Absolutely amazing hotel stay before my cruise. This hotel is clean, convenient to shopping and…read moreplenty of restaurants/bars. Walking distance to a Publix, the mall, bakery, etc. The hotel checkin is on the 6th floor, the first floor is mainly a seating area and concierge. They offer free hot breakfast, mini fridge and microwave in the room, cruise shuttle at time of this review is priced at $12 with pick up times at 10a, 11a, and 12p. If you miss breakfast, they had breakfast bags with fruit and other grab and go items. You will need your room key to access the laundry room and guest floors. There is no carpet in the room I was in (basic king- not the elite level) and pets are not allowed. Service animals only. The hotel has a lobby bar, three restaurants are located right next door (Sproutz, Batch Gastropub, and Shahs of Kabob). I dined at Sproutz and Shahas of Kabob and both are good, but they are not affiliated with the hotel. I stayed 3 nights prior to my cruise and I really enjoyed my stay. The air conditioner worked with no issues, pillows are very soft, bed was firm, but not uncomfortable and I slept better in that bed, than my own. There is a master light switch to control the overhead light in the entry and bathroom. You can operate them separately (it just takes some flipping of lights to figure it out). Decent water pressure and nice, hot water at night. Morning time I suggest getting your shower in early. Hot water is still present but not as hot as it was the night before. Tip- I took my shower at 5/6am the morning of checkout and the water was hot and perfect for a nice shower before leaving for cruise. Staff was always smiling, friendly and willing to assist. Carlos at the concerige desk is very helpful, ask for his recommendations and he is more than happy to assist. The 7th floor has the laundry facility, but many machines were out of order. This is going on my pre cruise hotel list because it was the perfect hotel and the perfect location. It was about a 15min ride to the cruise port and airport. The cruise port ride was booked for 8am, so I beat the 9am bumper car cruise port traffic. The video I posted is short and quick, but a glimpse of the room

I checked in on the app the day before and picked the room. We parked in the garage, went to the lobby, and got our room keys. As we went to the room, there was a sign on the door indicating the room was occupied. I was surprised and ended up going back to the lobby to see what happened. It turns out that the app was glitchy and we were put in a different room number. The lady behind the counter made adjustments and we were able to stay on the same floor as what I originally picked, but in a different room. The room had a king bed, a fridge, microwave, a TV, drawers, and a bathroom with a shower. It was very clean. We got two drink vouchers to redeem at the lobby/pool bar, which was a plus, to enjoy while we were at the pool. The hotel has a fitness center as well. The continental breakfast provided a selection of coffee and juices for the beverages. The food items consisted of a waffle bar, different types of pastries, and breakfast foods to choose from. They offered a little more than some of the other locations I have been at.

We were quite impressed with how much room there was. Last time I stayed at an ES was over 10 years ago. - I'm not a fan if dark interiors, because it hides dirt and grime. However, it felt clean enough - Sofa bed was not very comfortable but most of them aren't. Other beds were nice and comfy. - Breakfast was a mad house, but good food. - Evening reception was crazy too. 2 drink coupons per person and long lines for the bar. Pretty sure everyone here was a cruise passenger. - Walking distant to local stores if you want to pick up last minute items for the cruise. Overall, good experience. Thanks ES.

I've renewed my Dutch passport in San Francisco, and Washington DC, and would have to say the…read moreoffice in Miami is by far the friendliest. Although, the Embassy in DC does throws a nice Orange Fest during April which is always fun. When you park and arrive in the building they ask you to sign in before you can enter any of the offices. For a small country the renewal requirements are pretty extensive from the passport picture, which has very specific sizing requirements, to the detailed application. Had to make an appointment online to see them first. You have the option of having the passport sent to you (but you must bring a self addressed prepaid envelope by one of their pre-approved vendors). I didn't bother. I just went back to the office to pick it up. I received an email telling me 2-3 weeks later it was ready for pick up. Well 3 months later I finally had a chance to pick it up. I made another appointment for my little one to get her initial passport too. The office has a waiting room with a TV which is a nice convenience. On the two occasions I've visited in Miami the office didn't seem too busy either. Since it's Brickell consider coming via metro. It's a little more convenient than dealing with the rush hour traffic.

One of my friends needed to renew his Dutch passport so I accompanied him to the Netherlands…read moreConsulate Services. All visitors for such services need to make advance online appointments which can become rather confusing since the web site is listed under "Dutchappointments" but more specifically being http://www.rsonac.org/other-services/8---other-logistics/schedule-an-appointment.html. I would also say confusing because of the interchangeability of words for the country, as being either Holland or the Netherlands but with the people being referred to as Dutch. Indeed, I onetime recall one of our many not to bright (and we do have a lot of them) U. S. Customs agents hauling one of my friends away when we were entering the United States. I enquired what the problem might be and was told that when questioned he had said he was from Holland but his passport indicated that he wasn't at all from Holland but in fact from the Netherlands. Go figure that one! LOL! Anyway, the Dutch or Netherlands Consulate Services, whichever, occupies a small but comfortable space on Brickell with the staff being very multilingual. Besides doing passports or merely attending to matters involving citizenship, they are friendly enough to chat with anyone interested in visiting Holland, having some brochures and travel information available and able to answer most any question you may have.

