It is a practical base for moving through the neighborhood on foot, with LIK Fine Art Miami and New World Center also within reach.Inside, the rooms are set up for easy stays with air conditioning, free Wifi, a flat-screen TV, a wardrobe, a private bathroom, bed linen, and towels. In some units, a well-equipped kitchen adds an oven, a microwave, and a fridge, which makes it easier to keep your own schedule without depending on outside meals. Laundry service is available too, a useful detail for longer visits.The Firefly operates as a limited-service hotel, with self check-in via smart lock and no front desk service after 4:00 PM. Daily housekeeping is not included, though cleaning service can be requested for an additional charge.

Positive: The room/apartment was clean & very comfortable, with great AC, which was needed on the weekend I stayed! I felt the price I paid was really good value also.
Staff were very friendly & communication was excellent prior to my arrival, which made checking in very easy
Location is ideal - the Firefly itself is in a really nice area & is a 10/15 minute walk to the Beach, close to shops for groceries & resteraunts & if using public transport, close to bus routes which get you pretty much anywhere across the City.
Genuinely one of the best stays I've had anywhere & would definitely stay again if I visit Miami again - 100% recommend
Negative: Nothing, everything was spot on

Quiet shared back yard with astroturf and some chairs.
Negative:
Firefly is grossly misrepresented. It comes up as a hotel in Booking but it is NOT a hotel. It is more like a shared VRBO or a Latin American posada or converted house with single rent rooms. As a posada it would have been fine but the price was absurd. It was 15 min walk to commercial area and 20 min to beach. No services amenities. And still charging over $300/night. Absolute extortion for what we got and we were extremely disappointed. I called Booking to complain and make sure this is NOT listed as a hotel. I also complained to owner and she contradicted herself saying they are “technically a hotel” and that’s why Booking lists them as a hotel but they have 3 “dots” rather than “stars” because they are not a hotel. It’s a 2-star hotel with no service or amenities. And the “parking” icon on the site means there are “parking garages in South beach”. Also absurd.
Summary: Complete Rip Off

Customer service from Barbara was exceptional with clear communication.
It's almost similar to air BnB accomodation where you check yourself in but Barbara provided all the information and response time was perfect.
We stayed in room Number 1 which is off the reception. The room was equipped with a fridge, coffee machine, a lovely comfortable bed and an ensuite shower and toilet.
Location is perfect near 7th and only a short walk to Ocean Drive and fantastic Cuban food.
We stayed one night before a cruise and the location is perfect for anyone who is looking for a place to stay before or after a cruise.
We were even given a later check out time. Thank you.
