  • this weekend actually thursday through saturday I'm staying at Hotel Indigo Miami and Brickell.

  • I feel like it's like a business c area.

  • It's very clean.

  • I've never been to this area of Miami but I like it.

  • It's very nice still in the city, you know, you've got your high rises.

  • Uh saw lots of dog owners this morning walking their dogs.

  • So I'm sure there's like apartments and condos around here that are dog friendly.

  • Lots of areas where dogs can relieve themselves to like right across the street.

  • There's one right around the corner, there's one so very dog friendly area, which is great because I always bring kuma with me or try to bring kuma with me on any of my trips if I can.

  • So having a dog friendly area is really great for both of us.

  • So I actually got in last night at around eight p.m. And when I originally checked in I was given a room 14 five which is on the 14th floor, but it was like right next to the elevator which concerned me a bit, but it wasn't any of the noise by the elevator that was bothering me, It was the room next door to mine that was really bothersome.

  • So everything seemed fine when I went to bed around, I don't know 10 ish.

  • And then around 10 30 I heard these girls talking very clearly and they were listening to music.

  • So at first I thought it was in the hallway and I would go away but I just kept on going and going.

  • So I went out to the hallway to see who was there and if I could ask them to keep it down a bit but nobody was there.

  • Then I realized it was the people staying next door to me because the room that I had wasn't adjoining room.

  • So there was a door that you know if it, if you book two rooms together that you couldn't unlock and go to the other room as well, but you can completely hear them anything.

  • They were saying I could just hear the entire conversation, the music.

  • I mean it was just crystal clear and I was just going nuts and it wasn't their fault because you know, they're not yelling or anything, they're just having girl conversations and listening to music and having fun.

  • So it's not like I could just call security on them because they want to enjoy their room too.

  • And when I called the front desk last night they offered to switch my room but I was like, you know, I'm already in bed, it's like 11 o'clock at night.

  • I really don't feel like switching rooms right now.

  • So eventually I just fell asleep.

  • I think I just got used to the noise.

  • Oh come on, let's come on, come on baby.

  • Okay, very nice.

  • Oh you look so cute, look at you.

  • So anyway, uh you know, eventually I went to sleep.

  • I think I just got used to the noise and um but when I woke up this morning at around a dish I heard the girls just coughing is a normal cough and then I heard them using the bathroom and I was just like that's it.

  • I can't I cannot take another day of this and then have a horrible night of sleeping.

  • So I went to the front desk and asked them if I could switch rooms and they were very nice about it and very understanding.

  • So they immediately gave me another room.

  • Um They gave me another upgrade to the corner room.

  • So I'm still on the 14th floor but I'm in room 14 14 now in the corner so this room is much better.

  • I'm not hearing any noises, it's not an adjoining room, it's not next to the elevator, it's you know at the end of the hallway in the corner and it's more spacious so I have like a living room area, A bigger bathroom.

  • So it worked out for me.

  • Yeah I had to suffer a little bit last night but it wasn't that bad especially for this room that I got right now.

  • So let me give you a little room tour.

  • Okay so this is the new room that I got upgraded to room 1414.

  • It's a corner room.

  • It is an upgrade because I have this extra space here now.

  • Uh so this is kind of like your lounge living room area where you can watch the tv here.

  • Uh there's actually two TVs in here now.

  • So one tv in here and then one in the bedroom area.

  • But I do like this extra space.

  • Um kuma loves carpet and rug.

  • So this is great for her.

  • And then on the other side is the area for the iron ironing board closet with hangers, a digital safe.

  • And they even provide extra comforters and blankets which they did not have in the other room.

  • So I do like that because they keep these rooms super cold.

  • I warmed it up a bit but it's still super cold in here.

  • There's your ice bucket down there and over here is the storage area.

  • Yeah I need to clean all that up but it just kind of like stuffed everything there right now Broten Koumas bed so she can relax while I'm out.

  • Uh This is the working desk area and the coffee station as well.

  • Uh Lots of space where I can do my work which is great because I do have to work while I'm here.

  • So I already kind of set up my station.

  • Their wifi is working fantastic so far and in the corner is the curing machine.

  • I have not used it yet but they have several choices like rainforests, bold coffee Colombian decaf green tea, lots of outlets.

  • There's like two outlets, Their USB outlets and then on this side as well there's an outlet on this lamp, two outlets, two USB ports and then more outlets and USB ports.

  • So you're not gonna run out of outlets here and then below here is the drawers.

  • So there's like six doors you can use.

  • And this over here is the fridge which reminds me I gotta put all my stuff in here, so it's a little fridge but they have a little freezer in there too which I always appreciate because they carry ice packs with me so I can keep my stuff cold.

  • So this is our view.

  • It's actually quite nice because we get the pool view.

  • So that's on the sixth floor.

  • Again we're on the 14th floor and then you know you get like this Miami Cityscape view but I do like that, I can see the pool from here to see how busy it is.

  • And then this is the bed, the king size bed, uh king size bed we slept on last night was fantastic.

  • It felt really comfortable, you know besides the noise that we heard.

  • We slept pretty well.

  • Uh And then this nice wall art here.

  • Pretty cool.

  • I like it.

  • Another USB for more outlets and uh Oh it's a wireless charging service to cool.

  • Oh and also yeah that's the other TV.

  • So one TV in the bedroom and one TV and the lounge area over here.

  • On the other side of the bed is the phone and alarm clock.

  • And right next to the bed is the bathroom.

  • And this bathroom layout is much nicer in my opinion.

  • I like the corner layout that they did.

  • Uh so they have some hooks here where you can hang your stuff, another hook for your towel, your bath towel and lots of towels down there.

  • There's the shower.

  • So I haven't used the shower yet so I don't know what the pressure or temperature will be like but I have a feeling that it'll be okay.

  • So they have the rain shower head and handheld shower as well.

  • And here is the sink.

  • Actually, now that I look at this, I have more counter space in this room too.

  • I felt like the other room.

  • I had maybe like this much counter space because the sink is so huge but now I have even more space so I appreciate that.

  • So yeah, so that's the room tour.

  • Like I said, I'm much happier with this room than the last room.

  • So I'm glad I went down and said something.

  • So there is a pool here, it's on the sixth floor, There's also a gym here and um an on site restaurant and bar.

  • So the main reason I'm actually in Miami in this location is because I had to go get my Japanese passport renewed luckily I'm able to renew my passport in Miami which is about a 4.5 hour drive from Tampa where I live and it's called the consulate general of Japan in Miami and it's in the Brickell area.

  • So I wanted to get a hotel that was close by and yeah it was super close.

  • It was only like a five minute walk, like literally right around the corner.

  • So it was very convenient for me to stay here and then for lunch right after I was done with my appointment was the public's right next door.

  • So I just went to go get a sandwich there.

  • I haven't really checked out what else there is to eat around here.

  • But that's just one option if you're looking for like a grocery store.

  • There was also a 7 11 to nearby.

  • So those are some options if you need like water or anything, you know like medications and stuff like that, you do have to valet park here.

  • So I believe the cost is $30 a night which to me is worth it because if you're gonna come to downtown Miami anyway you're gonna have to pay for parking unless you take a Uber.

  • But anyway it all adds up so $30 a night isn't that bad.

  • Plus they park in the garage for you.

  • So it's nice and cool.

  • It's a super nice hotel.

  • Great location for the things I need to do.

  • Great location for dogs because there's lots of locations they can relieve themselves and their pet friendly.

  • So yeah, I hope this review helped you out.
