Surfside Beach

We liked the property. We didn’t spend much time in the hotel room we were out and about most of the time so all we needed was a nice place to sleep. The rooms are small, but cute. The hotel amenities are basic. The hotel has a lot of architectural charm. It’s a little bit of a walk to the beach, but not a big deal. The staff was very pleasant. Overall we had a good stay.

I really loved this hotel it was super nice and you had access to most of everything on the resort i would give this place 5 stars the only reason i gave it 4 was because prior to booking it didn't list all of the extra fees and things that i would need to pay like how the hotel does not offer parking for the people staying there the only option is paying for valet which is 60 dollars a night or finding somewhere else to pay and park there was also a 600 dollars deposit placed on my card which a deposit is okay every hotel does it but i did not know it was 600 what so ever plus when i was checking out they gave me a receipt and told me okay here is your remaining balance and i was confused and saw that they were charging me 152$ for the resort fee for 3 days and i didnt use or touch anything there besides the pool it was a really nice stay besides that i just wish i knew all of this beforehand.

Hotel is a great location for shopping and eating at the Brickel city center. 2nd floor off the elevator puts you right in the center. Things I didn’t like was the weird elevator to rooms or floors to access other areas of the hotel. Terrible. To get into an elevator You need a wood key card(which half the time didn’t work) to get around, there are no floors or buttons for floor numbers or areas in the elevator. There’s a picture screen outside you must tap which will only allow you access to your floor and maybe a restaurant floor, swimming pool level and maybe the roof top bar if it’s working that moment. Without that temperamental wood card you could get stuck somewhere, even on the floor of your room. Maybe you can get to the lobby if you keep pressing the lobby icon on the screen. I guess they have this weird setup for security, but it’s a bad feature to the hotel in my opinion. The swimming pool area is tight and not necessarily kids friendly. The food at Quinto is very good, but everything is pricey. Just about every where and for everything a 20-22% service charge is added to your bill (for your convenience 🤔) they say. Then they bring you a check with a line for additional tips!) it’s a turn off in my opinion but I guess they are making sure they get their maximum tips for their workers. Rooms are small, beds are small, and area is a little noisy. Yet staff is very friendly and helpful.
