The room was cleaned for the most part aside from the minor stains in the tub. The only issue would be that no matter what we turned the air conditioner on, it was extremely hot.. especially at night. The room stayed on 71, even if we turned the ac unit to 64. Both nights my sister and I woke up drenched in sweat…this wasn’t just a regular night sweat…our clothes were wet as if some liquid was poured on us. This was the extent of how hot the room was. Otherwise it was a decent experience.

Air conditioning was a lil slow to cool down the room, but overall great stay. Beds/pillows were comfortable. Staff was friendly, although they’re serious about not letting you into breakfast without your ticket (which I left in our room as we were checking out). Dove shower products were a nice touch. Close distance to shopping center and the airport and cruise terminal and free shuttle. Would recommend. They also stowed our bags while we waited for room.

Breakfast is over at 9:30am. They start packing up about 15 minutes before 9:30am. Which is one of the reasons why I booked at this hotel, for the free breakfast.

I’ve stayed in this hotel before ! This is our go to hotel when we go on and return from a cruise . It’s always clean and they have transportation to and from the ports & airport . My only complaint this time was the Creaky bed every time you moved in room 627 . That’s the first time that ever happened so still an overall great hotel ! I will return when I’m in Fort Lauderdale

It is a average hotel with the unfriendly, unprofessional staff:
1. Customers were waiting a long time for checking out while a only hotel clerk at reception counter was busy talking on phone.
2. I was refused to have a final statement printout because the clerk said it is Cheap Ticket (third party) responsible, even though hotel had asked me to provide credit card for depositing when checking in.

WORST RECEPTIONISTS AND HOUSEKEEPERS. Housekeeper forced me to tip her. Manager was very rude. They lock the front doors even during the day and I couldn't get into the hotel. Keys never work. Towels were overused, torn, and pinkish. Area is horrible full of homeless people. I didn't feel safe or clean at this hotel. Find another hotel in a better area. The staff doesn't care for the guests.

Secure with the parking garage gate.

When it comes to the pool everyone loved how clean it was and staff was informative while they were cleaning it one of the days we were there which was awesome to see!

The whole family loved the continental breakfast and the staff helped my kids several times when they were making pancakes!

All in all highly recommend!

Due to the flight delay, we got the hotel at 2am, the main entrance was locked. I called, there was no answer at the beginning. Finally someone answered the phone, and asked to press a button to open the door. But there was no button anywhere to be found. The stuff was rude and inpatient. I realized I might be at the wrong door. I found a door at the parking garage which can be opened by pressing a button. It was not good experience at all

Breakfast was fresh. I just didn’t have enough variety. It was no bacon other than that. It was excellent. The airport shuttle has another story I don’t know whether it was just a bad day or they was busy, but I think it just took too long for them to pick me up other than that. The driver was excellent and a room was clean spacious and I really like the bathroom and the shower.

You do have to request the airport shuttle. I had a rental car so this didn't bother me so much but it's good to know. Breakfast options were okay. Not the best selection I've ever seen for a continental breakfast, but enough options to fill the belly. My only negative experience really was the parking garage is kind of confusing to find & I accidentally turned into the law firm parking lot next door & when I tried to get out of that lot, there was a weird guy that seemed like he was trying to thumb a ride or something. I kept driving & was able to navigate out of that lot & find the hotel parking which is sort of behind the hotel. But, the guy from before followed me to the hotel parking garage. As a solo female traveler arriving at night that definitely made me feel a bit uncomfortable. I ended up calling my family to stay on the phone with them until I made it into the hotel. While the actual parking itself is located upstairs behind locked gate, you do have to park on the first floor initially to check in at the lobby then back out to your car to move it upstairs, which definitely felt a bit uncomfortable with this man lurking there trying to get my attention. It almost feels like you're in a bad area of the town which is disappointing bc a mile down the road is a bunch of shopping/restaurants & hotels that I might considering staying at in the future because it felt safer. But overall, everyone I interacted with at the hotel, both staff and guests, were pretty nice.

Staff was incredibly kind and considerate, especially housekeeping! Room was really clean. Breakfast was pretty standard hotel food but still pretty good. Random nitpicking things: The towels seemed kind of rough, and my TV would intermittently turn off and I would lose connection. Other than that it was an overall good place to stay!

This was the LOUDEST hotel with the THINNEST walls and floors I've ever stayed in. It sounded like the people above us were sliding furniture and dropping things on the floor throughout the entire night, and there was some unidentifiable vibrating/whirring throughout the night that sounded like the elevator working, but we were nowhere near the elevator. Additionally, the air conditioning in our room only worked if the fan was set to High, which caused something in the unit to rattle horribly (again, loudest hotel ever). When we set the unit to Low or Auto, it wouldn't turn on at all. We finally slept with no AC at all. When I called the front desk, their only solution was for us to let someone come into our room (at 9:30 at night when our kids were already dressed for bed) to look at it. When I asked if there was another room we could move to, I was told they only had a room with a king bed (there were four of us). I called back and asked if there were two rooms we could split and move into, and I was told I could not be helped because I refused to let someone come into the room to look at the AC unit. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, I was told they would be available in the morning. I asked how that would help us sleep tonight, and the front desk clerk said, "So you can get a discount." This response made it clear they thought I was just trying to get a discount (I was not), and they had no interest in actually helping me solve the problem.
