The Setai

2001 Collins Avenue
Miami Beach, FL 33139

Jeremy S. writes: Best "hotel" room I've ever stayed in, ever.

It wasn't really a hotel room, it was more of a drop dead gorgeous condo masquerading as a hotel room. I was in a 2 bedroom suite in the tower sharing my princely space with the bro. Ridiculous amenities…
