Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 03 Jun 2011 rated 6 out of 10.

We were only there for one night, but the room was extremely small and cramped.

Positives: Beautiful lobby.

Negatives: We got the worst room in the hotel.

Excellent

Positives: Service was excellent and the view was spectacular.

Negatives: It would have been nice to have a balcony, but that room would have been too pricey.

It was difficult to find the hotel and enter the hotel due to construction on the hotel. We attempted to check-in and were told we were not allowed to check-in unless we paid an upgrade fee. We paid the additional fee because we were unfamiliar with the area. Upon check-out, they attempted to charge for the use of the mini bar without checking to see if we used anything. We refused the charge. Additionally, the swimming pool was closed in the summertime. Find another place to stay other than the Sonesta Hotel in Coconut Grove, Florida, unless you like a rude staff and not being provided what you paid for.

Positives: Room was clean.

Negatives: Terrible staff, required us to upgrade or find another hotel.

Good location. Nice pool area and view of the Bay. I would not consider this property a 4 star hotel though, more like 3 1/2 stars. Ended up having to pay extra for a larger room with small kitchenette.Would stay here again for the right price.

Positives: The view from the pool.

Negatives: The food in the hotel restaurant was overpriced for the quality.

This hotel is amazing. This is mainly because of the incredible view at the pool. Also, the location is perfect. There is also a nice gym in the hotel. Make sure to workout and enjoy the view.

Positives: View at pool and location.

Negatives: Parking fees.

Great place to enjoy Coconut Grove. Very close to major attractions, but at the cost of tranquility. If you're looking for silence at 11pm, recommend you go to Boca Raton. If you're looking for a festive vibe, good price and very clean room, this is a winner!

Positives: Great location and very comfortable.

Negatives: WiFi did not work.

Nice hotel but rooms are too small, shower/bathroom was not that of a 4-star hotel and the location was absolutely terrible - there were thugs all on the streets. There is no self parking just valet at the hotel, so bank on an extra $23/day. Do not stay here, plus there us nothing safe to do in Miami.

Positives: Bed was

Negatives: Awful location, tiny rooms.

Negatives: Expensive business computing center and parking.

It had a beautiful pool, and was within walking distance to food/shopping. However, It was very loud and hard to get to sleep in the room. It faced a gym where there was a protest and several bars that played loud music until at least 4 am.

Positives: It had a beautiful pool, and was within walking distance to food/shopping.

Negatives: It was very loud and hard to get to sleep.

Getting to the hotel, late at night was a little scary. Had to go through a rough neighbor hood. The room was very nice, clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. Excellent steak. But late at night there was fighting or wrestling going on in a room on my floor. Loud screaming, furniture or people banging on the walls.

Positives: Good staff clean, nice area.

Negatives: To get to hotel had to travel through a rough area.

Property met all expectations. Outstanding location with regard to views and entertainment. Top notch pool and exercise areas. Great staff, and rooms were superb.

Positives: Pool.

Negatives: Misleading parking arrangement. Valet told us cost was included in room. Front desk clerk shrugged when we told her that, because valet is contract.

Nice hotel, near a nice shopping/dining area. A little out of the way and hard to find from main highway. Parking at $23 a day was an added expense not counted on.

Positives: Very clean and secure.

Negatives: Parking fee $23 a day.

The hotel was nice overall. Clean and staff was friendly. The walls seem very thin as you could hear a lot of noises from everywhere. The restaurant advertises Peruvian food. I am peruvian/american and the food was not good at all.

Positives: Friendly staff. Nice room

Negatives: The food at restaurant on the 8th floor

The suite was very nice, spacious, and clean. The staff was professional and friendly. However, I believe the attendant working at the self-park garage where we parked (next door) ripped us off, as we had to pay both at the time we parked our car upon arrival at the hotel and at the time we departed the hotel. Also, there was major noise in the neighborhood until 2 or 3 am, as bar patrons spilled out onto the street and several motorcycles were being revved up repeatedly for almost an hour. We were on one of the upper-level floors of the hotel and had a very hard time falling asleep at 2 am because of all of the street-level noise.

Positives: Incredible balcony off the living room/bedroom offered amazing views of both the city and the ocean.

Negatives: Within two blocks of the hotel, there appeared to be a very unsafe neighborhood which we had to drive through to get to the hotel.
