I regretfully took up residency at The Beach House between June 2, 2005 and April 8, 2006. My criteria was a convenient location- between South Beach and Aventura. The location is superb, but that is where any positive attributes end. I was promised a ""long-term"" rate of $39.00 per day by the General Manager whose initials are C.C.- the agreement was acknowledged via telephone and personally witnessed by A.C. -then ""Director of Sales"". As it tgurned out, I was actually being charged $175.00 per day and was served with a legal eviction by one of the largest law firms in the country. Turns out, the entity filing the eviction against me- never owned the Hotel! Now, almost a year later, I'm still tied up- with a new law-firm and the court system to try and be restored to my previous condition. The previous law firm was discharged for reasons that I can't reveal yet. The Hotel was scheduled for demolition about 2 years ago, so I thought- for sure I'd get the very best long-term rate. The service was non-existant! I paid housekeeping ""on the side"" to clean and replace towels and bed linens, valet would occasionally take my car for their own use, the room was worn and outdated- yet still functional, the bathroom was in complete disrepair (I hired an outside plumber 2X to repair the head), it seems that the maintenace people intentionally sabotaged the loo! Hotel management found it necessary to call the police and falsely arrest me too. Conveniently, when I got out of jail the very next morning and returned to my room- it was in complete shambles! My property financial records, and a few personal items taken (stolen)- in particular, my paid receipts! It turns out that now, there is a new management team- covering up for the inequities of the previous ""owners"". The property is in disrepair as can be ascertained by checking out the Dept. of Business and Professional Regulations Division of Hotels.. Voilations!\r

So, I'm not to pleased to say the very least. BEWARE!!!!! \r

Pros: Great Location
