenient for me to get from the hotel and back to the hotel The hotel has its own parking also a very reasonable price !!! the hotel consists of three two-story buildings, on each floor there are 5 rooms, one shared toilet with shower and a shared kitchen equipped with a refrigerator, stove, microwave and coffee machine, as well as a toaster

the rooms are not big, but everything is clean and tidy! overall this is a good offer on the hotel market!

J.G. Weeks Jr.

This place is great I haven’t even finished my stay, but after a couple nights here I can honestly say this place is awesome It’s a hostel, as plainly advertised, so it has shared spaces, which is definitely an experience and kind of fun

The bedrooms are private and locked via key codes It’s super clean, cool, and comfortable, and the service is amazing The price cannot be beat for the accommodation

Beautiful hotel Came here on a volunteer voucher The hotel room is very clean and stunning

Smells incredible and includes all you will need as complimentary little things The pool area is incredible and has a bunch of games for the kiddos on a hidden little area past the laundry mat Very friendly bartender/server I got a chicken Caesar my bf got a Cuban sandwich and coconut shrimp I was craving a salad and it def hit w the chicken The coconut shrimp was bomb and intense flavor w it’s little mango salad on top

Vanny Thach

Everything was nice and modernly designed Comfortable king bed Aestethic lighting

Food was delicious and staff was extremely friendly Very down to earth and better than any hotel I’ve been to so far The only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars was because the floor I stayed on (6th) reeked of a lingering mildew smell Probably from the carpets being constantly wet from pool-goers? Oh yeah, and the rooftop pool and layout was incredible!

Neil Ledford

I have stayed at hotels over 1000 nights of my lifeThis place is way over priced! I have no issue with paying 500 per night for a room if it warrants thatHotel staff as a whole was catered to Latin community

Even to them, they weren’t exactly helpfulThe breakfast had no real variety Burned croissants, odd breads For $15 breakfast with almost non existent staff, we were much happier at Dennys up the street 3 blocks30 dollar per night parking in a garage that smells like pee The “security” at the gate acted like he only spoke SpanishI have lifetime Mariott rewards at the silver level- but currently Gold member, and I can say you are better off giving this place a hard pass as it’s not worth more than 150 per nightThe thermostat is motion sensitive, installed directly next to the bed Our group was woken up probably 20 times per night from that aloneThe sheets were always a bit damp from the humidity The decor- they were selling paintings they were putting up during breakfastA truly odd experience

From the friendliest of the staff at the front desk to the cleanliness of the rooms, there is no other words but to say but wow Very professional and would highly recommend to friends and family also makes a great choice for temporary housing for those that need it due to the size of the rooms plus the kitchenette I just wish they had an oven lol

Deanna Foy

I had an extremely bad experience with the front desk hostess, Rachel who was very disrespectful to myself and my parents My parents made a reservation through a 3rd party and paid for a one night stay When my mom tried to give Rachel her confirmation number there was already an undertone of an attitude with Rachel

My mom asked what room will we be staying in and Rachel said, that a room number wasn’t assigned to us yet, which seemed out of the ordinary and then Rachel asked how will we be paying for our stay because our card was declined Rachel continued to say that very loudly in the lobby with other guest around which embarrassed my elderly parents, who knew that they paid for the room My parents were trying to tell her that they paid for the room and her only suggestion to us was to call the bank to verify the payment At this point I was getting irritated because I just finished driving over 4 hours to get to this hotel and Rachel was rude I wanted to understand what was happening and Rachel then told me that I should, “smile and say thank you to her” At that point I did not want to deal with her anymore While my dad was on the phone with our bank Rachel yelled across the lobby the last 4 digits of the card number, while other guest were in the lobby We spent another 20 minutes in the lobby tired and exhausted trying to figure out what happened with no help from Rachel (the 3rd party card decline, it wasnt our card) I worked as a hotel front desk agent for years and I would have never treated a guest the way she did or embarrassed a guest I would NOT suggest staying here, the customer service is awful, the rooms are decent, but the hotel doesn’t offer a shuttle service even though they are close to the airport, not worth the cost or the aggravation

Angie okon

Absolutely one of the worst experiences I’ve had and I travel a lot Checked out early The night stuff was nowhere to be found for at least 20 minutes when I arrived so I stood in the dark by myself

