The location is great, as well as the service. The hotel needs some updates. The beach is clean and nice. Not bad for the price.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Hotel not near restaurants from walking distance. No air conditioning in elevators and especially the lower basement laundry room (no windows or close to an exit) service elevator is the only access and it was snail crawling slow. Rooms were very clean, beds were comfortable and view of ocean beautiful.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.

"Howard Johnson Plaza Dezerland--Miami Beach"
The phone was not working when you called the front desk. The rooms & hallway smelled like mold. The front desk service was extremely slow. The parking lot was very crowded, there were many cars parked outside the plot. Had to be extremely careful when you drove through the parking lot. Nice location, good price.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Horrible!!!"
Bathroom full of hair , pool very dirty , full of hair and bugs ... Looks like good but it is not... Never more !!!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"No service from the operator"
If you are in need of any help in this hotel, fat chance. The operator just keeps you on hold for a long time and when you call back, I believe she notices your number and puts you back on hold without answering. Perhaps the hotel need to pay them more. It was clean, however, The rooms could be upgraded just a little more for the money that you are […] paying. Stay away from the Junior suite. It is not worth the money. You are better off with a regualar hotel room facing the ocean becuase it really isn't that muchh more space and it has almost the same equipment--my friend stayed in one. It is not a bad hotel, it is just that if you are looking for a classy, beach experience, this is just not it. Spend $20-30 more and just get a completly upgraded hotel altogether. You has as matter well stay in the Days Inn or one of the independent hotels in the area which are more reasonably priced and the same outdated infrastructure as this hotel. On a scale of 1-5. This is a 2. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

It 's a good place to rest for few days w/family, a very quiet place, the room should have a litle more comfort mainly the matress and pillows, the floor of the pool need little repair& if you reinstal the mini golf that used to be next to pool years ago, would be another amenity for guest.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Hotel stay was good"
I booked the ocean front room, and the beach view was gorgeous. The free continental breakfast was enough to get your day started. The beach was good too, but its not clean, there were lot of seaweeds floating in and around the water. You get the beach chairs to relax on the beach. Overall nice experience.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Riot in a room, call security."
Upon check in, front desk fine. Easy check in. As we got out of the elevator to go to our room, we can hear arguing inside one of the room, which was 2 doors down from ours. When we got into our room, we could still hear the arguing, it got louder and louder, it sounded like there was riot going on in that room. We spent no more than 5 min. in the room, […] when my husband suggested we change room immediately. We told the front desk our situation, they sent security up. However, the front desk was helpful and understanding and changed our room, to an upgraded room. When we checked in, it wasn't as nice as the first one. But we were tired and decidedbt to change again. A few min. later the room next to us, had an unruly child, crying screaming, parents yelling at the child. We figured it's Friday night, but hopefully it would not cont. it did for most of the evening, but stopped around 12 pm. My husband put ear plugs to drown out the screaming child. Also noted, there were no elevators or ramps to carry your luggage to the lobby. Only stairs or the bell boy could be called to do it. Not good if you have heavy suitcase! So all in all, would not stay there again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Howard Johnson Plaza Dezerland - Miami Beach"
The hotel is very beautiful and everybody was nice. The was just two problems: The room was not set yet by the time we arrived there, we need to wait for about 30 minutes. And the second and worse problem: NEVER SCHEDULE A SHUTTLE WITH HIS HOTEL! They just do not appear to pick you up and do not let you know before.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Bad Experience"
As soon I wallked in to the Hotel it looked Ok and then I got to the room . It wasn't so great as the pictures but ok. Then I took my 2 years old son for a bath and then I noticed the water became so hot by itself that almost burn him if I didn't have my hand on him at the time and then it wasn't ok anymore. I made a complain and they change my room […] to another with 2 single beds.I asked for the king one that what I paid for and of course I had my husband with me. They said there was no room available and I had to keep that one.No air conditioner at the restaurant (terrible food by the way) plus you have to pay pay for parking.The pool was the only thing good about this place,but at my 2 last days it was so dirty that I couldn't even use it.So my experience was terrible. I hope they can improve all these facts and then became to be a good hotel. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Good price but very very noisy old hotel"
All I can say, the price was almost right. But then again may be too much. It is extremely noisy. No carpets in rooms or hall ways. So just imagine people dragging their suitecases or cleaners opushing their carts on tiles... Feels like trying to sleep in train NY Grand Station near the tracks.... Plus the walls must be raisor thin. As you could hear […] all your neughbours breath. Not to mention all their conversations almost in HD quality....What can I say.. next time we know better.....

"disappointment"
My family and I stayed in a junior suite at this hotel for a week. We could hardly wait to get home aside from the beach. The location was ideal, the beach was great but thats it. The restaurant service was poor and the food was not bery good at all. House keeping was poor in service and the room felt unsanitary as a result. The rooms are old and need […] to be updated and properly marketing on the websites. This hotel looks like it has not had a single update since the mid 80's. I will say that the front office staff and manager were great people, but woudl better suit a newer hotel, with a much better restaurant. We would never stay at this property again.

"Nära stranden"
Vi var sju personer som vid en transfer fått 24 tummar i Miami. Hittade detta mycket prisvärda hotell vid stra nöden på Miami Beach. Trevlig personal och rent, men enkelt boende. Den i hotellet liggande restaurangen tog dock inte kort, men istället hade man en egen ATM i receptionen.Genuine 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
