Wort motel ever the pictures are misleading

The room has cigarette burns in comforter and sheets. The front desk guy was rude and threatened to tear up my paperwork and make me find another hotel because i asked him about the $100 fee for incidentals. People were outside of my door smoking week. The walls are thin i could hear every wors from the neighbors partying all night when i signed a form saying no loud noise after 9pm the phone in the room doesn't work. I had ro google the hotel and report the loud noise at 2am and 3 am

This appears to be an older building that has had the rooms updated. The rooms looked nice. They let us check in about 4 hours early for a small fee. There is no elevator to the upper floor. We did not have any hot water in the shower. There was an old bar of soap in the shower and trash in the bathroom can.

The very best place to avoid in Ft. Lauderdale!

Perfect location to have a skid-row experience. My quarters couldn't have passed inspection by the building department. No hot water, faucet and shower handles not secured and did not turn on the water without a great deal of struggle amd manipulation. This place is a joke and I would encourage everyone to steer clear.

We got checked in 2 hours later than check-in time because the cleaning crew was late. They offered a late check-out for compensation that we didn’t need because we had a flight to catch in the morning. You will also have an additional fee to pay when you get there of about 25 USD.

The owner of this property does not care for their investment or guests. The room had clearly not been cleaned for some time. The place was NASTY and definitely NOT VALUE FOR MONEY!
