Perfectly matches pictures. Very clean and comfortable. Good area for good and easy food. Not in a busy area, it’s cutely tucked away. Only downside was the TV was very small and slow, but if you’re not planning on watching TV much, it’s a great spot!

Unique, clean, and quiet. Large living space with a full kitchen. Within walking distance of cool, bohemian restaurants and shops. It’s an older Florida property - well maintained, but real deal old Miami, (blocks away from an ancient Tequesta burial mound), so like a little rust here and there but nothing dirty or sticky. Nothing like a high end hotel, but I would definitely stay there again.
