I've stayed at this hotel before with very few problems in the past. The staff is nice, but they are not helpful at all. There are no trashcans to throw away your garbage which explains the presence of roaches. Also, the bar in the hotel is managed by an outside owner with the South Beach Group who trains his bartenders to rip people off. I was headed out of the hotel with my girl friends, but was stopped by the male bartender who asked, "hey ladies, let's do shots." Anywhere else in the world, this would mean that the bartender was offering us shots. We went to the bar, took a shot that he suggested and then got stuck with a bill that totalled over $50 (for five shots!!). He even made us pay for his shot. I told this story to someone in the airport who stayed across the street at Chesterfield, also part of the South Beach Group company. He said that the female bartender did the same thing to him only she stuck him with a $100 tab for two shots. Avoid the bars in the hotel at all......
