The desk clerk when we checked in (Sebastian) was terrific! He was personable, very helpful and delightful! There is a lot of construction going on and we called the hotel because our GPS was having no luck finding the hotel. We called and Sebastian gave us easy directions (coming in on 41st, go right on Collins and right on 39th and the hotel is right there). The hotel is on a channel so we had a lovely water view. The decor is a bit funky but OK. Continental breakfast is included (muffins, croissants, bagels, cereal, coffee). The entire hotel is immaculate and it is a very easy 2 block walk to the beach. We enjoyed a lunch at the Bungalow by the Sea in the Cadillac Hotel and a perfect Italian meal at Cafe Avanti (this is a .5 mile walk but easy and so worth it!). We had a few things in our room that weren’t quite right, like a bathroom door that wouldn’t completely close, but all in all we were pleased with the hotel and its location.
