I really can't say enough good things about this place, Especially IF YOU'RE AN MPT student. These guys do a REALLY good job, and I feel my stay here represents the staff and owner BEST EFFORT at providing a on time on budget stay. Lots of details I enjoyed too many to mention. If I could give more stars I would.
Very responsive host was a great stay location is perfect rooms are cozy have everything you need bed in bedroom wasn’t the best it was big but mattress definitely needs to be replaced besides that awesome place and would definitely stay again
I absolutely loved it there! A true home away from home! So serene and comfortable beds throughout the units! The decor is superb and all one has to do is simply go to the grocery store and unpack and relax! You can literally walk to Whole Foods and the beach is 2.5 miles away! You will have the most caring hostess and hospitality staff and BlueBell is the sweetest cat. Thank you for making me feel like family.
best hotel i have ever stayed at. EVER. and I've been to my fair share of hotels and motels and i have never enjoyed my stay as much as i enjoyed it here. not only is the owner super friendly and gives her all to give you the best experience, but the rooms' interiors are so clean and just a absolutely stunning! if you're staying in the fort Lauderdale area i would very highly recommend booking a room here.
