    . The room was horrid! It had mold, things broken, paint peeling, a deformed mattress on the bed, no light working except in the bathroom, etc. We just half-closed our eyes to it all and went to bed. The condition of that room should have disqualified the motel from being in business. I think people who wrote good reviews of this motel were blind or else drugged when they wrote them.

    This is an old hotel tucked in amongst all the extremely nice hotels along the main beach road. It does the job. All we needed was a place to crash for the night. Nothing special. Would we stay here again? Yes.

    Literally nothing about this stay was positive. I recieved multiple messaged from Expedia asking me to submit my license and it wouldn't work. No one was available when we arrived and the woman gave us a key pad code on arrival. The room was a large open window to the pool area and I was honestly concerned for our safety. I am requesting a refund from expedia. DON'T DO IT.

    We were allocated 2 poolside rooms, 5 and 9 ?. Both were in need of at upgrade, the rooms had full lenght window looking out to pool giving no privacy, the doors had combination locks which were temperamental and we felt were not secure. Safety was a big concern. The bedding was well used, especially the pillows, one room had a punch hole in the headboard, beds were far below average, shower was old and worn out, hairs found in one of the beds. We did not stay and found accommodation elsewhere. I felt the website and photos very misleading. No one was at reception when we arrived, nice lady showed us to the rooms but motel definitely not worth the money they wanted

    Our flight was delayed several hours. There is not a real person there to answer calls and no one at the front desk. We couldn't check into our room because the policy is to email the property with your ID for a code to check in but no email was ever provided. We had to find accommodations elsewhere and were still charged. Horrible management.

No one was available in the office when I arrived or left. Room was ok but nothing special. I would not recommend it for more than a cheap stay overnight.

    Room was very dirty (you could see the room had never been cleaned more than a sweep/mop), no fence around pool and no locks on door that are child proof (just a lock on the keypad thing which is very easy to open, but no additional locks higher up on the door for example), no room service, very tight bathroom. Overall it’s a very cheap place and it shows. The beds are uncomfortable. You do get what you pay for… but I wouldn’t stay here again. Especially because I was worried that my toddler would get out and fall in the pool right outside our door.

    No staff at check in so we had to find another hotel. We phoned their number multiple times over 2 hours and got no answer to our calls or voicemails. There is no security at this hotel and anyone can walk into the hotel buildings and corridors and even use the pool. Place should be shut down!

    Keep in mind this is a budget hotel, no frills. The room was plain, small bathroom, decent condition. Unfortunately there was no heat, only cooling. Being in Florida this is not generally a problem, but I went on the coldest weekend, lows in 30s and 40s, and the room was very cold in the morning. It was okay as I just needed a place to sleep. I arrived early and no one was at the office until 3pm wheich is check-in time.. the staff was nice.

    It wasn’t poor-but it wasn’t great either. Positives: Totally safe neighborhood. Staff on site most of the time. Easy access to the beach. It was clean. Kerug of coffee, microwave and fridge. Negatives: You get what you pay for. Small bed. Outdated. Basic bathroom. Far from Las Olas. Felt a little questionable but we came home with no bugs and a good store to tell.

    Positives: - Beach access crossing the street - A couple of restaurants/bars several hotels down across the street and about 1/2 mile walk for an outdoor strip mall with a bit more variety. -Front Desk lady very sweet and helpful. - Has a pool. Cons - Loud AC where I could barely hear the TV. - The Toilet handle barely flushed and had to lift the lid to reset the toilet. Yuck! - No dresser, alarm clock, phone for front desk, desk. Pretty bare. - The Bed was almost like a cot. - There was a constant puddle by the AC, it seems water was dropping from the unit.. Bottom line, it is a shabby unit for sure. But if your there to hit the beach budget style, not a bad deal at all.

    Th very impersonal service you get a text with a code for your door. You will not see any staff there. The pool is broken. The water is yellow only saving Grace. Is there a real nice boutique hotel across the street called Sun resort with a great little breakfast lunch bar right on the beach. honestly for a few dollars more I would stay there.

    The property was a average hotel- taken over by new management 3 years ago. It has a nice sundeck and it is smoking outside friendly.

    We had such a great time here. Yes, it is small and not "up to date" but it was so cute and comfortable. It was right across from the beach - cute little restaurant across the street and we even walked to one about .5 mile away. The service was AMAZING - it was a great price for our stay for the weekend. The only problem we had was we could not get out of the parking lot in the morning it was really tight.

    They said they couldn't help me ordering a taxi, so I had to do that. Then the taxi didn't come and I was completely panicking. One of the staff helped me which was nice. I did get to my ship eventually but was frantic. Also, not their fault but there was a marathon outside their hotel that morning, which complicated everything. On the whole, very stressful but not entirely their fault.

    The property is old . the room is basic, not much furniture and it is poor. The area outside the property is upscale and the beach close. The staff is not there all the time.

    The room was so small two people could barely move. It had one electric receptacle for the TV, microwave, refrigerator, coffee pot, and chargers for our phones and computer. We had to unplug the refrigerator to use something else, it was like Green Acres TV show. It was a great location but the price was four times what it was worth. I would advise, stay any where but here. They have no one in the office after about 6 pm. I talked to others there and they had no hot water buyt my room did.

