Ah, Briteline Station. A yellow explosion of everything you didn't ask for in a travel hub…read more Aesthetically, it's like a lemon threw up and said, "NEON." It's a lot to handle, honestly. If airports are elegant chaos, Brightline is... well, a well-intentioned chaos with a touch too much flair. The smell? Oh boy. I don't know if they're going for "fresh" or "citrusy," but it hits you like a scent bomb that's somehow both overwhelming and... confusing? I'm not sure whether I'm in a train station or a high-end cleaning product store. Bathrooms? Peak. They were actually the highlight--clean, functional, and definitely the only place where I felt my dignity was intact. But when you have to do your business on a train with moving bathrooms, it adds a level of adventure I didn't ask for. The whole "swaying while you use the necessary " thing is a unique thrill, though. The store? Closed early the morning Now, let's talk about the train itself--big, comfy, and pretty solid for a ride. The seats are spacious, and the vibe is more "luxurious commuter" than "who's-holding-my-seat" chaos. Would I return? Well, I guess. The train's solid, and the station's got character... even if that character is a bit much. But hey, it's an experience, and sometimes you have to embrace the madness.

There is no bathroom nor security, not even cameras. So good luck with your personal safety! Until the area around this station is properly redeveloped, I would say to avoid it and take trirail elsewhere.

When ever you travel to new and different places , it really pays to look at all your option of…read moretransportation. The choices are endless. Do we take a taxi to our hotel ? Do we rent a car? Use Uber ? The choice that you make can save you big Bucks! My wife happen to read reviews of the orange line on Miami Metro Line. You can catch the orange line right at Miami International airport. The orange line stops just a few blocks away from our hotel. And guess what ? A one way ticket is only $2.25 . There were security officers at the ticket machine to help anyone who needed help. So the two of us to get to the hotel only cost us $4.50 total. I have to say that the Metro Line wasn't new by any means, nor the fastest, but it was clean ! For the price of &4.50 for two it cant be beat! There was plenty of security at the airport as well as all along the ride to the hotel. So the next time you fly into Miami International airport, keep a open mind and consider Miami's Metro Line for your transportation needs. I'm glad we did!

( Miami - Dade county, Broward county, Palm beach county) Super convenient public transportation. There's Free parking lot for those who rather not drive for a long trip and decided they'll get there by train. It's about 9 bucks from Miami to Palm beach. I'd say a two hour ride. In total. I believe the train passes every 30 minute. But don't quote me, you can always check the train schedule online. I'd say it was pretty cool , nothing fancy but super reliable. Cool experience riding on the train.

The stations always smells of urine and the elevators are outdated. While I am sure they pass inspection yearly, they could still use an upgrade. For one they are way too small. When my son was stroller age, I could barely fit his stroller in the elevator. The wheels were barely able to fit through the elevator doors. Transportation itself is ok as long as the trains are not late or stuck on the track. Perhaps this was the motivation to replace the older the trains for newer ones. While I have seen the implementation of newer trains, all trains have not been replaced. I rode two older trains today that reeked of urine and were a little dirty.

Apparently it had been made and was ready on time, just waiting for my attendant to bring it to me..... hum, the bag had the time and my room # on it, so I picked it up and was told I should wait for him to bring it to me, which I ignored;) When I was getting off at my stop, inch trash had never been picked up. Mind you I paid $350 extra for the upgrade. So not worth it just FYI. They are severely lacking in customer service, seems to be a foreign language to its employees;) Food and ride were nice though;)

Well I realize how do I now have over 100 check ins here but no review. So let me tell you about…read morethis place what you don't already know. The Metrorail comes in here but over the last thirty years as the City of Miami has evolved so has their central station. Years ago it was Government Center and I would connect to the metro mover. Now as Downtown has changed this truly is the main station. I come into here from Miami Airport to get to Downtown. Also it backs up into Brightline which is around the corner literally steps away. Lastly all the City buses come through here around the building there is a place a block up for the buses that go 595, in front of the building is buses going every ten minutes or so to the Golden Glades than a few steps from that at the side entrance to Metrorail is the 95 express buses. This place is literally a pu pu platter for all your transportation needs in and out of the City of Miami. I highly recommend it as parking is getting increasingly harder to find as well as expensive. You can get monthly passes which make it even more affordable if you come here daily as I do. Also across the way is a brand new Einstein's for a quick morning bite. It is very well lite in the area so don't let the name Overtown fool you it seems very safe. So far so good.