To make it worse there was cigarette smoke that was either outside of my room or next to my room so my room had a strong cigarette smell A package was delivered and no one called me to let me know that it had arrived… Just not a good experience I never write bad reviews but this experience was bad enough for me to do so

We have had a wonderful stay here Everyone has been so nice and helpfulI want to especially thank Angie for taking such great care of us

I told her about my love of Cuban Coffee and she made me some that day And then the next morning, while making my plate at the breakfast buffet, she brought me a freshly made Cuban Coffee She was truly a wonderful person Thank you so much She really made our stay

Katie McDonald

The woman that checked us in was great! Best part of the stay The evening clerk was exceptionally rude and seemed put out by the guests I saw walk to the desk Our room really want clean either

Styrofoam pieces in multiple places and the previous guests water bottles The sheets are very itchy and don’t fit the bed very well Door dash can not seem to find this place for deliveries either, it was a major headache It just isn’t somewhere we would stay again

D Rich

One night stay Located on the north side of MIA Two issues: (1) the elevator closest to the lobby was not in service and the secondary elevator was a long walk to get to it, so we had to use the stairs! (2) an alarm, possibly on airport property kept going off ALL NIGHT, so annoying! Would have been nice for a small discount due to both issues

The young man working the front desk when I arrived was very pleasant and engaging He did his job well and as the face of the hotel that evening, did the hotel justice by his pleasant demeanor

HAPPY HAPPY VIBES

Nice area However closet space one 🌟 Over all the lighting 2 stars It would be nice to actually have lighting in the shower

I dropped down the rating as I just checked my bill and saw a additional expense I called Hyde Midtown It seems they were missing a mini bar item The day I check out I spoke with management and ask for them to look into their own personel to have made sure all items were there when I check in, or if it was the same person replenishing and taking the items For this dishonesty in-house I am no longer happy with the experience of me staying at Hyde Park Midtown It could have been a honest mistake However I am not paying a extra $60 because someone decided to pull a fast one Specially when my room was left in immaculate condition

Chellee Littlejohn

My husband and I had the best experience at this hotel We only stayed 2 nights but could not have been happier with the experience We stayed in a suite and it was perfect and beautiful

The pool is fantastic But most importantly the people are some of the most impressive I’ve witnessed in the hospitality industry Post Covid it can be difficult to find truly service driven representatives Those that take pride in their job meanwhile providing a top notch experience to their customers We found that here and the star of the show was Marilyn at the front desk Overall this neighborhood is adorable offering one the chance to take in all that Miami has to offer with many things in walking distance or a short Uber ride away I recommend checking out Wynwood A beautifully fun and artistic up and coming neighborhood very near to this hotel Thank you again Hyde Suites

Ellie Cachette

Zero customer service Overpriced They will charge your card $150 per night authorization, as well as $22 a day resort fee atop of this and not refund your authorization if you don’t eat or use it

When you ask staff for any type or help they will become unpleasant and simply say “they don’t know”Save yourself $200+ extra a night in fees and skip this place

I had a hard time choosing a hotel in Miami and ended up going with this one We weren’t sure where we wanted to stay in town and we didn’t want to go with the priciest option, so this seemed like a good middle ground on all fronts It ended up working out well! It seemed to be 15-25 minutes from everything we wanted to see in Miami

The rooms were very nice and the hotel seemed new or at least recently renovated The staff was always friendly, especially the housekeepers we saw in hallways and on elevators The breakfast was passable–we mostly grabbed fruit and muffins Didn’t use the pool but it looked nice

JASON BLAKE

The room was 3hrs until ready and fine with the exception of the AC which was working fine when we got there but we went out and came back to the room the AC was barely keeping the room cool the shower pressure left a lot to be desired as it was a little more than just a trickle

Otherwise the staff was great and we had no other issues 🐻

brett brown

HorribleShort answer: 1)possible bed bugs or extremely poor washing of sheets2) Lack of hospitality to say at the Kindest way possible

3)Maid knocked on door at 8:30AM with the Do not disturb placard on the door4) Called Hilton Honors to address my concern and they patched me to the physical location at this Hampton Inn Management took my information and detailed account said he’d call back same day but never did For the money they charge DO not waste your dollar

