I think they have the worst elevator system possible. It takes about 5 minutes to get on the elevator even though they have 4. It takes the valet drivers about an hour to get you your car. We waited 40ish minutes every time we wanted to leave in the morning or evenings. One good thing about waiting is you get a good view of the drag strip. Valet drivers spinning tires in 150hp SUVs under an awning with 30 people. Honestly impressive. Other than those things the place is pretty solid and in a good location

I was attending Art Basel week in Miami Beach this past December. I was told by a friend that there…read morewas a great Bed & Breakfast in South Beach owned by a private investor. I looked up the rental on airbnb which I was told to do at https://www.airbnb.com/r.... The location was perfect and it would be the perfect location for me and my guests to stay (12/1/13 - 12/10/13). I was asked not to book the rental through airbnb from the owner and he would provide daily housekeeping for a total of $2750. I thought this was a great rate and considering the location it should have been perfect. I had to idea what was to happen upon our arrival. Day 1 We arrived in Miami after a long flight and was informed that we could check-in at 9:00am. We started to try to reach the owner upon our arrival and after multiple phone calls and waiting for 30 minutes at the front door proceeded to take all of our luggage to the first event we were attending. We subsequently received a call mid-afternoon apologizing that he was asleep and offered to pick up our luggage for us. We were finally able to check in at about 7:00pm that night. Day 2 One of my guests returned mid-day to find the "housekeeper" having lunch in the rental with the food that we purchased and my guest was informed that this was something the owner allowed him to do. Day 3 At approximately 11:30pm there was a knock at the front door and one of my guests answered it and outlined to me that there was a young man with a book to return to the owner. I outlined to the visitor that we were renting the house and the owner was not here so the visitor left. Day 4 I was notified that the owner had his real estate agent bringing by prospective buyers of the property. One time I would understand but this happened on 3 separate occasions that disrupted me and my guests. The owner made no apologies or concessions. Day 7 One of my guests noticed some cash (approximately $100) was missing from her room but thought maybe she could have spent it during the trip. Day 8 Upon returning during the afternoon I noticed the housekeeper arriving in the afternoon. He greeted us and proceeded to enter the house. I returned later that evening and another one of my guests outlined that a $100 bill was missing from inside his luggage. This along with the other missing cash began to raise concern. This plus the fact that the house had not been cleaned when the housekeeper supposedly was arriving to clean the house was a concern that I brought up to the owner. The owner was not at all empathetic or concerned but said he woudl look into it. Upon returning to San Francisco both of my guests contacted me and outlined that there were checks missing from the middle of their check books and one of them had three checks stolen and an attempt to cash those checks for $4800 in Miami Beach was caught by the bank and reported to the Miami PD. I immediately contacted the owner and outlined all of the issues and was met with a run around of stories and his complete lack of concern with our experience with his rental. He outlined that this "story" was meant to get the housekeeper fired which was completely outrageous. I tried for over two weeks to come up with a resolution for this experience and was finally dismissed by the owner without any resolution. I have filed a trip adviser report as well as reported this property https://www.airbnb.com/r... to http://www.airbnb.com. To date there is no resolution to this issue.

Oh yeah, and your name has to be on a preapproved list to even board the ferry. But once you get there, it is a truly special place. A perfect staycation. A great break from the hustle and bustle. And even as a sobe resident, Fisher Island is such a great escape for breakfast, lunch, cocktails and/or dinner. Sitting at the beach club you get a perfect view of the city and the beach / ocean. Plus i am convinced they produce perfect weather and breeze. If it's raining in miami it's probably perfect weather on Fisher. Even better the staff is amazing. They are on a first name basis with almost everyone. Whatever you ask for they will try damn hard to get it.

Some asshole company bought them out, 'upgraded' the place, and now charges, you guessed it right, hundreds and even thousands for a so called 'luxury hostel'. As the gentrification and out of control profiteering reaches endgame levels, every last motel, hostel, BnB and trailer park these greedy motherfuckers can get their hands on is being flipped for profit, and FreeHand is no exception. So basically, if you're a solo traveler, you're FUCKED. Might as well just rent and sleep in an RV instead.

We reviewed Website pictures of NYC locations and I thought through a bad situation came a good outcome! I was WRONG! I paid in advance and upon arrival to the location in NYC, it did NOT come anywhere near the website pictures. The address of the location was not even relayed to us and we had to search for "Amsterdam Residence". Their web site URL link did not work and they claimed 24 hr availability, which was also not the truth. We could not talk with a live person for 24 hrs and mailboxes were full to even leave a mssg. What a disaster. Upon finally talking with a live person and expressing concern and disappointment in residence as to website pictures, the comment was, " you signed a contract and we will not refund or move you." Luckily, I found a wonderful hotel and they worked with us on this emergency situation for although out a great deal of money, safety can not be priced. I feel they cater to international students who have no recourse in bad situations. I have traveled for 30 years with a fortune 100 company and have never been this disappointed. If I can help someone in the future avoid this horrible situation, I know blessings will come forward! Pls be cautious!

I stayed as part of a corporate event and stayed four days and three nights. A large conference room and several smaller rooms were rented as part of the event. We ate breakfast there each day and ate dinner one night and lunch on two days as part of the event. The food was generally pretty good. The lunch and dinners were buffets, the breakfast was table order. Our breakfast was confusing with three people stopping by and we were asked our room number multiple times including when we arrived.....only to have to write it on the receipt. Complete with included tip and a blank for another tip if we chose. Elevators wait was long as there were only three. Pluses and minuses capture the stay pretty well.
