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
"A hostel for sophisticated young travelers who care about style, atmosphere, and a good party." Full review

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
The Telegraph8.0

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.

Concierge "The hammam and sauna provide sybaritic pleasure, even if swimsuits dampen the vibe somewhat: Ask the attendant to run a bath for you in one of the steel soaking tubs in the main room."
Fodor's "An extension of André Balazs's trendy and hip yet budget-conscious hotel chain, the shabby-chic Standard is a mile from South Beach on an island just over the Venetian Causeway." Full review

"The blissfully remote, adults-only (14 ) Standard is about a mile from the beach, but it's still passionately hip." Full review
Time Out "Combining blond wood walls and white linens, the cabin-like spaces are simply and classy, some with outdoor clawfoot tubs." Full review
Star Service "This trendy spa hotel from Andres Balazs is operating at full steam." Full review
Gayot "Taking over the old Lido Spa, this property aspires to revive (and redefine) bathhouse culture."
BlackBook "Riding on the global "bathhouse" trend, tucked away from the cramped center of South Beach."
Frommer's "The quintessential spa resort, the Standard... is housed in Miami Beach's legendary Lido Spa spot, a place that was swinging back in the days when women still wore bathing caps." Full review
Afar Magazine "The Miami outpost of a hotel brand better known for its Los Angeles and New York properties, the Standard eschews the social scene and party vibe, instead focusing on wellness and health." Full review
Not For Tourists "Not your grandma's bingo, but you might lose bowel control."
