I like this hotel. Stayed once previously. I think I will choose the corner room next time as it’s has more counter/storage space. Property is clean, people are nice and you can walk to the beach easily. My one issue is that the breakfast has changed from the buffet at the sister hotel, the President? To a plate of eggs, toast, potatoes, two pieces of bacon, a bowl of cut fruit and a drink at the restaurant next door. Not a bad breakfast but underwhelming. I’d rather they reduced the resort fee and I would gladly buy my own breakfast elsewhere, as I plan to do for the rest of my stay here.

I like the location, didn’t like there was no actual pool on the roof top as advertised. The hotel offered free breakfast (nice Gesture) however, the choices or options were of poor quality. The orange juice was tasteless. Great welcome choice drinks tickets at the bar.

Reception staff were very good, and the room was clean, however he room size was small for 2 queen beds, and the breakfast items and the restaurant staff at breakfast time were both very disappointing. At 9 am, there was nothing to eat as breakfast, no plate and dishware, noclean table, and the staff no responsible.

Disappointed to find hair in the so-called 'clean' towels. The location is great, but the breakfast left much to be desired - overcooked scrambled eggs, fries, and plain toast (no butter, jam, or jelly provided). There were also a few cut fruits, but they weren’t replenished once gone. I wouldn’t recommend the breakfast, especially if you’re traveling with a young family.

Disliked: Amenities
We were overall disappointed with the actuality of amenities at the Penguin hotel. The breakfast vouchers to attend a different hotels breakfast were confusing and misleading. When we did find the breakfast situation, everything was cold, both the food and plates/utensils were poorly stocked and it was clear the hotel guests were far inferior to those ordering off the main cafe menu. The Penguin hotel is conveniently located next to other great options and within walking distance to nearly anything you’d want on Ocean Drive and Miami Beach. Hopefully you don’t have too much to carry because you’ll need to haul your luggage a few blocks as there is no parking/cars allowed on the streets in close proximity to the hotel. Hopefully you’re not looking for ice from the ice machine either. There is one machine for the whole building and it doesn’t keep up. The “king” room we rented was small and the bed was a full bed, not a king. For what we paid for this room, we wouldn’t stay at this hotel again and would opt for spending our money on something that had amenities right in or near the hotel instead of confusing and misleading shared services agreements with other hotels.
