“Hotel Cocaine” centers on Roman Compte, played by “Law & Order: SVU” alum Danny Pino, a Cuban exile and the general manager of the Mutiny Hotel. The Mutiny was a hotbed of activity, attracting a mix of Florida businessmen, politicians, international drug lords, CIA and FBI agents, models, sports stars, and musicians.