    I honestly didn’t stay for the time that I booked the room for. I arrived a little after 4pm, no one was inside the office. I had help from a nice lady sitting poolside. The room didn’t meet my expectations or standards at all. The bedsheets had crumbs and dirt on it. I showered, changed, left & went to a concert. Came back, took my bags to my car and left. Came back to my place in Homestead. I just accepted the loss and I know better the next time. The only positive thing about the hotel for me is that it’s directly across the street from the beach. But, I was too disappointed to enjoy that.

    I would not recommend. I booked for one night only. In the room I found a huge roach lying on its back on the floor near one of the beds. I did not sleep at all because I feared I would see another roach. The room was entirely too small. The bathroom was awful. There was nothing in the room (no telephone in the room in case of an emergency, no dresser, no closet, no bottle of water, no coffee). There were only a couple electrical wall outlets. The face cloths need replacing. I refused to use the shower. /The toilet did not flush well. There was a dirty toilet plunger next to the toilet and also a messy container with something in it that appeared to be old white paint and a stiff paint brush. There was a nasty looking sink stopper sitting on the sink and nothing covered the sink drain hole where the stopper should have been. I am not accustomed to rooms like that. This was an awful experience for me.

    We arrived late Friday night, i had reserved a room with 2 double beds to only have 1 bed. The next morning they did switch out room. The pool was extremely low in water, there never seemed to be a home in the office. The office did sell ice but there was no where to store the bag of ice in your room. We had no hot water in our room the whole weekend. On the bright side we were less than a block from the beach which was nice and quiet. Sadly, there were no stores or restaurants sold so we had to Uber everywhere

    This hotel was such an amazing experience! It's in such a great location the beach entrance is literally across the street it's a prime location for a loweky swim or the Beach strip is a 10 minute car ride if you want a crowd. They are amazingly staffed great customer service my favorite was the Irish man make sure to have a conversation with him! The hotel provides some basics such as towels, sun cooling gel, shampoo, a microwave, a small fridge, and a fire stick TV. The terrace space is great I love spending time there. Overall such an amazing stay I really enjoyed my time and recommend it!

    This property had received high ratings so was VERY disappointed to check in and find it subpar. No bureau in room, no free ice, shower difficult to turn on (couldn't figure it out) needed a plunger that staff had difficulty finding and it was half broken, light bulb missing, toilet roller missing, Room was shabby. Unfortunately we had cold weather so were not able to use the pool, sit outside or go to the beach. I would give them 1.5 stars. Good TV and check in staff very pleasant.

    The staff was so friendly and helpful but they weren’t always around. They stored our luggage free of charge for the day after check out and our room was clean. But the motel itself was run down, the pool wasn’t heated so in December it was cold. The beds were too soft, but the sheets were clean. The AC was loud but it did work ok though our window and room filled with a lot of condensation. The pod coffee maker didn’t work, the fridge was super noisy and didn’t work well. We stayed 2 nights and housekeeping was friendly but never actually cleaned our room, she supplied us fresh towels when requested. The TV remote didn’t work for scrolling to the right which made watching difficult and the beds were sideways to the tv so it was hard to view. Toiletries were supplied and the bathroom was clean. The other guests were out or walking through the courtyard late into the night, this motel attracts a rowdy bunch. It has an ok upper patio with bbq’s but we didn’t use those.

    I was terribly disappointed. I read many reviews that were positive but did not accurately reflect my experience. Check in was smooth, staff very pleasant. Grounds not nice at all. Pool area table was dirty with an ashtray that hadn't been cleaned out since about 1980. Fence looked like it was about to fall over. Pool clean but cold. Outside room door #106 looked like it had been broken into a few times. Inside the room sparse at best. Pillow cases and spread looked old, worn, dirty. The smell of bleach overwhelming and made my eyes burn. Had I not been so tired that alone made me want to leave. Bathroom had only towels and half a roll of toilet paper. Not even a bar of soap although she brought me some right away when I called. I had dropped something that went under the bed and there was an old water bottle under it. Sink didn’t look clean. I didn’t even try the shower. It didn’t look good either. No outlets in bathroom. The best thing I can say about the room is I didn’t see any bugs. I would not recommend this place. I don’t need a 5 star hotel but this was bad. Spend your money elsewhere.

    If you're looking for for huge and/or fancy then look elsewhere. If you're looking for a clean room in a great location at a great price with an amazing staff to take care of you then definitely stay here!!!!! Pool was chilly but it didn't seem to bother our kids at all. 2 minute walk to the beach and good food choices within 5 minute walk.

    this is a great spot to stay. vintage feel, very clean, friendly staff, and location across from beach is ideal, ofcourse. it’s due for a little updating, but that added to the “vintage florida” vibe. even though the building is older, newer furniture and tile floors meant there was zero off odors in the rooms. this is always my husbands first measure of hotel quality. both roomssmelled amazing and we’re not smoky or stale smelling at all. also, i was concerned about potential party noise on a saturday night ( because we came with our young kids), but thankfully we didn’t hear a peep from any neighboring rooms, so we must have hit a good weekend. more than satisfactory, if your not looking for something glamorous.
