Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. The location was convenient with plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby, but some concerning individuals were wandering around. The service was top-notch, with incredibly courteous staff, but there were a few issues with housekeeping. The dining experience left much to be desired, served on plastic dishes and lacking vegetarian options. However, the hotel did have some facilities to offer, making the stay more comfortable.
A good place to stay around 15 to 20 minutes from Miami, perfect for a getaway. The rooms were clean and comfortable, suitable for cruisers. However, there was a weird smell and limited channel options. The hotel's service was unprofessional and lied about shuttle services, and there were too many fruit flies. The location is fairly well lit at night but not ideal for Ft. Lauderdale due to proximity to a cemetery and truck parking. The dining options were very basic, lacking variety. On the plus side, the hotel is close to fun nightlife and shopping.
I chose this hotel mainly due to its great location, close to the airport and cruise terminal, which was perfect for my needs. The rooms were extremely clean and had all modern fixtures, although I encountered weird bugs crawling on the desk and in the bathrooms. The service was a bit of a mixed bag as they were extremely friendly but had a mishap which left us stranded at the wrong location late at night. The dining experience was so-so, and the crowded breakfast area led me to opt for nearby alternatives. Overall, a decent stay with some ups and downs.
The hotel is conveniently located close to the airport and cruise terminal, making it perfect for travelers. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff and accommodating various requests. The dining experience offered a good range of options, despite the temporary setup. The value for money was reasonable, particularly considering the great location and service.
The hotel was perfect for our travel needs, with a spacious room offering excellent lighting and a large bathroom. The easy access to coffee, coke, and ice added to the convenience. However, the initial room mix-up upon arrival was a downside, but the friendly and attentive service made up for it. The location was ideal, with plenty of nearby dining and shopping options within walking distance.
The hotel has undergone beautiful room renovations since my last visit, offering spacious and exceptionally clean accommodations with extremely comfortable beds. The in-room dining setup with a table and two chairs makes mealtime enjoyable.
The hotel offers a nice room size with convenient amenities like a coffee maker and a comfortable bed, perfect for an early morning flight. The cleanliness was on point, though.
The hotel offers spacious and super clean rooms, with outstanding new-clean facilities. The service was friendly, accommodating, and helpful, although a bit lacking in friendliness at times. The location was very convenient, particularly for late-night flight arrivals, in a safe area close to the airport. The dining experience was excellent with a diverse variety of breakfast items available. The facilities were well-maintained with nice poolside dining options.
Upon arrival, I found the King Bed Junior Suite to be more spacious than I had anticipated. The room had a slight odor issue, but overall, it was a comfortable stay. The service was exceptional, with staff being consistently friendly and accommodating. The location was convenient, albeit with some construction nearby. The dining options were good, though breakfast became monotonous after a few days.
