“During my stay, the room smelled like cigarette smoke and the cleanliness could have been better. The staff were okay, but improving the cleaning and keeping the area smoke-free would make the experience much better.

Bathrooms are old, deteriorated and there was no shower curtain. Floors were filthy and we noticed immediately when my daughter took off shoes and white socks were black within minutes. Outside is disgusting and staff promised to bring a shower curtain but never came. Breakfast is a scam! Poorly managed and seems like a lot of homeless people lives there.

We had the queen studio. It was in the rear so less traffic and disturbances . So that was good. Full size refrigerator was nice and 2 burner stove . We saved a lot just by eating there. And a full weeks supplyStraight shot to Fort Lauderdale By the Sea Beach. The staff were nice and helpful. It had dirty floors but that's about it.

The room was disgusting and dirty, and they had no towels. There was very rarely anybody at the front counter and the telephone didn’t work. None of the things were plugged in, and when we went to plug-in, the lamp beside the bed outlet was burnt, and the plug-in cord was discussing there was something all over it. The shower curtain rod was broken. There was areas that there was holes in the wall. The microwave was filthy. The drawers and the kitchen were filthy. The microwave felt like it was gonna fall off the counter that it was drill to. It felt very unsafe you could tell that there was a lot of people living there, but even so there was just a very uneasy feeling. There was garbage underneath the bed and when my husband went to the front counter and had to wait for a half an hour for anybody to even show up to help him, he was talking to other people, and they had to literally clean their own rooms.

The property is pretty banged up. The door to our room didn't feel secure since it would still open just a bit before the bolt would catch. The cabinet doors were damaged and worn.

I know there's not much the staff could do, but there were other guests openly smoking pot in front of their rooms, making it impossible to prevent it from drifting into ours. I don't mind people smoking, I just don't want to have to smell it.

On the positive side, the AC worked well, and the bathroom was clean.

#1 - we were given a room that was occupied and had to get a new one.
#2 - very late at night, a man was asking us questions and followed us into the lobby area.
#3 - worn/stained tub, leaky faucet, worn/scratches all over
#4 - someone knocked on our door and said the front desk gave him our room.
#5 - unclean room, dirty towels that had hair on them
#6 didn’t feel safe, a lot of people wandering around the property at all hours. we switched to a different hotel

I was very disappointed with my stay. The room was not as clean as expected and had a strong, unpleasant odor that made the environment uncomfortable. It did not feel properly maintained or prepared for guests.
The bathroom was in poor condition, with a significant amount of rust. In addition, the bathtub and sink did not drain properly, causing water to accumulate. The window was also covered with mold, which made the room feel unhealthy and poorly cared for.
The overall atmosphere around the property also felt strange and somewhat unsafe due to the unusual people in the surrounding area.
Overall, the experience did not meet my expectations in terms of cleanliness, comfort, and safety.I would not choose to stay here again and hope management improves the cleaning standards, maintenance, and overall environment for future guests.

Toilet was not connected to floor. The floor was chipping up in the bathroom. Only one small thing is shampoo as a toiletry. No toilet paper holder. All counters were stained. Area did not feel safe.

While the staff was quite friendly, overall, the accommodations were less than ideal. We chose the property for the kitchen, but there were no kitchen supplies upon arrival. I asked the front desk for some, as I discovered that was process, and I was given some…but simply two plates, two spoons, two cups, one plastic spoon, a two pots. Couldn’t do much with that and bought some plastic forks. The toilet wasn’t attached well to the floor and was quite wobbly. One of the lights was missing a bulb, things were a bit dirty, and we had roaches running about. There was also frequent occurrences of marijuana smoke wafting into the room, despite the signs outside the building that smoking marijuana was prohibited. There was also lots of trash around the grounds. I know some things are out of your control, but there is room for improvement.

This stay was a nightmare. I felt extremely uncomfortable because the place was dirty and disgusting. The bathroom was filthy, with black spots all over, and the doors did not close properly. The microwave was also dirty, with food residue left inside.
It is unacceptable that I had to pay to sleep in such unsanitary conditions. I took multiple photos to document everything. This place deserves a zero-star rating.

Room dirty, very loud, windows don't close, paint of the walls was peeling of, the window curtain damaged and not closing, bulb missing on the night stand, the bath top was more black than white , the support of the bathroom tissue broken and part missing, very old ac unit.
Question, is nobody there to check?
Next day we cancelled our stay, and we got a refund for the rest of the booked days.
My suggestion, fix the place before renting it out.

We tried again the next day and were once again told the room would be cleaned. It was not. The lock on the door was also broken and fire alarm removed.

Travelling to a strange country - ensuring that accommodations are booked in advance only to be turned away & then no assistance with trying to reach expedia. we drove all the way to Miami just trying to find somewhere to stay - we had to resort to sleeping in our van for the night. very discouraging and disappointing :-( will NEVER book with this brand

This was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had.
•Dirty Room & Bathroom: The bathtub and tiles were filthy, covered in stains and grime. The sink and counters in the kitchen area were dirty with old food residue, and even the fridge had grime on top. It’s obvious housekeeping and maintenance are not a priority here.
•Room Issues: The remote didn’t even have batteries, and when I asked at the front desk, they didn’t have any to provide. The door to the room also didn’t close properly, which felt unsafe.
•Unsafe Environment: The property felt more like a hangout spot than a hotel. There were groups of people sitting outside in lawn chairs, smoking and talking loudly. I even had to squeeze past people in the hallway just to get into my room, which was very uncomfortable.
•Overall: The place felt dirty, unsafe, and poorly managed. Definitely not worth the money, and I would never stay here again.

If you value cleanliness, safety, and basic hospitality, stay far away from this place.
