We stayed here the night before a cruise. For that purpose the hotel worked just fine. There is a Walmart a few miles away to buy cruise stuff. There is a good restaurant (Latin Cafe) a few miles away. It is 15 minutes from the Port of Miami and there's no traffic on a Saturday morning. The hotel itself is pretty cramped but the ship will be worse so get used to it. Small weight room - but it works. Cramped dining area - but it works and there is hot food not just cold cereal and muffins. Parking is easy enough. The staff are pleasant enough. Overall, it wasn't special but it also wasn't bad - it was just there - you won't remember this place 10 minutes after you leave.