Lowane Emerald

Nice place to stay Calm neighborhood in general But the wall are thin like paper and unfortunately, my daughter and I has to deal with an arguing couple noises all night long

We felt like we were in the same house😔 The kitchen is full option, the place was very clean and comfy Didn’t like the bed but it’s just a question of taste There are buses stops around, some food markets 8 min away at feet

Isis

From start to finish, staying here was seamless! We got the code for the lock box well before check in time and we were able to check in and out with no interaction with others Towels, shampoo, and body wash are provided and the room has many provided amenities Our only complaint was that the walls were extremely thin and we could hear every word our neighbor was saying as well as when they were using their television

Just take that into consideration as it resulted in lost sleep for us

Turney Maurer

I stayed at Cottages El Portal while I had to host several presentations throughout Miami/Naples/Boca Raton for the week It was the perfect location to get anywhere, and the neighborhood was very quiet Made sleeping at night easy especially with the AC unit by the window next to the bed

My room had a full kitchen so I was able to go get groceries down the street, like a 5 minute drive away I would highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a lowkey stay in a cool, authentic Miami neighborhood with gyms, great restaurants, and everything else you need nearby

Linda Trotter-Rhodes

We recently stayed here for two nights This hotel was clean, the room was great, 2 Queen Beds, and a Sofa Bed(we did not need) The linens and beds were very comfortable

The Breakfast in the morning was hot and fresh Plenty of items to chose from The Manager Jesus, on staff was so professional and helpful in many ways He gave us some great tips on Restaurants in the areas we had planed on visiting and answered many questions for us For a young man he will go far in this business or in anything direction he chooses I would certainly recommend this hotel and would stay here again

Kelsea Mills

I was skeptical due to the reviews but honestly This hotel was amazing Super clean, they allowed us to check in early We called in advance & they put our name on the waiting list to prioritize having our room cleaned for early check in

Beds were comfy! Pools were cold but didn’t expect much more due to the weather lol The morning breakfast was so good! The staff was friendly & they greet you at the door when you walk in This hotel was definitely a win & we will definitely be back!

john pfluger

Looks like all was pretty recently remodeled, but they missed desk chair fabric, bench fabric in breakfast area

strange, as good as everything else looked Also, staff could have been much more helpful with persistent room key/card not working Upon check in 5 visits to lobby before sending maintenance to unlock with master key No rooms left to switch us to so asked to have front desk dispatch maintenance to let us in each time we re enter after leaving? Definitely a pain

Very large and nice looking room, but when A/c was off room smelled of smoke, and bed was rock hard I slept well as I do anywhere but my wife had a rough couple of nights We did advise staff of smell and they were prepared to apply some kind of deodorizer but I told them it was fine as A/c was effective in removing it while we were there

All round staff was great with every encounter Was located conveniently close to where we were working

The hotel was clean and modern The price was reasonable I was slight taken aback by the fact that nobody came in to clean the room between nights because I haven’t traveled in awhile but the party I met for work advised that this is the new norm which I’m ok with

My only suggestions would be to offer a restaurant and rethink the bathroom cabinetry First, there were dining options a short drive away and some basic snacks in the lobby Breakfast was offered and good, but a dinner option would have been nice since it was a work trip and I needed to attend to some business in the evening Finally, it would be best if the faux door fronts in the bathroom didn’t have handles on them They looked like doors which I attempted to open The decorative panel came down when I pulled on it and struck by bare toe It was painful and then mildly sore for a few days, but was an unnecessary injury Overall, the stay was good and comfortable

Chose this Marriott property due to proximity for a business trip It was apparent from check-in that management doesn’t care about the property or customer experience Lobby items like grab & go areas were empty, only one elevator worked, mini fridge wouldn’t lower below room temp, shower items like shampoo and conditioner were not only empty but the canisters were removed entirely, and the linens and towels weren’t cleaned between guests

I found multiple types of hairs in towels and sheets Tried to make it work as I’d had a long day and an early morning Asked twice for a clean set of sheets to be sent to my room Both times sheets were too small I decided not to stay and went next door to Hampton Inn Front desk told me to call the manager tomorrow regarding billing Spoke to GM Fernando, who told me the room was 100% non-refundable even though I checked in 4 hours ago and was not staying the night Period I’ve never been so disappointed in Marriott, and will be removing this property from our corporate group booking option

