I like convenience if being close to the beach and the wonderful staff. The view of the room was great however it smelled of mildew and appeared outdated. Otherwise my stay was okay for the price.

Great Location, Mixed Experience

Stay: July 7–9, 2025 | Family of 6, 2 Rooms (1st and 2nd Floor) Our family of six stayed at the Essex House Hotel in Miami for two nights, and while the location and staff were highlights, several issues impacted our experience. Pros: The staff was friendly and accommodating, making early check-in possible (though one room incurred a $50 fee). The hotel’s location in South Beach is fantastic—just a two-minute walk to the beach, restaurants, and the Art Deco Museum, making it ideal for exploring. The rooms were clean, with comfortable beds and minimal but functional furniture. Free Wi-Fi, bottled water, and other resort amenities were nice, though a daily resort fee applied. Cons: Despite the prime location, the neighborhood was extremely noisy until 1 a.m., even on weekdays, forcing us to run the loud air conditioning to drown it out. While the bedrooms felt recently renovated, the hallways were neglected, with worn carpets and visible stains. The AC units in both rooms were annoyingly loud, disrupting sleep. Most concerning, the bathrooms had no ventilation, and the water was a major issue—only one faucet worked, and it delivered only scalding hot water. Overall: The Essex House Hotel has a great location and friendly service, but the noisy surroundings, outdated hallways, and serious bathroom issues were disappointing. It’s a decent option for those prioritizing location, but families seeking reliable amenities may want to consider alternatives

Very Disappointing Stay – Not Worth the Price! I had a terrible experience at Essex House by Clevelander. First of all, their behavior was extremely rude when I asked for a water bottle at night – the staff seemed annoyed and unhelpful. The bathroom was very dirty, and shockingly small – barely enough space to move around. The lobby and carpets throughout the hotel were unclean and smelled bad, which immediately gave a poor impression. As for breakfast, it was a joke – they only offered one coffee and one croissant, with no other options at all. Very disappointing for a place that advertises itself as a good hotel. Overall, it was not a pleasant stay, and I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Definitely not worth the money.

Be very careful with staff and management. We arrived at hotel around 1230pm. Check was at 4pm. We asked if our room was ready could we check in earlier. Staff said yes, it's $50 to check in early and you could pay room with cc but we need the $50 in cash. We paid the $50 in cash and he checked us in. He took us to a room that we did not book on line. We booked a garden suite. They tried to give us a regular room claiming it's their suites. I declined that room and asked for a refund and my $50 back. Once I told him that not the room we booked, he didn't believe me. He asked if I could show him proof because expedia be advertising false pictures. I pulled up my booking then showed him. He told the manager she did so book garden suite. Manager walked us to another room and asked was this the room you booked. I said yes!! Manager stated well the room is not ready now (to my eyes the room looked like it had been cleaned already). He said I will call you when it's ready. When we finally checked in I notice the door did not close all the wa, the bathroom doors did not close for privacy. We had to prop our suitcases behind the door to keep it closed. There was no ice machine on property and there was a roach crawling in bed. We traveled 5 hours to celebrate our anniversary and was not happy with the staff trying to get extra money for themselves and not feeling safe in room and area.

What I like about the Clevelander was it had a awesome night life at the Hotel. The beds were very comfortable. The Staff seem like they were trying to be accommodating. The location was walkable, and convenient. We did have a nice time, and if the things we did not like are corrected, it will be a awesome hotel! We like liked the price as well. We even thought, if those things were corrected, we would not mine paying a little more for the rooms because the Hotel is great! Now these were the issues we had: 1. Broken toilet ( it was very hard to flush and the toilet seat was a little off. 2). We still have not received our Deposit 3. Room was not cleaned the 2nd night (bed was not made, we still had the same dirty towels in the room, the 1 of the shower knobs broke off (we reported it). Our coffee machine was broke (it was replaced). 4. I reserved 2 Queen bed and got 2 twin beds. Bed size can be higher so I paid for 2 Queen bed. Again, if these issues are fixed this would be a awesome Hotel but I had to give average Stars because of it.
