The Stiles Hotel South Beach

Prós: Friendly staff, comfortable beds.

Contras: Amenities: TINY room, missing refrigerator, mold in showers. Only two complimentary beach chairs (we had three guests). Location: Hotel is a little bit of a walk from the South Beach area where the major hotels are. There was also a SHOOTING in the alley outside of the hotel (we heard the gunshots from our room and it was confirmed later on the news). Misc.: We were also NOT told about the $20 per day "resort fee" that we were made to pay upon checking out.

No rooms left after bookin 2 months ago

Prós: Nothing

Contras: Everything no rooms relocated us to 29th. Said they would pay for breakfest ubers never happend. Overall they were try hard purchased a 6 pack of beer for us and the front desk giy not his fault. Also paid for our cab not good enough for how much we spent and where we wanted to ne at. We had plans with friends with walking of the property

Prós: The proximity to the beach was fantastic as was the closeness to shopping/restaurants and Espanola Way. The decor was fun and really captured the feel of the surrounding art deco neighborhood. The staff were also very friendly, warm and welcoming to the hotel.

Contras: This was definitely not a 4 star hotel. The building and furniture were old looking and outdated and needed some serious TLC. Looks like they haven't put much work into renovations in quite some time. The sink was cracked, the tile needed a cleaning, there was hair on the bathroom floor, it just didn't feel clean and new. The bed was super creaky and the carpet stained. Definitely not what I would have expected from a hotel with this rating. Maybe 3 stars but definitely not 4 and I could have gotten something much nicer for the same price.

Beware: $20+ resort fee is mandatory

Prós: - Good location - Staff seemed nice

Contras: - $20 "resort" fee they charge on top of the reservation that you can't opt out of. Plus taxes. - Smallish rooms, but decent furniture - A/C was really, really loud

Room Lights

Contras: Not one of the lamps in my room work. If it weren't for the high-hat lights the room would have been completely dark
