The one downside to this property is the parking. They don’t have any parking which we knew but parking in the public lot was not fun. You have to update the time every three hours until midnight=setting an alarm in the middle of the night.

My stay way only an overnight flight, the hotel was nice outside pool was lovely. Also the front desk lady was nice, they even have a room you can put your belongings into check in. Subway, and market right around the corner. Walking distance 2min.. 10 min away from ocean drive in Uber. However the inside of the hotel is old, my room bedding was dirty, you can tell house keepers don’t do a good job. Other than that nice place to stay.
