Building is older, beautiful architecture. We took a quick vacation. Quick walk across the street to beautiful South Beach. Room is nice, could use upgrades but sufficient. Bed is very hard, we left a night early because my back was killing me. Helena is awesome, overall we enjoyed our stay!
Loved being so close to the beach and thereâs everything you need in walking distance. The only thing we had to uber for was to get to UMF! And it was a party outside but not as hectic as downtown so the location was just top tier!
Great place for spring break kids. Unbelievably poor condition. We have never seen anything like this. Guaranteed disappointment. Stay at your own risk!
This was a perfect place to stay for our first time visiting Miami. The location was the best, very nice area, with plenty to do and see. No driving around necessary to have lots of adventures. Owner and property manager just terrific. Very much enjoyed the trip.
The property location was good. Property and room just ok. Front door of room stuck, hard to open. Room mostly clean, older. Pictures looked much nicer than room.
Best Service! Answers to questions within minutes, very detailed and fact based information, all was exactly as offered - very little the apartment is old, yet price fits more than perfect to the overall performance. Although street can be loud on weekends- room is good and quiet. Security at lounge very kind and open as well as local manager and remote manager
There is no view in the room, but being right across from the beach made up for it. The bed and pillows were comfortable. I asked Helena for a beach chair and she let me use one. No complaints except maybe there could have been more hangers. Make sure you ask for anything you need. Helena will deliver.
Excellent experience for a quick 6 day winter getaway for sun and fun and food.
You are so lucky to have Helena as your condo representative, full of good advice and tips, we loved our stay and will be back!
The vrbo is located on the corner of a busy lighted street and the window covering doesnât darken the room at night. Also there is constant human and automobile noise every night until 3 and this wasnât even spring break season. Vrbo had very modest kitchen equipment.(not even a toaster.). 1/4 roll of toilet paper. Could at least provide one roll to use until a trip to the store could be made. Bed covers were very cheap and did little. Cleaning was average at best with lots of hair throughout the bathroom On the positive side pricing was competitive and proximity to the beach was perfect.
If youâre going to South Beach you canât beat this location. Right at 6th and Ocean. Note that if youâre coming from outside the USA youâll want to make sure you have some US cash if you get there after 8pm to pay the 20 late check-in fee.The Facilities are good. How to use the shower is labeled in the shower. The bed is comfortable and it has good pillows. Bring your own toilet paper; they must have had a problem with people stealing it in the past because thereâs no extra in the flat. The AC works very well also. To get into the building youâll have to run the gauntlet of the restaurant downstairs every time, but they give BOGO on drinks if youâre staying there so no complaints. The hallway to the unit smells like a lifetime of steamed shrimp and microwaved beef, but you can handle that.
You cant beat the location- its right by the beach and all the great clubs.
The place was spacious and clean and the bed was very comfortable!
We loved being able to make breakfast before we went out.
Helena was great! She greeted us with a smile and was there with recommendations for great places to eat. Next time I come to south beach will stay here again
GREAT location across the street from the park and the beach. Unit very clean and nicely furnished. Helena very helpful as always with any onsite requests. Early check-in and late check-out options very convenient. It was my third stay at Barbizon condo building and I will definitely consider booking there again. The rates are very reasonable and it is a relatively quiet location on the strip compared to some other, very noisy places a few blocks up north on Ocean Drive.
This is a great location in the middle of the South Beach action. As a result, it is loud and you won't get sleep without earplugs. The AC is loud as well so bring headphones for TV viewing. The rock solid WiFi works great for teleconferences. The beach, park and restaurants are right outside the building. All said, this was exactly as advertised/expected. I would stay here again.
Okay. So we would stay here again. Itâs a studio apartment so donât expect much. The bed is nice. The location is perfect. Itâs hard to find better bang for your buck. We lived on the beach and ate gelato every day. Some drawbacks. Itâs very loud outside and can be heard in the room. Relatively clean but not perfect. Had to pay an extra 20 bucks to check in late which I thought was a grift. All that said, we really enjoyed our stay more than I can say.
We stayed for 5 nights. The location was great, exactly as advertised. Right on Ocean drive where everything happens and a two minute walk to the beach. Everything was ok with the apartment. Could be a little cleaner. Downside, was a very noisy location, but as others have said, ear plugs worked! If I had to recommend something that would help the apartment, it would be a blind or darker curtains, as the outside lights shine right into the apartment at night. Itâs like trying to sleep with lights on. I am a light sleeper, and usually sleep with black out blinds, but thatâs just me. Overall this was place was good.
