This was my 5th time staying at Freehand Miami. You can’t ask for anything more closer to the beach for a fraction of the cost. Walking distance to shopping and free trolley transportation in front of the hotel. Visiting from Canada I prefer to spend money on experiences and shopping vs an over priced hotel. This is ideal for those who aren’t picky and don’t expect perfection. They have bikes, chairs and umbrellas to use for free. You can rent the entire quad room like my friend and I did or rent a private room. April, May and October are ideal times to visit. Not too busy and the weather is perfect and south beach water is warm. Thank you staff for all the help. Don’t forget about the happy hour! Amazing place to stay and I can’t wait to stay at Freehand Miami in October. Travel tip: we arrived at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. Took a bus to the Fort Lauderdale Tri-Rail station. Unfortunately train broke down so it was out of service. Ended up taking an Uber from the Tri-Rail station to Freehand Miami for $42 Canadian. That is less than half the price if we were to take an uber from the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood.

Cute place. Charming room. The air conditioner was really loud and ran all night. Very comfy bed and the robes were a nice added feature. The courtyard is lovely and very relaxing. I’d consider staying again for a quick trip with my husband.

Great location! Love the outdoor area. Beach access and bus stop across street. Free 2-hour bicycle use is super cool though I didn’t have time to use one. Beach towels, shower towels, and hair dyers available for no fee. Reasons for giving a 4/5: The shelf built into my bed looked like it hadn’t been cleaned or wiped down in a long time, and the bathroom floor around the shower could use a deep clean. It seemed housekeeping totally turned my sheets around (I brought my own and didn’t expect anyone to touch them). I do wish guests didn’t have access to the air conditioner controls because my roommates kept turning it off, making the room very stuffy in 80-degree weather. However I would still recommend Freehand and will return!

As a host of a hostel I was a bit hesitant to book the shared dormitory. I gave it a shot and it wasn’t bad at all. There was a bit of dust in the bunks beds but they were clean and comfortable. The bar pool area is beautiful and inviting. The staff is also very pleasant. Parking was difficult but once I found a spot everything was walkable and close. I enjoyed the beach was nearby as well.
