I should've taken my Lyft up to the Metrorail Transfer Station if I had known about this before... Do NOT use the vending machines here. First I tried using the snack machine. I inserted my coins first and the bill slot did not work, so I pushed coin return and it did not return my change to me. Then I tried using the Pepsi machine. Every time I put in my dollar and tried to make a selection, it spit my dollar back out. And finally, I tried using the Coca Cola machine. The machine took my bills, but I think something was wrong with the number pad. When I pressed coin return, the screen showed my money being returned in 25 cent increments, but no coins came out. Oh and conveniently, the snack machine had a plastic covering the QR code for refunds. My phone wasn't able to scan it. My phone was able to scan the Coca Cola machine's QR code for a refund.

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.

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!

The main criticism is that the trains don't come frequently enough! As to the actual station, as usual for a Tri-Rail station there's not enough benches... or trash cans. The Metro-side's construction often takes too long and I'm seriously concerned about the accessibility as a result. In addition, there's also so much anxiety if the train is coming and the trains don't run late enough.

The stations always smells of urine and the elevators are outdated.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.
