Casa Ocean

Fun

The location is excellent, very close to the fun of South Beach but not so close to be noisy. However, the amenities were lower than that of a Motel 6. There is no on site parking. When I called to enquire about the average cost of public parking, they were evasive. It turned out to be $80 per night, which is a significant hidden expense. Everything was clean, but the lobby is very spartan, and the coffee machine there actually requires a credit card to use. I'm always annoyed when there is only one chair in the room, so if you and your partner brings home takeout you have to take turns sitting down, or else eat on the bed. This is the kind of place you use only to crash for the night, and not for an extended stay.

At the quieter end of Ocean Drive, 2mins to the beach, parking is difficult, I’d recommend the parking on 7th st. $20 for 24hrs. Rooms are small, fine for sleeping in and the bed was comfy, it was good value for money.

Nice room, everything worked. Not fancy but got the job done!

Very clean. Great location! Minutes walk to many dining options and Miami Beach.

One of the worst experiences i had at a South Beach hotel I have ever stayed at...here is why: 1) They advertised the room as 330 square feet. The room was barely half of that size, even including the bathroom. No closet, no place to put any clothes, you literally have to live out of your suitcase. 2) There was an odor of mold that was extremely strong and the hotel was trying to mask it with some other perfumed fragrance air freshener which made it worse. 3) On Saturday a guest on our floor decided to play music, I am guessing from their own speaker, at the highest level possible. Thia went on for 45 minutes and since there is no front desk coverage overnight, I wound up calling the police. 4) They clean the rooms every two days. Challenging to get any fresh towels, had to ask for soap, twice. Bring your own. 5) One front desk employee extremely rude when my wife was requesting more soap. One of the worst hospitality moments I have experienced. 6) It is close to the beach, about a 5 minute walk and they do provide two beach chairs. 7) It is walking distance to a lot of the restaurants South of 5th Street. Overall a horrible experience. Don't waste your money.
