There was a strong odor. At first I thought it was chlorine but they have no pool. I realized it was likely mildew. It was clean but aged. Very simple ambiance. Expensive restaurant with very subpar food. Price was reasonable so slightly disappointed but for the price, I don't expect the Ritz.

My stay was good. The building is kind of run down. The floor is slanted causing the beds to be slanted. Head slanted down and feet slanted up. I have them a 4 syat because the gentleman working that morning was very nice. We were able to check in at 11am with no problems.the gentleman working 2nd shift was also nice.

Excellent location. Close to beach and steps away from several restaurants. Did not care for our queen size bed that was on a platform. Had to be careful not to stub our toes. I would stay here again as I felt we got a good value.

Pros: Very close to the beach, and walkable to everything. The Studio room we stayed in had a proper kitchen with a large fridge, stove, kettle etc. Cons: We stayed in the Studio which was a separate building and a walk-up to the third floor - for me this was fine, but this wasn't mentioned in the original booking. Additionally our room definitely had a mold infestation - we were only there for 3 nights, and barely in the room, but I definitely would have complained if it was a longer stay. You get what you pay for with this one...

The property was in the perfect location! Very walkable, very close to everything yet very quiet. A hidden gem. The restaurant had delicious food and the service was spectacular. Offered very early check in after arriving on an early flight. Very hospitable staff. The room was comfortable and just what we needed. Would gladly stay here again.

I loved the old style hotel, right out of the 50s! Loved being right across from the ocean although I couldn’t see it. I loved the ‘people watching’ along the avenue and eating right on the sidewalk. The staff was terrific - I left some clothing on checkout and they are sending it home to me! Thank you Andie.

We loved Ocean Five Hotel, the location was perfect! It's walking distance from dining and shopping and the beach is right across the street. We loved the room and the kitchen, and the price was so right!! Definitely got a lot of bang for the buck. The hotel staff, I believe spelled Josue, greeted us with kindness and tons of information. He was probably one of the nicest people we met on this trip. Josue made us feel so welcomed. Ocean Five Hotel will be our go to place when visiting Miami from now on.

The pictures are very deceiving. The floor is old cracked up marble. The faucet was dirty. We didn’t even sleep under the covers. They also fail to mention on the Expedia app that they hold $50 on your card when you check in as a security deposit
Response from Ngh on 1 Apr 2024
Sorry you were unhappy.As you may know, it is customary in all hotels to have a security deposit hold on your credit card, which is released upon check- out. Provided there are not incidental charges.Thank yoy.

this hotel maybe not very new, doesn’t have mini fridge and microwave in room. however, it’s clean and everything seem fine. we had a room behind the restaurant, we can eat at the restaurant immediately if we are hungry. parking is extra, $30 per hotel day right next to hotel. however, the staff r nice enough to let us park additional time after check out. the beach is at walkable distance, i would stay again if i am visiting miami beach again
