President Hotel South Beach is an older, renovated hotel in an excellent location just a block from the beach and Ocean Drive, with easy access to nearby activities. The rooms are described as comfortable, hygienic, clean, simple, and small, but not modern or as fancy as presented online. The lobby and breakfast area are quite modern. The hotel offers a good, substantial included breakfast with choices like scrambled eggs, waffles, sausages, potatoes, cornflakes, and fruit. A resort fee covers breakfast, beach towels, bottled water, and access to the small rooftop pool, which can be crowded. The staff receives consistent praise for being very friendly, kind, caring, respectful, helpful, and accommodating. Excellent customer service includes being helpful with luggage, late check-outs, and local suggestions. While the hotel is simple, its great location and very amiable personnel make it a recommended choice for visitors planning to spend most of their time at the beach or in town.
