OSUBUCKEYES Posted January 11, 2007 Report Posted January 11, 2007 I was wondering if anyone was familiar with the condos that come up for Miami beach. The one that appears to be the best value is a 3* for $76 per night. The dates I am looking at are in May. The anemities listed are condo, suite, beachfront, complimentary breakfast, pools, laundry facility, and kitchenette. If this is not able to be identified please let me know if you have heard any positive or negative reviews about the Miami condos offered via hotwire. Thank you.

OSUBUCKEYES Posted January 11, 2007 Author Report Posted January 11, 2007 checking in on May 25th and checking out on May 28. Based on the fact that this rate is available over Memorial day weekend it seems pretty desireable.
thereuare Posted January 11, 2007 Report Posted January 11, 2007 This property has not yet been identified.Here are my thoughts on the above...The 3* rating is the most 'risky' on hotwire in terms of variance between properties... you could get something you think is worth more than 3* or something that you think is barely 2*. I have also tended to avoid Condo properties as it's not what i look for from a vacation, as many of them don't include daily housekeeping, and having my bed made everyday for me is one of those 'small luxuries' i enjoy while on vacation. I am opening up to them a bit more lately though, as now that we travel with a baby, having a refrigerator to keep milk (and soda, beer, etc) proves to be very convenient.So with the above noted, the price does look good for these dates and it's on the beach. If i was on a strict budget, or if i couldn't find anything near this price, i may give it a try... but i would make the purchase with realistic expectations... the place will probably be sufficient but i wouldn't expect 'hotel level' service and accomodations.If you do move forward with it please use this HOTWIRE link to begin your purchase.Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

OSUBUCKEYES Posted January 11, 2007 Author Report Posted January 11, 2007 Thanks, I appreciate the advice because I am unfamiliar with the condo properties that hotwire offers. I will look a little further because I do have quite a bit of time. I will certainly use the savings barn link if I do decide to make that purchase.

OSUBUCKEYES Posted January 15, 2007 Author Report Posted January 15, 2007 Hi,I went ahead and booked the property. It turned out to be the Best Western Oceanfront Resort Miami Beach. Mixed reviews but the location appears excellent so we shall see. Thanks for your help.
thereuare Posted January 16, 2007 Report Posted January 16, 2007 Best Western, even the description i read of this property, seems more of a hotle than a condo to, but the price seems right and we'll look forward to hear your Hotel Review upon your return.Thanks for giving it a shot, using our HOTWIRE link, and helping us add this property to the Hotwire Hotel List for this area.Enjoy your stay.
