My stay at Collins Apartments By Design Suites had its ups and downs. The ocean and marina views from my room were absolutely stunning, and the spacious accommodations provided a nice sense of comfort. However, I encountered issues with the hidden resort fees and the overall outdated vibe of the place. The location, while close to the beach, was a bit too far from the more lively areas of South Beach, making it less convenient than I had hoped.

The spacious room I stayed in offered beautiful views of the ocean and marina, which I really appreciated. However, the room itself felt a bit tired and could definitely use some upgrades.

I enjoyed the immediate access to the beach, which was great for soaking up the sun. On the downside, getting to South Beach or downtown Miami felt cumbersome and required a lot of Uber rides.

Though I appreciated the availability of dining options on-site, I found the bar restaurant to be overpriced for what it offered. It lacked the vibrant atmosphere I was hoping to experience.

The pool area, despite being a highlight, felt somewhat neglected and outdated. Additionally, the resort fee added an unexpected cost without clear communication about what it covered.

My stay at Collins Apartments offered stunning ocean views and a spacious layout, which I truly appreciated. However, I encountered several downsides, such as hidden fees and a confusing identity for the hotel. The service wasn't as helpful as I hoped, and the location, while still enjoyable, felt a bit far from the main areas I wanted to explore.

The view from my room was simply amazing, overlooking the ocean and marina. However, I found the room itself to be a bit tired and in need of upgrades, especially the bathroom. It felt clean, but the overall maintenance could be better.

While the valet service was friendly and accommodating, I experienced rudeness from the concierge and faced several frustrating hidden fees during my stay. It felt like I was being asked to pay for more services than I expected.
Location
5.0
The location is convenient for beach access, but it's a bit distant from the heart of South Beach and main Miami. This meant using Uber more often than I’d have liked. While nearby dining options were available, it still felt like a trek to find good breakfast spots.
Dining
5.0
The bar restaurant had a limited menu and was quite overpriced, which didn't make it an appealing option for dining. There were a few local dining options nearby, but I wish I'd had more variety right at the hotel.
Facilities

Amenities like the pool area were nice for relaxing, but I found the furniture and pool bar to be aging and not well-maintained. Also, hidden costs like the compulsory resort fee added up quickly without clear communication about what was included.
