Disgusted

This place was a nightmare and if there was a choice to choose 0 I would have. Had me waiting around before i could check in at 3pm. A mistake was made on the booking as I paid for a room with 2 bunkbeds and not 6 which i will have to contact Hotels.com about. I did not feel safe at all there and shared bathroom doors were broken and some didn't lock and just some random dude just walks in and lucky I was not in the shower which i never used as both shower and toilets were dirty with womans dirty knickers lying around. I think this place is more of a shelter for the homeless than a hostel for tourists.They even charge you for lockers.

Worst Travel Experience Of My Life

I booked a PRIVATE suite. These criminals call a room in the back of a 12 person bunk that you have to walk through a private room! I am a male, and when I arrived they said the only private they had was in an all female dorm! So I had to walk through a room where women expect privacy and tell them I'm staying in the room in the back! I walked in put my bag down, decided this was absurd and checked out. Bikini Hostel refused to refund me, even though this is false advertising, even though I didn't get what I asked for. And Hotels.com refused to help just blindly citing the Bikini criminal's refund policy. They can both go Eff themselves. I'll NEVER use hotels.com again. And FYI, there are no girls in bikinis, there's just desperate transient people from south florida with no place else to go. I'd give it negative stars if I could

Good for a quick stay in Miami. No frills but the connected bar is very handy for a quick bite and a few drinks. There's a nearby whole foods and both Walgreens and CVS are just blocks away. Don was very helpful during my stay and provided excellent service and information

This hostel feels more like a halfway house for homeless people, don't believe the photos. While the cheek in staff were friendly enough the rooms and the whole place felt unsafe and not like a leave you want to be. The bar next door was nice and was a short walk down to the beach.

Buyer Beware! Go elsewhere!

They are listed to have an airport shuttle and a cruise port shuttle, which was the main reason I booked here, but THEY DO NOT! There is no way to speak to anyone before your arrival. All phone prompts tell you to email. I emailed 3 times and NEVER heard back from anyone. Terrible customer service. They say they offer free breakfast and dinner but fail to tell you that you have to sign up for the dinner several hours before or you can’t eat. The breakfast is just sugared cereal and bread for toast. I don’t eat sugared cereals. Saying they offer a continental breakfast and only offer that is NOT a continental breakfast. I purchased a private room but had to walk through a room with 6 beds to get to a door with a small hallway to reach my “private” room. Room was dingy and filthy. Know that a police cruiser is permanently stationed right in front of the Hostel to keep an eye out on the permanent residents who live there. Terrible. Buyer beware. If you don’t mind staying in squalor then stay away.
