SOLE Suites by GuruHotel

The hotel is situated in a convenient location, to the beach, shopping, stores, pharmacy etc. However, the hotel is not exactly family recommends since club music nearby was blasting loud, all the way to 3 or later am. The hotel needs an update badly, rusted bathroom fixtures, peeling wall paint and plaster, beat-up room corners and main hotel gate was a disaster, band-aided countlessly. Never figured it out how it works when no one was at desk. Right outside the hotel curb, the sewage smelled due to broken off lid with very dangerously sticking r-bars. Our room on 2nd floor was cursed by the water pump noise that “ couldn't be adjusted or fixed” the water pump cycled 24/7, every 15-30sec for about 8-10sec. The kick from the pump was very annoying, loud and the pump wasn't even on the 2nd floor but in the cellar. We got woken up many many nights from it.

The places are large and the staff is accomodating, but the noise from the nightclubs outside makes it unbearable... If you have kids or are looking for a quiet time look elsewhere. TRUST ME! The rooftop pool is such a miss, there's a TON of space and they've managed to put the smallest bathtub excuse of a pool. Inside the apartments are very large, however there is an awful smell of humidity, so much so that the couch and the chairs which are made of fabric have absorbed the smell and regardless how low you set the AC the room will still smell. All of that is fine, but the noise... until 3am you will be listening to 5 sounds simultaneously every single night.

We stayed one night with family. Awesome place for a few days with kids, but just for a day or two depending on ages of the kids. Clubs do play music till 1 or 2 am but it wasn’t as loud and ok for us to sleep. Very close to COVID testing center right next door. Also close to 5 th avenue shopping and the beach. I would definitely return there.
