Riande Continental "Avoid"
Date: November 7, 2005
Reviewer:
Miami Beach 411 User, London, England
General conditions: In severe need of re-decoration. The hotel is dirty, all the corridors have filthy scuff marks on the walls as do the rooms, it has not seen a lick of paint since art deco times, lighting in the common parts is glaring economy bulbs, the furniture is massively outdated and tired, and the carpets are grotty, old and worn. My Remote control didn't work and when operated manually the TV had bad fuzzy reception on every channel.The advertised mini bar in the room was a small empty fridge under the TV. The bathroom had a cutdown plastic bath, with plastic wall paneling and dirty blue tiling on the floor. The walls were thin with no sound insulation so I had to contend for three nights with the insessant manic laughing and nocturnal activites of the room next door. My internet connection was broken and was told it would cost 4 dollars per minute (YES 4 DOLLARS each minute !!!!!!!), if it were working.

The experience at breakfast (promoted as full continental breakfast "included in price") is just about the meanest and shoddiest affair I have been unfortonate enough to experience.There are three nasty looking cereals, and the cereal bowls are strategically designed to allow just one scoop - smaller than the average coffee cup (not an exaggeration!) There are two toasters and a stack of cheap bread, once you have toasted the bread there is NO Butter, but a bowl containing creamer-sized foil tubs of something which the waiters claimed to be butter, but in fact is a synthetic chemical paste-like substance that renders the toast inedible. It is clear the hotel have bought a cheap bulk assignment to fob the guests off with. In addition to toast there is a basket of greasy-sponge cup-cakes (No joke!) and if you are lucky you can get a tea or coffee, but espresso and capuccino cost extra. Finally, and to add insult to injury, the waitresses hand out yellow bill receipts (saying suggested tip). This is only one dollar and I actually felt sorry for these nice latin ladies as judging by the way the hotel conducts it's business they are probably underpaid, so I had no qualms in leaving this. For an English man to have a written request for a tip handed directly to me in a hotel is just extraordinary! - perhaps not so in America?


Bizarly this hotel is described as an art deco hotel with full facilities, including room internet access,mini bar etc. Despite the high occupancancy, and cost of rooms, it is clear the management have tried to cut every corner imaginable in running this hotel, giving the guests as little value as possible for their money.

"Don't waste your money"

Don't waste your money at this hotel. Besides dirty rooms with paint chipping off the walls and ceiling and dirty bathrooms, the staff was very rude and unpleasant. This place and it's staff has forgotten that they are a hotel. I would never recommend this hotel. Spend a little more money and stay someplace else.

"Won't happen again"
Date: September 26, 2005
Reviewer:

I recently stayed in the Riande Continental because of its price, its pool, & its proximity to the beach. Unfortunately, that's about all this hotel has to offer. Although the location is wonderful (being only a short walk to the beach, Lincoln Road, Ocean Drive, etc.), the cleanliness of the room and hospitality of the staff were sub-par at best, which made the time spent there rather unpleasant. Black scuffs and rust stains lined just about every inch of the walls and furniture. The air conditioner was broken. The bathroom was too small to use. The sheets and towels were extremely dirty. The television only has about 5 channels to offer...I could continue, but I'll just leave it at that. I honestly have low standards when it comes to hotels - all I really ask for is clean sheets and a comfy pillow - but the Riande lacked both. Unless you speak fluent Spanish and enjoy filthy hotel rooms, I highly suggest paying a little more and staying somewhere else.

"Comfy and Friendly"
Date: February 17, 2005
Reviewer:
Miami Beach 411 User, Washington, DC
After reading the reviews of the 5-star hotels, I am very glad I choose the Riande. Decor is kind of cheesy '70s and rooms are small, but there is not one drop of attitude to be found here, and it is affordable. I was able to check in early. Staff were always smiling, friendly, and helpful. Front desk staff are very professional and fast. And Willie at the pool-side bar is a joy, as he encourages all of us city-slickers to slow down and relax. The location can't be beat. Direct beach access. Sits between the Delano and the Shore Club. We walked to Lincoln Ave almost every day either to shop, eat, or see the antique market on Sunday. The only disappointment was the pitiful breakfast, but even that was minor given the smiles of the wait staff. I encourage everyone to enjoy the bars, restaurants, and glamour of the 5-stars without having to pay for it. It was the perfect vacation. I'll be back there next year. I also recommend Puerto Sagua for heaps of great food at afforbale prices.
