see all hotels in Miami Beach"bad experience-stinky room and spoiled food"
Bad experience. Outdated and needs major improvement as to facility maintenance and services. The room stinks! Has to change because of unbearable smell. Ordered food in the bar and when the food came, we smelled the rice is spoiled and the amount of food is way expensive with the quality of food. The waitress urged us to reorder forsomething else with […] frustrated facial reaction. To our dissappointment we left. Although the guy that took care of us in the front desk is nice and accepted our complain to be forwarded to management. Overall the hotel needs major overhauling and come down to price as what they asking. I would not recommend this hotel at all. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Never seen more misleading pictures- STAY AWAY"
The pictures are blatant lies or at least exaggerations and the service was horrendous. They wouldn't do dry cleaning for us and every time we spoke with an employee they were just trying to get you away from them as quickly as possible (if they even spoke English). The beach nearby is terrible and the location was way out of the way of anything cool. […] The ONLY positive was that the HoJo has now become big joke sarcastically saying "Well this place is nice but it is no Howard Johnson". I absolutely urge you to stay away from this place.

"Literally the worst thing I've ever witnessed"
Service sucked, the hotel that is displayed in the pictures is not the hotel that actually exists. The only good thing about this hotel is the beach. Besides that it is absolutely worthless and should be demolished.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Completely different from photos of the hotel. The hotel is very old and needs fundamental renovation... Besides, our room was not properly cleaned! I will never go back to this hotel!!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Not reccomanded"
I'm not sure where to start. I feel that the pictures on the website were a very inaccurate description of what we found. The hotel was very dirty starting with the lobby. There was a damp smell throughout the hotel. When we got to our door, my husband had to force the door three times in order for it to open. The room was very dirty and the "remodeling" […] people forgot a bucket of paint on our table. The bath room door was not closing or staying shut. The sink had paint all over it. We got to the hotel at mid-night and left at 8. I feel that that was a few hours too long. I feel it is pretty bad when you leave a hotel and you feel like you want to take a shower.

"Service? Anyone there?"
From the moment I waled in to check in....I had to wait over 30 minutes...The girl at front desk told me to have a seat while she talked on the phone.....Then another couple walked in and she forgot that I was there and checked them in ahead of me. Oce I was finally able to get some service, the room wasn't ready and had to wait another 30 minutes, […] even though it was already an hour past the advertised check in time. Pool was closed and I was never informed. Overall, I wouldn't pay motel prices for a stay at this hotel! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"The Worst!!!!"
This was by far the worst experience I've had at a hotel. The elevators in the front did not work and our room was on the 7th floor. As a result the entire building as well as the workers and their cleaning carts all had to use one elevator located in the back. We usually had to wait around 10 minutes. The staff was not very friendly and the manager […] was not in and could not take complains. There was no internet in the room,key cards didn't work. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not Handicap Accessible at all"
It was not a good experience. The hotel staff was rude, maid service was lacking and the accommodations were not accessible for my husband in his wheel chair.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
1) I was charged for Parking but there was no room for parking. Many cars were parked in drive way. 2) The receptionist made fun and comment on a guest after the guest left the desk with her associate 3) In Laundry room's temperature was too hot to stand there and do your laundry. 4) We had to pay cash only as the cafeteria was not accepting any credit […] card. The lady was suggesting that if you don't have enough cash you withdraw from ATM. 5) one cleaning lady entered knock the door and with in few seconds she opened the door before we reach to the door.

"what a shame!!!"
A great location, close to Bal Harbour Shopping, but unfriendly staff , and rooms that belong in a century old hotel. I paid for a Junior suite ocean view, was given an old room with side ocean view and the front desk employee kept insisting that that was a Suite, asked to see a regular room to compare , he refused.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Location- Horrible hotel"
The hotel was old and falling apart, the rooms smelled like a combination of mold and bleach, the staff was rude and had no customer service. Even the continental breakfast was terrible. Never would recommend the hotel. Tried to check out early and could not get my money back. Only advantage is its location on Miami BeachGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"We had the worst experience ever.. the employees were very unprofesional and rude."
When we got to the hotel we were so happy thinking that we were going to have a good time.. but every since Friday 10/01 since we got there everything went wrong.. to begin with the person that sign us in was giving us a really bad actitud and make us pay for the parking with cash.. he didn't give us no receipt. on the same nigh on the room we were […] siging happy b-day to our daughter and the security came to our room acting really rude telling us to shut up which i didn't appreciated the way he talked to us.. that I went downstars and complain to the manager and he was the same way.. and on the last day our license plate was stolen fron our vehicle and they told us that they didn't have camaras.. and besides they wanted to charge us for the parking again because we didn't have a receipt.. Very bad expeience and I will not recommended this place to any one and I WILL NEVER GO BACK... Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"The Wifi Howard johnson Hotel MIAMI BEACH"
They have ONLY internet (n Lobby! Don't think that in your room will have wifi or something like this. the Breakfast is expensive and EVERY little thing that you gonna do you will PAY for. like fitness room, spa, CHAIR on the beach, etc.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"What a surprise"
I recently stayed at the Howard Johnson Plaza Dezerland Beach and Spa. The hotel itself was a great disappointment. My room was a walk into 1960...nothing has been updated or enhanced. I could have stayed at a Motel 6 and gotten more modern aesthetics. I was very disappointed. There was an additional $11/night parking fee that was not discussed in the […] fine print. Overall I would have paid more money for better hotel accommodations. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Howard Johnson Dezerland - close to the beach"
This hotel was not clean. The pool was dirty and it had bugs in it. The con tinental breakfast had no fruit. The hotel lobby staff did not speak english well. The best thing about the hotel was that it was close to the beach, although you could only get 2 lounge chairs on the beach without an addtional cost and an umbrella also cost additional money. […] Definitely would not recommend this hotel. The hotel room was not clean. There was limited cable on the television and at one point the telephones were not working Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Horroroso!"
Deveria ser implodido para a construção de um novo. O hotel é velho e nem reformas resolveriam o problema. Tem uma decoração "retro" anos 60 talvez para dar a ideia de que a "antiguidade" fosse propositalmente decorativa. Mas, não é não! É velho mesmo. Colchões e travesseiros tão ruins que não nos deixavam dormir. Não tem nada perto que dê para fazer […] a pé (lanchonetes, restaurantes...) e o restaurante do hotel também é horroroso. O único ponto positivo era o sorriso da recepcionista, sempre alegre e disponível. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Bien ubicado, mal atendido"
A este hotel habia ido un par de veces antes. Nunca fue un gran hotel, pero el servivio y la limpieza tenian buen equilibrio precio/calidad. Pero esta ultima vez fue pesimo, el desayuno malisimo, me cambiaron de habitación por una supuestamente mejor y no era asi. Queria pedir comida a las 8 de la noche y no atendian el telefono, baje al restaurant […] y no habia nadie. Preguntabas a la gente de la entrada y no tenian idea. Cuando llegue habia una pasajera haciendo una denuncia policial contra el hotel por algun tipo de robo que habia sufrido en su habitación. La habitación tenia paredes con la pintura saltada, los enchufes de corriente se salian de la pared, el baño tenia oxido en la ducha. Mande un mail estando hospedado y nunca me contestaron. La verdad una experiencia muy mala en esta ocación. No volveré y no lo recomiendo. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
