Think of it as the Comfort Inn in suite form. Both are Choice hotels in Miami Springs, by the airport. Same free one-way shuttle to the port, same $12 a night to leave the car, free hot breakfast and a free MIA shuttle.
It lands second because Choice lists no pool here — no pool, not a small one. What you get instead is a suite with a sofa bed, which matters when three of you share a room.
Book it if
- Three sharing a room, with the sofa bed
- Drivers leaving the car for a week at $12 a night
- Early risers. Breakfast starts at 6:00.
Look elsewhere if
- You want a pool the night before. None is listed.
- You need a guaranteed seat on the port shuttle.
- You're traveling with a pet.
