Some of the staff very good (Suzy and Banny) Some are very poor! Just come into your room and start chatting really loudly. Had a list of rules like a tenancy agreement and shift people around regularly! It says 6 bed on the ad but its actually 12 split into two rooms with a fake wall in between and only one bathroom! Oh and they were still building (which started at 8am) when we were there!

Good points Hostel is in excellent location for the beach. Couldn't get any closer if you tried. The roof is a brilliant place to go to chill out in the day and get ready for drinks in the evening. Some of the staff are really helpful (Suzy, Eastern European guy, security guard). Negative points The staff just walk in and out of rooms without letting you know what there doing and have mothers meetings in the room The rooms are not 6 bed but 12! They are still building at the hostel!

I enjoyed it here very much, the staff are very friendly and the location is excellent. I was only on planning to stay a week but I stayed a month. The roof top jacuzzi was excellent to help me relax before I went out for a good night on the town. I will definately be back here again.

The hostel was virtually perfect. You can't be the location and the staff was very accomodating. The room was filled but everyone got along and no mess was tossed around. The kitchen was great and no food was taken. All and all, I'd rate it near 100%.

They lie when they say they include the food. It's not included.

Only good thing about this Hostel was the Location and maybe the roof top although the pump techno all during the day when your trying to chill out, the free breakfast is 2 slices of stale bread, the dinners are absolutely terrible, staff is an argentinian family who just fight between themselves all day and come into your room at 2 in the morning to put a new name tag on your bed. They couldn't help you to save themselves. I wouldn't stay there again if it came with a free model under my arm.

Dear Luke: We are really sorry you didn't enjoy your stay in Miami. Deco Walk Hostel is under new management and working on better set to please all type of guests -including those who loves to party-. Our breakfast is fresh Continental style and although we treat ourselves as a family (including our guests) we do not have any staff member from Argentina. Also, our staff members are instructed to make sure every guest has their assigned bed. We also appreciate your feedback and again, we are really sorry for any inconvenient.

Great people. They didn't really try to screw us over or anything. Let us know about some cool things around town and offered they're tour connections, but weren't pushy or anything. They had decent deals. Staff was friendly. Our dorm smelled a little funky for some reason but there wasn't anything notably dirty. We only had 1 bathroom for about 12 people. that was a little interesting, definitely a backpackers culture kindof place :)

The charge includes three meals a day which is great value for money. Great location in the centre of South Beach with the roof top entertaining area overlooking the ocean. Fantastic.
