Staff was friendly, attentive and professional. Didn't like the loud music being allowd so late by the pool, but slept ok with ear plugs. Had a bad roommate that used my towel after muddying his, plus locked his stuff in my locker, also leaving mud everywhere in the bathroom, sand all over the floors. I brought this to the manager and they were ready to address the guy immediately, but I asked they do so after I left the next morning, so I could sleep without retaliation from the jerk/roommate. Would stay again because of staff, but hesitant because this was my first time sharing a room. But overall, staff super people, rooms good, A/C good, also.

The room was clean and quiet, nice firm bed, 2 bathrooms in the room and you can’t not hear the outside noise from the room. There is a bar, a pool and a party area in the common areas and they are super fun. Also just to note if you get cold when you’re sleeping I would recommend to bring another blanket

I arrived at Freehand Miami after a full day of travel and checked in on time, only to be assigned a room that was already fully occupied. I returned to the front desk and was walked to a second room — which was also already full. At approximately 2:36 a.m., I was then informed that their system was down. At that point, I still did not have an actual bed despite having a confirmed reservation. Being told in the middle of the night that there was a system failure — after being sent to two occupied rooms — is not a minor inconvenience. It is a serious operational breakdown. After traveling all day, the last thing a guest should experience is uncertainty about whether they will have a safe, available place to sleep. The situation reflected poor room inventory management and a lack of contingency planning for system outages. This experience created unnecessary stress and significantly impacted the start of my stay. For a property that markets itself as hospitality-focused, this level of disorganization at check-in is unacceptable. I strongly encourage management to review their late-night check-in procedures and backup systems to ensure future guests are not placed in this position.
Laying in their lobby at 3am because I was halfway across the country and a non paying person to the hotel took my bed.
