BlackBook "It's all about cheap charm. The reimagined Indian Creek Hotel becomes a traditional art deco hostel."
Gayot "Just two blocks from the beach, the Freehand Miami has repurposed the 1930s Indian Creek Hotel with outstanding results."
Oyster3.0

Lonely Planet "Get your room key – attached to a plastic alligator – and walk through the old Miami lobby, spruced up with souvenir-stand schlock, to your comfortable, earthy-warm digs." Full review
Jetsetter "A hip Miami Beach hostel with designer interiors and plenty of buzz from prestigious travel publications." Full review

Mr & Mrs Smith "Freehand Miami is a hip hostel-esque stay for sociable millennials." Full review

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.

Frommer's "Set back and hidden wisely from the street, The Angler's is a welcome vision of Deco-modernity on what has become an eyesore of a stretch of seedy Washington Avenue." Full review
Concierge "If this 47-room newcomer on the edge of SoFi (south of Fifth Street) is self-conscious about its conspicuous lack of glitz and flash, it doesn't show."
Travel + Leisure "Formerly Angler's Boutique Resort." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler99.6
"If this 45-room resort on the edge of SoFi (south of Fifth Street) is self-conscious about its conspicuous lack of glitz and flash, it doesn’t show." Full review
BlackBook "Comprised of four buildings—two 1930s-era Mediterranean Revivals, two new. Small but nicely-appointed rooms, all trading on "Hemingway slept here" cred. St. Tropez-style dining."
Star Service "This is one of the best bets in and around Miami Beach, even if it is off-beach." Full review

Avoid the units in back.
Jetsetter "A low-key but stately sleep melding 1930s Med Revival architecture with mod interiors steps from the sand." Full review
Gayot "Comprised of four, artfully renovated 1930-buildings, The Anglerâs Boutique Resort aims for gracious style and cozy ambience in the midst of South Beachâs frenzied scene."
The Telegraph7.0
"The Angler's is a historic Mediterranean Revival building with large rooms and duplex accommodations, some offering private patios." Full review
Forbes Travel Guide "A charming small hotel tucked away in a quiet tree-filled corner of Miami Beach, The Angler’s Boutique Resort makes you forget that you’re in South Beach." Full review
