The good things, it is really close to the airport and the manager was very nice. We came in at the happy hour and got a free drink. What else? The room was quite damaged and dirty. There was long hairs in the shower and drops did come out of the shower all night, we could not fix it. So,... More

I just needed a basic place to sleep so i could catch an early flight the next morning and this was the most affordable motel in Fort Lauderdale via hotels.com. I expected it to be.. well.. average. What i discovered was a small, independent, American-owned motel that had tons of charm and whose owners obviously cared a great deal about... More

My wife booked this motel based upon "value". There were three couples staying here in preparation for going on a "once in a life time" cruise. The rooms were hot, the AC didn't cool, we had to clean off the AC filters of about 1/2 inch of dirt, the carpet was dirty, the bathtub and showers were worse than the... More

Stayed for just one night, before flying out the next day. Found hotel from Hotels.com and although was a bit skeptical decided to try it. The location is fine but the hotel itself is easy to miss, I drove right past it. Check-in was a snap and the owner was very friendly. Got to the room and was surprised at... More

I travel a lot and never had run across this hotel on Hotels.com before. Gave it a shot and it was just really, really nice. Clean room, great price, the staff are over-the-top in friendliness and service. More

This is a great place to stay for one night or if you need to be near the airport. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. When you check in, they give you a free drink including beer. There is free breakfast and free internet service. The rooms are a little small and the pull out couch in our room... More

If you want 5-star Hilton, stay away! If you want an old-fashioned, down-home American motel, with clean rooms, very friendly and helpful staff, right there in downtown Fort Lauderdale, close to the airport and Port Everglades, you won't find better value than this. If you want glitz and glam and flunkies, you won't find it here. If you want nice... More

Inexpensive motel, with that being said its not the best quality but it is okay. Staff is very friendly, cable tv, microwave, small fridge, coffee maker. Let us check in at 11am. Location isn't great because too far to walk to main attractions (mall, restaurants, etc). More

Got this hotel through Hot Wire and the price was not that cheap. We were hoping for a decent stay since the reviews here were mostly positive. Well, it turned out to be our worst motel experience ever. We are world travelers and have been traveling frequently, and I can honestly say that this one was absolutely the worst. I... More
