Blue Little Havana, Miami FL

My experience with this place has been dreadful. I pre-paid for a bed in a shared room for two separate nights. I asked to cancel over a month before the scheduled stay. I asked for a refund on the basis that a) I am unable to travel due to my mum being diagnosed with cancer and therefore unable to go on holiday, so we have to stay home for Christmas. (Note i booked this hostel before an onward flight to our family holiday destination the next day) b) I asked to cancel with sufficient time for them to receive a new booking thus not losing out. They outright refused. Didn't even say sorry or give an explanation. Where is the humanity in that? Clearly they only want their guests for their money and don't care about them. I would avoid at all costs. Not even a token half refund as a friendly gesture. I am disgusted.

+ Nice owner, good communication. Common kitchen. Billiards table. Nice decorations. Common area to relax. Feels safe. Fridge in private room.

- Kitchen is often not clean enough. Rooms equipment is very basic, rather used. AC is set to cold and you cannot regulate it.

Congratulations on the initiative of this place, very welcoming, familiar and cultural experiences of its guests, I will surely return

I came here from Ohio and booked in October and had accidentally booked in the dormitory room but decided not to fix it since I got a good deal on staying for a week. Upon arrival I was welcomed and shown around which was nice! The staff are friendly and will check in on you if you need anything. They don’t make you feel like unwelcomed or ghosted. The kitchen outside and huge. You’ve got two fridges to store food/drinks for your stay which is convenient. The dormitory room honestly isn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. I have social anxiety and thought I would be dealing rude or loud roommates but honestly they’ve all been quite friendly and everyone seems to stick to themselves so there’s never any drama. The beds are comfortable. You’re provided with a pillow and a thin bed sheet for a blanket. I didn’t know they didn’t provide fleece blankets or really anything that would keep you warm at night so that’s where I went wrong. I didn’t bring a blanket and with the ac on all night just makes the room freezing cold. I decided not to complain about it as I did bring some fall weather clothes with me to keep me warm at night. So just make sure to bring a blanket. Outlets are close to the beds for easy access to charge devices. I brought a lock for the locker to put personal items in it but the lock didn’t fit through the hole so I didn’t end up using it and kept everything in my suit case. I would consider it to be more like a little storage cubby only enough to store a little bit of clothes and shower supplies. It was a little smaller than what it looked like in the pictures. Everything is cleaned daily so there’s no need to worry about when something was last cleaned. I had surgery in the first couple days I was staying here and decided that I needed to book a private room for my nurse to monitor me during recovery as the dormitory room wasn’t going to work for that. Talked to one of the staff about needing a separate room for a day and she managed to help me book that and continue the rest of the time I booked in the dormitory room. Overall has been a good experience and definitely feels like a home away from home. Would recommend coming back here if I plan on traveling to Miami again.

The place was FANTASTIC nice lil get away from life and the prices are perfect for anyone's wallet. The check in process SUPER easy, definitely a MUST go if u like quiet lil get a way

It was an amazing experience. The best hostel ever! It's close to LoanDepot stadium, also close to 8th street (calle ocho), restaurants, supermarkets, bus stop. It's peaceful. We love it!

I liked so much this hostel, very clean and it’s pretty new, the staff is so helpful.
Is close to little Havana Calle 8, many stores around also.
I recommend 100%
