“A good choice !!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

people found this review helpful

After a near 10 hr flight from London, having a comfortable base to stay is important and this hotel delivered on everything from the friendly feel of the place to the very convenient Shuckers bar and restaraunt (attached), down to the very helpful staff on the front desk.
We had a bay view room with a balcony and the views where stunning,the room itself had everything required.
The breakfast was substantial with a good choice of food which included boiled eggs and also warm patties and sausages. Tea and coffee is available 24hrs a day and also the free internet terminals are a great touch.
We used the local bus, which we caught outside the hotel to travel down to South Beach and found it to be a great service (even at 2am in the morning).
This place isnt the Ritz and doesnt pretend to be, but if you want a nice place to stay prior to a cruise or a weekend break you cant go wrong. Its clean and the staff are there to help you, just ask.

Room Tip: Ask about deals for a Bay view room.

“Did not get what we expected”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

This was our sixth BW in Florida the most expensive and the worst.The room was fine spacious with a nice balcony "But" the bathroom was terrible it was miniscule and badly designed (we are neither large or overweight) there was not even enough room to open the door when the bath mat was down.
Checkin was efficient, but not friendly to the point of being curt.
Shuckers the onsite restaurant was very enjoyable the service was fast and efficient the staff were friendly and responsive. A relaxing atmosphere with good food by the water.

“They stole me in the room of the hotel”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

hey stole a netbook from me that habia been bought recently, with which I lost all the photos of my vacations, since we had spent them to the netbook. This happened at hours of the return to Buenos Aires with which from the authorities of the hotel they promised to follow the topic and to give us a response. The city police intervened. Lamentable mas, which from the hotel and spoken with the manager, Oscar Linares, persons in charge did not do to themselves for this situation. Dirty hotel with smell of dampness, they did not give to me the quarter that we have paid since we were five and gave to us a room for four. Safety has neither the hotel, nor safety chambers, evil sets in the nights. Anyone can enter of the street without being seen. Good breakfast. Not volvere, I do not even recommend it since the attitude that had the management of the Best Western bonus on the bay inn Marine, not me satisfiso

“Excellent Service, Excellent View!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

person found this review helpful

The moment I called the hotel for reservations the service at this hotel was exceptional. They got me a room immediately. My stay was 4 nights and I requested a King size room with a Private Balcony overlooking the bay. They did not have it the first few nights but as soon as one was available the staff moved all of my stuff to an amazing room with a view. I did not have to do anything. RJ is one of the front desk personnel and he made sure all of this was put together. He even called me to assure me that a room was available and he put me on the airport shuttle list without me asking. The service was far beyond my expectation and with great people like RJ on staff this hotel will always be filled to capacity! Also the people doing room service are very very nice. Every time I saw them they asked if I needed anything.

Room Tip: King size room with private balcony viewing the bay.
