There’s also a guest kitchen, which is open from 7 a.m. until 10 p.m. Just make sure you remembered to bring your own food and don’t try to steal someone else’s.
Time Out "Small, intimate and quirky, the Freehand has more character than many of its South Beach competitors." Full review

It is technically a hostel, so you can choose from shared rooms for four or eight or private rooms for two.
