Just not impressed by anything here. The whole layout of the hotel and the room; the furniture and "feel" of the place is just not my style. I think it's supposed to be "modern"?, but I feel like I'm in an Ikea display room. 7 vases in the "condo", and no flowers (real or fake). Maybe the color scheme is what has me feeling so uncomfortable; no blue, green, or purple, just beige, black, and some minor "ketchup and mustard" accents.
I wanted to go to the pool, but the signs all over the lobby about how you have to be fully-dressed in the lobby at all times, made me change my mind. Also the security to get to the elevators adds to the cold, unwelcoming feel for me. Thankfully I'm not paying for the room, so I'll just tolerate it.

The hotel is beautiful and the view amazing. I was on the 33 Rd floor and just the entrance alone of the hotel was great. But there was have security guard in the front. Almost as if we were entering a South Beach club. It was so disorganized and made the first feel uneasy. Just weird overall. Anyways the hotel is beautiful definitely but the entrance is just strange.

The views spectacular but you do not get what you pay for!! I paid $400 for two nights prior to a cruise and I had to switch rooms due to a smoky smell in my room.. they accommodated me very quickly but the price for what you get is not worth it..
Staff is rude. Stay elsewhere... But as you can see below, the views are amazing.

Hotel was nicely set up and rather large. Valet needs to be more organized. Requested early check in and when we arrived we were put on a rush list for housekeeping so we can check in early. An hour before regular check in we saw a long line and people being checked in. We inquired again and we were told we would have to continue waiting. A manager came out to speak to us and upgraded us and checked us in immediately. That was great. Room was big, clean and had a fantastic view of the bay. Check out was hectic. When we would call for valet to get the car ready or front desk to send a bell boy we would be left on hold for long periods of time and then hung up on.

Beautiful hotel close to the cruise port. Most hotels in that area are a little more expensive but worth the effort. Bear in mind when choosing one that some charge for keeping your car while you cruise. Ask first. Doubltree kept our car saw and out of the weather until we returned. Some provide transportation to the port but not back to get your car. Only had to pay $15.00 to get back.
Great rooms with a decent view of Miami and the bay. Friendly and helpful staff added to a great one night stay. They give you fresh baked cookies and a bottle of water for each occupant on check-in too.
