One week in South Beach
Review Submitted: August 4, 2009

A group of friends and I stayed in this apartment during a recent trip to Miami. The building is gorgeous and has excellent security. The decoration in the apartment is not so great but liveable. It could use a few full length mirrors (since it has none) and I would recommend bringing your own towels. The location is great, you are in a walkable distance from most of the famous South Beach restaurants and clubs, yet far enough to experience tranquility. The beach is also in walking distance (about a 15 minute walk). Lincoln Mall, on Lincoln Rd, is about a 5 minute walk away. There is a Whole Foods in walkable distance and a Publix a short bus ride away (the bus is only 25 cents!!!). There is also a CVS and a 711 very close by as well as a ton of fast food restaurants (McDonalds, Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks, Papa Johns, Pizza Hut, Dominoes, Subways). The apartment was clean, although the beds were not all that comfortable. The kitchen has a blender, a toaster, a dishwasher, a washing machine and eating utensils (plates, cups, forks, knives, spoons, etc.). However, the pots and pans are scarce and in bad condition. There are always cabs lined up outside of the building and your average cab ride to Ocean Drive (where the action is) is about 6 dollars. However, if you would like to travel outside of South Beach while in Miami, I would recommend renting a car.