This hotel is the worst We stayed here for a few weeks due to our house not being ready to move in No safe in the room

We never allowed any one in just the cleaning crew a couple of times to change bed sheets and clean up Someone stole my husbands chain We alerted the staff and asked to have corporate call us We have yet to have anyone call We filed a police report but of course they don’t care because as to them it’s nothing We paid thousands of dollars and also paid this hotel a lot of money to stay there and make sure our belongings were safe Multiple times we had to go to the front desk because our keys weren’t working and now it makes us think if this was on purpose to get into our room My husband has had this chain for years and never lost it Also a coincidence that we went out on a Friday and that weekend and before we checked out the chain was gone! We have contacted an attorney and hopefully this is resolved ASAP!

1st off They saved us from having a horrible trip We decided to book at seaside apartment right there on Collins

Worst choice ever They had a horrible smell, they double booked rooms sowe went from a double bed to 1 bed So we called sonesta and they got us in that same morning Not only were they accommodating, they were so nice and let us check in early at 11 am We hadn’t slept at the other hotel (seaside) because of how horrible the mold smell was Sonesta smelled so fresh and so clean What a huge difference I’m so thankful and will try to use them on other trips in the future Went from a really bad hotel experience (seaside apartment hotel) to a great and everlasting experience (sonesta)

Wow! What a beautiful hotel It was very nice and clean Very modern and contemporary feel

The pool is amazing in the back The staff is so pleasant and will help you at all hours of the night The airport is minutes away, close to all gas stations and all amenities A special thank you to Juan the GM Excellent experience and my family and I will be back for sure!

The stay was good for the most part We were out most of the day so we basically just came back to the hotel to change or sleep The pool didn’t seem as clean as I would’ve expected and some of my friends felt that it was salty? We were missing a hair dryer, but that probably could’ve been fixed by going up front to ask for one

Free breakfast was nice The hotel is very close to the airport so that made our early flight out a lot easier With traffic, the beach/downtown areas were about 40 mins Oh and parking is $2000 PER night so definitely keep that in mind! Overall this hotel was good, and i would consider to stay here again

We’d stayed at an Element in Utah, and the experience there had me very excited to try the Element in Miami I can only conclude from other reviews that this hotel exists in two dimensions Unfortunately, we ended up in the darkest timeline

“OK“ is a generous review for the alternate dimension in which we ended up It was late at night when we arrived Even later than it should have been with the very late shuttle – it’s apparent now the other dimension gets the on-time shuttle The room layout was great, the bed semi-comfortable, and a local overpriced, under-whelming pizza joint delivered At 11 pm, that was important It was also the best part of our stay The first room we were given was dirty Towels stuffed into the rack behind the door, dirty counters, hair, and dust all over the floor dirty The hotel moved us ThankfullyThe second room was cleaner than the first but not much cleaner In the darkest timeline, the hotel looks old inside and out, and the staff is tired So very tired The pandemic has hit double hard in this alternate dimension I was scared we’d hit this dimension on our return stay, so I quickly changed my reservation to the Residence Inn, where we had a great stay To those considering a stay at this Element, may be odds be ever in your favor

Good:Off the Turnpike exitClean roomsStandard room is spacious

Quiet hotelBad:Not too many bad things, so I’ll say needs improvementBreakfast was kinda limited as far as continental breakfast goesOnly dark roast coffee?!? YuckNo hot chocolate Not even the single packetsDefinitely a work location (not near any attractions)Its lakeside, nice looking outsideDid not visit weight room or pool but they have both

The room looked nice However, there were dozens of small black bugs by the sink and coffee machine We asked to move to another room

The second room on another floor had the same issue The third room we got moved to still had the bugs but less of them They were also at the front desk I’m dissatisfied with this location due to the bugs and now I don’t feel comfortable eating the breakfast there since there are bugs on that floor too Not a good experience

Jennifer AMADOR

The hotel is a very nice place, the rooms are huge This is a pet friendly hotel they need to tell guests they are staying in a pet friendly floor or room

I had to ask if there were animals in the room as I am allergic to pet hair and dander I was wheezing and coughing the whole visit, I literally went through a whole inhaler I just feel they should notify guests or ask if they are ok staying in a room that has had animals stay