However, there seems to be a disconnect between the app (offsite) and the actual property (onsite). I checked in, added my card, and chose my room in advance--only to arrive and be told I needed to provide my card again, and the room I selected wasn't available. I was told the guest had been there since 2 days before, which suggests they extended their stay. If that was the case, I should have been notified in advance rather than being treated like I was mistaken or unreasonable. Room: The room felt dated and had quite a few noticeable imperfections. Very small. The bathroom wasn't thoroughly cleaned--there was visible dirt and hair left behind. The bed's underliner was stained, and there were multiple cosmetic issues like gashes, chips, and dents throughout the space. The shower had very low water pressure. We ended up doing some cleaning ourselves just to feel comfortable, which really shouldn't have been necessary. Staff: The front desk staff was pleasant, and Ariel in particular was friendly and helpful. However, the housekeeping and maintenance teams seem to need additional training, especially when it comes to cleanliness and guest readiness. Check-Out: Smooth and easy. I was able to extend my checkout time without any problems, and I received my final invoice before even leaving the city. Parking: Unfortunately, there is no self-parking. Valet is offered at a steep $60 per day. We opted to park on the street and feed the meter every 3 hours, which was still more affordable. As expected, parking in Miami Beach is a challenge. Overall, I was only in town for a wedding and didn't expect much however, I expected more for Hilton. Especially on Miami Beach where there are many boutique hotel options I went with a brand I knew. Mistake?

Came into Miami for business and we've had a hard time finding our, home hotel, when we're in town…read moreand we thought we'd try the EB. Has a distinctly European style to it, but I'll tell you we booked through Expedia and I've got a suite room that had a separate setting area with a desk with two sliding doors king size bed with a decent TV. I will say that the additional sound bar is weird because it doesn't sync up with the TV so you get a little bit of a lag or an echo and the TV doesn't turn up by itself nor does the TV mute and allow you to play the sound bar separately so there's a little bit of a disparity. Also, we had trouble with our air-conditioning, but once I pointed it out within an hour, the maintenance man had fixed the air-conditioning for the whole fourth floor because I was in a room about 15 rooms away from my coworker and both of us had a hard time sleeping last night because the lowest temperature we could get the room was 73 which doesn't sound bad but if you're trying to sleep you need to be in the high 60s. Another weird thing is they don't have a refrigerator in the room, but they have a refrigerator on our bar and so I had to get creative with putting my water and stuff in there to get a cold. I'd rather just have a fridge. But the big one is the shower shower is just amazing. It has as many showerheads as you could ask for I think two on the ceiling for coming out of the wall plus the one that is mounted to a hose. My room also had a bidet, but I didn't give that a shot but definitely would stay here again. We sat at the bar one night and had probably some of the best bar service we ever had a restaurant was pretty decent. Did a separate review for Miranda Mediterranean. The last thing I would say is the mechanism that holds the toilet paper roll in my room was installed upside down so anytime you want to use the toilet paper. It would slide off and go onto the floor so it was installed upside down so some weird stuff but definitely the room itself was cool.

People everywhere, folders flying, nerves running high. But once you get inside, everything shifts. It's calm, professional, and surprisingly well organized considering the madness in the lobby. The security guard at the front was super helpful and told me there are a bunch of different consulates in the building, so make sure you know which floor you're headed to before showing up. The Spanish Consulate itself was very structured and polite. They move people through fast but not rushed, and the staff were kind to everyone I saw. Heads up: they do take your original documents, so bring extra copies or scans for yourself before you go. That part makes some folks nervous, but it's part of the process. Honestly, I was there about two hours total and everything went smoothly once I got past the door. The staff are clearly doing their best to handle a huge crowd, and they were patient and professional the whole time. If you follow the directions, come prepared, and keep calm, you'll be fine. It's busy because everyone's trying to reconnect with their family history -- that's kind of beautiful, in its own hectic way. Pro tip: show up early, bring water, and have your documents in order. You'll survive it just fine.

Ni el medico es un irresponsable de emitir un certificado en estas condiciones y tampoco se va a convertir en un payaso ante el Condulado Espanol en Miami. Obviamente tampoco voy a recorrer la ciudad buscando un medico para que me emita un certificado medico como si yo fuera un titere del mi Consulado Espanol en Miami. Verguenza les tendria que dar entregar este formulario con esta clausula N4 y ademas no tengo porque desvelar al consulado espanol sobre mi salud y tampoco a la DGT de Espana porque en Espana no se solicita nada similar para renovar el carnet de conducir a un ciudadano. No soy yo ciudadano espanol? Cada ano que pasa veo menos servicios utiles para los ciudadanos espanoles. Da pena ver como trabaja este consulado. Que tengan muy buen dia. Jorge Soler
