The Leslie Hotel on Ocean Drive offers a well-located stay directly across from the beach. The rooms are described as nice, cute, quaint, and spacious, with all basic necessities. A significant highlight for many guests is the rooftop terrace, featuring a saltwater pool and hot tub with views of the ocean, which is frequently enjoyed. The staff is generally noted as very friendly, helpful, and accommodating, often making guests feel like family. A notable service is the provision of beach towels, chairs, and umbrellas daily. The location is perfect for access to the beach and Ocean Drive, while being a block away from the louder clubs, contributing to a quieter atmosphere. However, some guests note the area can still be brutally loud. The hotel requires some renovations, with mentions of a confusing shower design with frosted glass and a noticeably risen floor in one room. While most staff interactions are positive, one isolated incident of rude treatment is noted. Many guests enjoyed breakfast at the on-site restaurant and express a definite intention to return.
I stayed at this hotel during my vacation in Miami and everything was excellent. The views and breakfasts were great, but the pool experience was the highlight for me. A special thanks to Kevin, the pool attendant, who made everything so much more enjoyable with his great service.

Just wanted to say thank you to both Edin and Raul who were extremely helpful, friendly and professional when dealing with them both today. They both put a smile on my face and were a pleasure to deal with. Thank you both.
