    great dining

    excellent access to beach and great dining options nearby

    My stay was great since it's just a few steps from the beach and surrounded by amazing eateries like Tropical Beach Cafe and Shepherd Artisan Coffee, making my city strolls more enjoyable with easy access to scenic views and delicious food. the shared dorms had comfortable beds with small curtains for privacy, which added to my solo travel experience.

    service issues

    The location was excellent, making it easy to explore the area. The room was clean and spacious, which was a highlight. However, the staff could be more helpful and accommodating, as I faced some issues during check-in and didn’t receive enough information about the hotel's amenities. This place is suitable for short stays but may need some improvements in service.

    lively courtyard
    good vibes
    clean rooms
    slow check-in

    Had an amazing time with my group of friends! The courtyard was perfect for chilling, and the pool area was great, especially with the vibes from the Broken Shaker. Just a heads up—be ready for a lively atmosphere at night and a more relaxed feel during the day. Staff were helpful, and the rooms were clean and comfy.

    One minor issue was that the reception check-in took forever. We had to wait a long time, which wasn't ideal after a long trip. But everything else was good.

    tropical vibes
    clean room
    social atmosphere
    unbearable noise
    spotty wi-fi

    The location felt incredible. Just a short walk to the beach, which made my days so easy and enjoyable. The freehand vibe definitely gave off relaxing, tropical vibes that I loved. The pool area was a lush escape, perfect for lounging. The staff greeted me warmly upon arrival and were really helpful throughout my stay, especially recommending local spots. However, there were some issues. The noise from the adjacent club was unbearable at night. I struggled to get a good night's sleep. The bathroom had persistent plumbing issues that were pretty annoying. I liked how spacious and clean the room was, but occasionally, the Wi-Fi was spotty. It didn't quite match the laid-back atmosphere I expected.

    courtyard pool
    lively bar
    teen-friendly atmosphere
    noisy environment

    We really enjoyed the lush courtyard, especially the pool area where we hung out during the day. The vibe was laid-back, and the Broken Shaker offered great drinks that our teenagers loved. The garden area is perfect for relaxing in the evening.

    My kids wished there were better soundproofing, as the noise from the bar made it tough to sleep, especially with them in tow. They would appreciate a quieter environment.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the welcoming decor and spacious areas at Freehand Miami. The outdoor pool and cozy seating encouraged relaxation, making it an ideal spot for senior travelers like myself to indulge in leisurely afternoons.

    lack of water refill

    The staff here are really friendly, and the outdoor areas are nice for relaxing. However, the humidity in the room was quite uncomfortable, making my clothes smell damp. Also, a water fountain or refill station would be a fantastic addition, as buying water can get pricey.

    disorganized check-in
    dirty bedding
    frustrating bathroom

    The cleanrooms were a major plus, and lounging by the pool provided a lovely escape. The location was ideal, only a short walk to the beach and various bike rental stations nearby. However, the experience was marred by the disorganization during check-in, with dirty beds that took hours to clean and a frustrating bathroom situation that was never addressed despite multiple complaints. The atmosphere was lacking, especially when trying to enjoy the courtyard.

    good location

    This place was a decent fit for a weekend adventure in Miami at a good price. The check-in was a hassle, but we finally got settled in after showing our reservation confirmation. Lockers don't seem very reliable, so keep an eye on your stuff.
