No signage out front or anyone to welcome you. It’s a hotel mixed with mostly residential so the hospitality isn’t there. When I finally found what I thought the check in counter was, there was a rep at the counter on her computer, attending no one physical there and I waited 5 mins to be greeted. No welcome or I’ve reached the right place. Once I told her I was there to check in, the room wasn’t ready and I asked if I can leave the bags and use amenities until ready and she said of course with no direction. Said once I bring the bags she will tell me everything and when I returned she was out to lunch. Didn’t tell us where the parking was or elevators nothing. The building is clearly catered to residents and not so much as a hotel. There were two lovely gentlemen to assist when I returned and were extremely nice and finally explained the amenities and area . The pool was not heated and tiles are extremely slippery and dangerous when walking on them wet.

Dear Management Team, I am writing to report an alarming and unacceptable incident during my stay at The Flow Hotel in Fort Lauderdale. Before arriving, I prepaid over $900 for my room. When I checked in, I prepaid an additional $400 to cover all incidentals and remaining balance. Despite this, I was denied access to my room and my personal belongings in a way that was humiliating, coercive, and completely unjustified. I am formally demanding a full refund of my stay, including resort fees, within 24 hours. In the middle of the day during the middle of my stay, after returning from a long run, I approached the front desk because I had left my key in my room. Instead of simply issuing a replacement, I was told that your team had forgotten to bill $113 in resort fees at check-in — an internal mistake I had no knowledge of. To clarify: I prepaid over $900 for the room and $400 at check-in. The only unpaid amount was the $113 your staff forgot to charge. I never refused payment, never intended not to pay, and never hesitated to pay for anything during my stay. It is unreasonable and insulting to assume that someone who prepaid over $1,300 would suddenly attempt to evade $113. I explained that I was sweaty and exhausted from running, my phone was at 2%, and my wallet, medication, hydration, and charger were inside my room. I asked to go upstairs briefly to shower and retrieve my belongings before returning immediately to settle the charge. This reasonable request was denied

We stayed in the 2 bedroom suite. The staff were fine, but the condition of the room was very dirty and requires both maintenance and a DEEP cleaning. I am shocked this hotel was rated well on Expedia. The hotel’s actual website only has a 3.9 rating out of 5. In my opinion, that was still a very generous rating. It is more like a 2.5.
