I'm a fan boy of sepp Blatter that's it. But I will be heading to Florida with my girl peak hurricane season end of august looking for a cheap hotel. What the difference between north and mid beach south beach is out the question guess there's nowhere to park the rental. And I will be at merlino for some volcano shrimp. Probaly go to a marlins game to.
You'd rather eat one night at Merlino's than stay at a hotel that has un-soiled linens? To each his own.
Anyway, August is part of the slow season so you'll have no problem finding a room. North Beach (Bal Harbour, Surfside, Sunny Isles) is getting almost expensive as South Beach. Mid Beach is your best bet if you're bargain hunting. Either that or just stay in Miami instead of Miami Beach. Just keep in mind that, as long as you're not going down on Labor Day weekend, you can get a great deal at a nice hotel in the late summer.
Oh, just for the record, Merlino's is about an hour's drive from Miami. So don't drink and drive. The unofficial Florida State logo isn't "Arrive on Vacation, Go Home on Probation" for nothing
