Bottom Line
The 92-room Days Inn North Beach is a budget property and typical Days Inn that happens to be located in an exceptional spot, just across a palm-lined street from the beach and ocean. On-site amenities include a small pool and sundeck lined with orange loungers plus a casual grill with outdoor terrace. This bright property has a Floridian feel, especially in the pleasant rooms, which are decorated in cheery oranges and yellows and stocked with mini-fridges, microwaves, and flat-screen TVs; some have oceanfront or partial ocean views. Convenient extras include laundry facilities and a game room with both pool tables and ping-pong tables. But travelers should be aware of some extra fees, including a resort fee, fee for parking, and fee for Wi-Fi in the room. San Juan Hotel offers another budget option with more modern rooms.

Scene
A budget chain hotel with a funky Florida feel, located steps from the beach
The two-pearl Days Inn North Beach is a standard chain outpost with a few nice features. From the exterior, this seven-story hotel has a South Beach Art Deco vibe utilizing colors -- white and aquamarine -- that are common to this part of Miami. Architecture in the lobby avoids the standard, pre-fab, drop ceiling construction typical of many budget chain hotels; instead, common areas are spacious and bright, decorated in turquoise and white with silver accents. Woven tub chairs, silvered side tables, and Sputnik-style chandeliers give a stylish finish. The feel is a little Florida retro, and the hotel’s bar and grill is fun and inviting, with indoor and outdoor seating, and a pretty bar and lunch counter. Upon close inspection, the hotel shows some wear and tear, but the atmosphere is upbeat and the proximity to the beautiful beach makes it a great spot for budget-conscious tourists, including couples, groups of friends, and families.
Location
Across the street from the ocean, in a walkable area, five miles from South Beach
This property sits just across from a beautiful beach separated by a pretty palm-lined street, with plenty of restaurants and shops within a walkable area. The North Beach area is up and coming in the nightlife department, but is not yet a mecca for those looking to party -- this is good news for those that are looking for all the beauty of Miami, but also some peace and quiet. For business travelers, the Miami Beach Convention Center is four miles away, or a 10-minute drive. For golfers, Miami Beach Golf Club is 13 minutes away by car. The shops, restaurants, and Art Deco district at South Beach are five miles away, or 22 minutes by car, as is the Port of Miami and cruise ship terminal. Miami International Airport is about a 30-minute drive away.
Rooms
Sunny, clean, bright rooms with tidy bathrooms and nice views but on the small side
Rooms at the Days Inn North Beach are basic, but clean and bright. There are a variety of room configurations, from Standard Double Rooms to Family Suites. Furnishings are on the simple side, with light wood furniture and wall-to-wall carpets, but cheery, sunny citrus colors in the bed runners, accent walls, and striped curtains keep things looking fresh. Many rooms have nice views of the ocean (partial oceanview or oceanfront); some have private balconies. Bathrooms are clean and basic, but on the small side, with either shower/tub combos or walk-in showers. Amenities include air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs with premium channels, microwaves, mini-fridges, safes, and free toiletries. There's in-room Wi-Fi, but it costs an additional fee.
Features
Outdoor pool and sundeck, bar and grill, and game room
The Days Inn North Beach features a small outdoor pool with a spacious deck that's lined with attractive orange loungers along with tables, chairs, and umbrellas. The on-site bar and grill is fun and casual, with indoor and outdoor seating, ocean views, and good people-watching -- although breakfast, served in the lobby, is not included in the room rate. A beautiful beach is located right across the street. One highlight (especially for kids) is the on-site game room, complete with both pool tables and ping-pong tables. Vending machines in the lobby sell coffee and tea. The hotel provides coin-operated laundry facilities. Fees can add up at this property; expect to pay a resort fee and a fee to connect to Wi-Fi in the rooms.
