Continental Downtown Bayside - Port of Miami

THE HOTEL VERY BAD

Hotel Continental has been worst than customers commented on the internet. a) When we took a taxi from the airport to Hotel Continental, the cab driver told us that this hotel should be close by government authorities because it is a very bad hotel. b) When we arrived, we saw two ugly doors with glass windows completely black. Nobody welcomed us. The receptionist did not even look at us and he registered us while he was writing something else at the same time. He never even paid us attention. When we told him we had a reserved room , he asked for our names and threw us the register card very rudely. c) Following the suggestion of the taxi driver, we asked them to let us take a look of the room first. Effectively, the elevator wood is not covered and the wood is breaking in pieces. It also sounds as if it needed lubricant. d) The room was too small and was not illuminated. The carpet had a disgusting smelling like if it has been wet for a long time. When I requested another room, they showed me other even worst; trying to cover the bad smelling, they sprayed a deodorant so disgusting that it caused allergy. e) The rooms did not have air conditioned. And the bathrooms had a so bad smelling that I did not even saw them. BAD, BAD, BAD!!!!!! When I requested for the devolution of my money because I did nod want to take any room, the receptionist told us very impolitely that I should call the company that made the reservation before 4:00 pm of that day when it was already 3:50pm, and only waiting for the operator machine it turned 4:00pm. In order to avoid any sickness, we decided to go to another hotel (Marriott) which is very comfortable, big rooms and very illuminated. It was a total change. I hope somebody close that grotto.

perfect for the price

The hotel is not perfect but nice location and good price

Needs New Owners

Owners or management not putting funds back into hotel. The hotel is old and tired. Rooms are dirty, outdated beds and bedding. If you see this hotel run!

Would only reccomend to an enemy

Room was filthy, no toilet paper, sheets were not changed during my 4 night stay, no wash cloth, few towels, front desk did not respond to one request to remedy situation other than to bring one roll of toilet paper which ended up costing me a tip.

Its Great The Way It Is

Needs improvement

The room was large which made all of the scuff marks on the walls more noticeable. There was a childs toy on the floor that the "cleaning" crew had missed. The sheete were threadbare and pilled up. The beds were uncomfrtable. The bathroom had bath towels only, no hand towels or wash clothes. There were fees to use the internet to pre board for a flight as well as fees to make local calls. The only saving grace was the couteous treatment by the bellhop and the front desk staff.

Really bad hotel

We don't recomment this hotel. Is not clean, the rooms are terrible. This hotel was the most ugly hotel in Miami.

Yikes! Look Elsewhere for Cheap Stay...

Walking into the room reminded me of a bad movie scene... one light bulb flickering on and off with the saddest looking beds I have ever seen. Cheap stay but looking back, I should have paid a little more elsewhere to feel comfortable.

Good room for the money

I read the reviews and wasn't expecting much. I was suprised by the room. It wascomfortable and near where I needed to go to. It is an older hotel, that they are fixing up. Most hotels in the area go for triple the rate. For the money it was fine

No Comment

Well, I needed a place to crash for the night & nothing else. Other then that, hotel entrance door isn't very obvious. The rooms need renovation as the walls have stains on them. The mattresses on the beds seemed as if they were used for 20 years w/o being changed. Sheets weren't ironed BUT were clean (actually, one of them had a blood stain on them). It was a place where I'd be embarrassed to bring a hooker in for 2 hrs. Overall: Hotel is what you payed for - as I said I need a place to crash for the night and that all it was.

Needs Improvement

Didn't like the room the walls & bathroom were dirty and the cleanness of the roon was very poor.

Could Have Been Better

I asked for an extra pillow.... there are none... The Hotel has a restaurant that never opened. There is no room service as advertised. Oh well... next time I'll stay elsewhere.
