Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Value rating is modest — At a starting price of £609 per night, some guests may find the cost high for the experience. The Value category scores 7.1, the lowest among the rating categories.
  • Potential for noise on Ocean Drive — Being on a lively thoroughfare like Ocean Drive can mean street noise, especially in rooms facing the road. Several reviews mention 'location' without noise specifics, but the bustling setting is inherent.
  • Limited parking options — Parking is available, but valet parking is the only option listed. This can add to the cost and may require planning.
