    Cute option, if you want to stay in Little Havana and/or attend a Marlins game

    The front "desk" (there is none, just a small counter in the lobby) staff failed to mention that coffee is available in the morning on the rooftop terrace. That was a drag, as I could have avoided searching the neighborhood to find some joe. Also, the room could have used a mini-fridge. There was enough space for one. Lastly, the bathroom fan comes on when light is turned on, and it is VERY loud. Both nights I was there, the fire alarm was set off by someone who showered in the dark, not doubt to avoid the fan noise. The hotel needs to invest in new, quiet fans.

    Cute place, well-located for a visit to LoanDepot (Marlins) Park

    My room was nearest to the lobby, which would get a little loud in the morning.

    I liked that it was clean and had very good vibes all around. One of the best stays I've ever had.

    I stayed in the cozy king size for 2 nights as a solo traveller which worked out great but I think I would’ve struggled with the size of the room a little especially with another person and more luggage perhaps but this may not be an issue in other categories.

    Super stylish hotel, lovingly decorated with fantastic staff that were most helpful and welcoming! The interior is what stood out for me at the time of booking and it did not disappoint - what a fantastic little hotel and I can’t wait to visit the other ones. The location was convenient to reach downtown and the airport quickly, so overall very happy with my choice.

    Noisy A/C, mosquitoes in our room, dusty in some areas, thin walls/doors multiple times thought someone was entering our room but they were going into a different room you can hear it that clearly.

    Amazing decor, cool rooftop bar for food and drinks.

    Everything was great. The rooftop bar is open to external visitors, and gets quite noisy on weekends if you’re trying to sleep early. The breakfast was delicious but the menu was quite short so don’t expect loads of choices.

    Beautifully decorated, stylishly refurbished period property in the heart of Little Havana. Very welcoming and helpful staff and lovely touches like Le Labo products in the bathroom. Fun rooftop bar with great breakfast options in the morning.

    The only bad thing I can think of is the location. The Life House is a lovely boutique hotel but it is located in quite a rough neighbourhood. I didn't feel particularly safe at night time.

    The hotel was lovely, had great facilities and the decoration was lovely. Staff were very attentive and they have entertainment towards the end of the week which is great.

    Feels more like a hostel which is ok but not at that price. Nice young employees but overall big lack of professionalism

    Nice location to explore Little Havana by foot. Quick taxi ride to Midtown and to Wynwood. Nice rooftop that attracts a big crowd. Noisy at night but ok with earplugs.

    During our stay in March 2022 it was quite a noisy place. We had a room on the third floor, which was right below the terrace where every evening there was loud music and it was also possible to hear the furniture being moved when the bar was getting ready to be opened or closed. Also, there was a staff/maintenance room directly next to our room where there seemed to be some renovations getting done so there were often staff both talking loudly in the corridor right behind our door and also some banging when they did the work in the room. The AC in our room was also very loud. There were very cute chickens and roosters roaming the streets, but the roosters also made themselves heard from early in the morning. All in all, quite noisy, some things that the hotel can do something about, some that you can just keep in mind when booking.

    The location of the hotel is great for getting to know Little Havana and venturing towards Coconut Grove. The hotel rooftop terrace has great views of the Miami skyline and although they like to play super loud music which makes talking with each other a bit difficult, it's a nice spot to visit. We stayed in a king suite. The shower and the amenities in the room were great, the bed was big and comfy, nice and soft robes in the room. There was also a great view of the Miami skyline from our window. The hotel lobby area was very nice and the staff was always very helpful.

    it was spring break time and also in our hotel too loud! we could hear everything that happened in our neighbor room. also I lost my air pods and also after one week I did not get any feedback. nobody picked up the phone and no one answered my emails or the messages via booking

    love in every details, very close to the Main Street, nice rooftop bar and very friendly and helpful staff. we could not check in because internet did not work. they invited us to wait in the rooftop bar and invited us for a drink and something to eat.

    Only thing I could have possibly said was no fridge in the room (but we were in a smaller room) as well as no toilet brush.

    Lovely clean rooms with really nice decor. Super clean bathroom as well and really nice shower! Le Labo products smelled amazing!! Furniture in the lobby and on the roof was very chic, and the overall vibe of the place was just so great. Super friendly staff too. One of my fave boutique hotels I've stayed in :) So worth the money! And Little Havana is amazing!

    The immediate neighbourhood doesn’t have a lot going on. It’s about a 15 minute walk to the heart of Little Havana. Not a big deal though.

    Beautiful property! The design of the hotel is absolutely gorgeous, with immaculate attention to detail. Comfy beds, great music, lovely sitting areas, friendly staff, nice bath products, fab rooftop.

    - we were in 3rd floor which is below the bar. We could slightly hear the music. It didn't bother us at all as quite tired and drunk! But it might bother a light sleeper.

    - very clean hôtel - hôtel looks like one you could see in Havana in older movies, very cool. - staff was excellent, he went out of his way to try to find a parking spot for us and was about to give us his, but luckily we found one outside. - roof top bar is amazing! Great view, great drinks and great music. It gets pretty busy as people are traveling to the bar. Must do!
