Great hostel with a good location in South Beach. Chill environment to hang around the hostel but also a few minutes from some of the main buses and the beach. Also a great area to walk around at night when it’s more quiet.

My partner and I absolutely loved staying here! All of the staff was incredibly helpful and kind and the process of checking in/checking out was incredibly easy. They have free bikes to ride on site and we thought that was such an amazing addition to our stay. We loved riding the bikes on the Miami Beach boardwalk. The pool and outside dining area is such a fun vibe and Ray’s bar was relatively inexpensive for really good drinks and food. The room was nice, smelled great, had amazing air-conditioning, and was cleaned very nicely every day by the staff. We absolutely recommend staying here!

It was a great experience. Amazing garden to relax or to work at. Excellent location. The only set back was that the towels (both regular and beach towels) were not always available. And another reason I put 3 stars for the facilities and condition - no cover sheet on the bed. The one that is there actually more of a bed runner and not comfortable for covering at night.

The rooms need cleaning very poor cleaning. Bunk beds had tissues, red juice stains, on the table same red juice or something sticky on it. It looks like the room was never cleaned before we arrived. Other than that the hotel was great. Maybe allow food in the common area since it so expensive to eat out always
