Floridian Hotel

The pool is frequently closed for long stretches, and amenities are basic for a motel-style property (small gym, coin-operated laundry, no elevator). Parking can feel limited at times, though security patrols are noted.

Many guests report clean rooms, but others note stained or damp carpets, strong cover-up odors, and occasional insects (including roaches). Housekeeping is generally responsive, though deep-clean and maintenance issues surface in some rooms.

Rooms range from newly refreshed to dated; bed comfort varies, noise can travel through thin walls, and some fixtures feel worn. Wi-Fi can be unreliable, AC units are sometimes loud or weak, and some rooms lack closets/phones or blackout curtains; TVs are often not smart.

Service is inconsistent: many mention friendly, helpful staff (especially at breakfast and security), while others encountered rude or unhelpful front-desk interactions and slow check-in. Follow-up on issues and deposit or ID handling also drew complaints in a few cases.

A convenient base for the Everglades, Biscayne, the Keys, and Homestead-Miami Speedway, with shopping and dining nearby or across the street. Several guests felt the surrounding area was sketchy at night, though on-site security is visible.

Breakfast is generally a strong point, with hot items on weekends and a decent continental spread on weekdays. Some travelers found selections basic or noted occasional shortages.
