Плохо
Pros:

Расположение

Cons:

Останавливаюсь в этом отеле с момента открытия. Пока отель был новый, все было отлично. Но с каждым годом отель стареет, но обслуживанием никто не занимается. В этот раз в номере не работал телевизор и, что самое ужасное, смыв унитаза. Вода просто не набиралась. Очень неприятный опыт.

Mixed Emotions
Pros:

The location was close to the ft Lauderdale Airport. Close to every where I needed to visit. Breakfast was complimentary it was okay. The coffee was my favorite part. The beds were comfortable and cozy.

Cons:

The Staff were unknowlegeable about a lot of things. Upon check in I requested my packages that were shipped there and was told it wasn't there even after checking my Amazon account and it said it was delivered. The packages were sitting right there. (Litterally looking at me) I was forced to bring them on the plane with me when I had plans of shipping them. The TV in the room didn't work. We asked the Front desk lady how to get it working, she answered with sarcasm ( the remote) Like OH I'm that dumb not to use the remote ( Shout out to the maintenence guy He's the best) the rest of the Front desk crew just don't show any level of professionalism. I doubt I will stay here again.

Pros:

Great place for a one or 2 night stay. Very clean. Dove toiletry products. They have wash cloths!!! Hot breakfast. Coffee, tea available 24 hours. They have Shuttle service to the airport. I was checking out on a cruise embarkation day and the receptionist was able to get me on a shuttle to the cruise terminal with other people. That was so nice. The hotel doesn't have regular shuttle to the cruise terminal The shuttle cost was average. The staff were friendly and seemed happy to answer questions.

Cons:

The free shuttle only makes 4 trips to and from the airport. My plane landed outside of the shuttle time frame. But there are taxis and ride shares waiting in line to be hired at the airport.
Also the location is not good if you don't have a car. Not walkable to restaurants or stores.But ride share readily available.
