Great place for the price! Quick and great front desk service! The kitchen has cups, utensils, plates with a nice size fridge, microwave, dish washer and stove top. The bathroom is extremely well equipped with lots of towels PLUS 4 beach towels. There’s a daily $10 parking fee, but anywhere surrounding this area, the parking is at least $25 an hour! They have a .25 washer and dryer. The only downside is that you have to walk about a block and half to get to the beach.

Friendly and helpful staff. Clear communication. Clean room and neighborhood. Nearby free parking. Onsite laundry machine and dryer use takes $10. No water provided but there is free ice.

I booked the room last minute and they gave me early check in 🙌🏾 I was very appreciative of that because I was exhausted.. the room was clean and spacious. The strip and beach are literally around the corner. I walked to Fat Tuesday, had a shrimp Alfredo dinner on the strip across from the beach then walked back to the room and relaxed. I would stay here again!

Recently visited Fort Lauderdale on a family vacation and enjoyed our stay here. We had a 2 bedroom suite in the traditional building. It had 1 king bed, 2 queens and a sofa bed as well which was perfect for our family of 5. Everything was clean and in perfect working order. The staff was friendly and happy to provide extra towels and bedding when needed. The location was great too, in walking distance to the beach and restaurants, but also set back enough to enjoy some quiet time at night. I would definitely stay here again in the future and hope to do so. Thank you ⭐
