I had mixed feelings about my stay at Tides South Beach. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of South Beach, which made accessing restaurants and the beach super convenient. However, the noise from the outdoor lounge singer below our room on the second floor was unbearable at times, leading to a restless night. The staff's response to our concerns was not ideal, and while our room was spacious, some amenities felt lacking.
