Always enjoy staying at this hotel because of the friendly people working here (front desk, bar, dining and housekeeping all) The bar and the food options are REALLY good I have stayed here a dozen times and the staff has always made it an enjoyable experience
As a professional traveler, I would appreciate better options to charge my menagerie of electronic devices while in my room There is only one plug in the lamp between the beds and that plug would no support my charger There were no options to use a USB without a charger Had to put all of my devices across the room from the comfy corner chair and the bedsThe fitness room is small but has decent amount of equipment As people try to stay healthy on the road, I encourage the management to give the fitness room attention and keep things working properly so the customers can be safe and fit Only 1 of the 3 treadmills worked properlyThese rooms get a lot of use from the large amount of customers, so some of the amenities are getting a little worn down While the facilities will benefit some minor updating and maintenance, the management seems to have hired some of the nicest people in the industryLook forward to staying with you in the near future
Trish Boccuti
Nice hotel but definitely a little worn The staff was great – very friendly But the room had a sight musty smell and just looked a little old
The location was great – very easy to get to the airport, cruise terminal, and the beachThe food at the lobby bar was also really good!
Luis Pena
Remember to use ʜoᴛᴇʟʙᴏʟʟʏᴄᴏm when booking a stay They compare countless hotel sites and typically will have rates a lot cheaper compared to others! Thank me later on! This resort is one of my favorites in this area
I’ve been coming here for a long time If you decide to stay here you for sure won’t regret itStayed here night before our celebrity cruise left from port Everglades about half mile away! Very convenient, lots of shops and eateries close by, rooms were comfy, quiet and meticulous

Beautiful hotel!Exceptional breakfastHere is why I gave one star…Very poor customer service and communication in regards to housekeeping protocols
My husband and I stated the concerns to the front desk and there was no accomdation to our check out besides an apologyThe temperature in the room was not set to what was requested during bookingHousekeeping protocols were not communicated verbally or in an email during bookingWe were not made aware about a 24 hour request for housekeeping They presented us with a paper at check out… which in my opinion should be emailed or posted in the ACTUAL ROOM I have been to several other hotels during the pandemic and they have it posted in the room or communicated it to us during check in I think this is something that should be on the door or they have some type of communication to the guests to request the cleaning No where in this hotel room did I see a posting I did see a sign in the bathroom that if you left your towels on the floor they would be replace… so I assumed that housekeeping was a regular routine in this placeHow can someone place a request for a 24 hour housekeeping the room when we didn’t even check in 24 hours within when the clean up was needed????I was in town came to this hotel for a surgery I was having and returned to a hotel room that was not cleaned When I called the front desk there was music from the lounge blasting and the employee could barely hear me All she did was send two towelsI needed to be in a clean environment and my health was at riskUnfortunately I will not be recommending this place to my family and friends I am highly unsatisfied I did not get my moneys worth

Perfect location for staying and shopping at the Sawgrass Mills mall It’s actually located in the parking lot of the mall, so parking is available and free Valet parking is available tooThe surrounding areas are well litThe furniture is clean and comfortable and the design is modern with clean lines and no clutter Large spacious bathrooms and a shower stall with sufficient elbow roomThere’s water and coffee available in the rooms; a snack shop and a bar in the lobby and a good buffet breakfast is available at minimal cost The restaurant seating area is spacious and clean and well attendedOf course, the many restaurants both inside and on the outside of the mall area are all available for you to enjoy dinnerNear to the hotel is a lovely outdoor walk area alongside the shops for enjoying an after dinner walk in a beautiful settingI would definitely stay here againA bit pricey but still affordable
Chris Dodorico
Gorgeous new modern property at Sawgrass Mills The design is sleek with beautiful finishes Check-in was very swift and polite
Room is nicely appointed The thermostat is a bit challenging – the room was 81 when we arrived but finally figured how to put it on Called maintenance and a very friendly gentleman arrived immediately to help Problem is the thermostat turns back off overnight so the room warmed again Rooftop bar is great with nice views and fun, calm vibe Overall construction is kinda cheap and you can hear a lot of noises on the floor Will definitely stay again!

This was a great hotel stay! We really enjoyed the beautiful 2 Queen suite which was very spacious It had huge TVs which was great for watching the NFL playoff games We enjoyed the rooftop bar and pool area, as we were here to celebrate a birthday
The front desk team were very accommodating especially Allen and Terrell Although we did not use valet service, the valet team very polite and engaging in conversation especially Rowan We’ll definitely be back!!
Sherray Utley
The whole experience was terrible I checked out early and was unable to even complete my stay there because the experience was just that horrible The hotel staff were not hospitable and not what I am accustomed to experiencing from the Marriott brand
The room smelled bad Our concerns about the smell were not adequately addressed The first night they stated they could only clean the room but they were unable to move us to a comparable room since they were at capacity for the night The next day the hotel staff said that they would need to do an assessment of the room before moving Ridiculous! They then say they still are unable to move us and offered to clean the room again, which I was not interested in then having to stay in the same room where they are spraying with tons of cleaning products, also while our luggage is still in the room The manager followed up later on that day Finally, the manager told us that they would move us to another room on the same floor The manager stated she would leave a note with the front desk staff However, the communication between the managers and the front staff was horrible Once we were packed and were ready to move to the different room the front desk staff acted as if they had no idea what we were referring to They said they had no comparable rooms available I asked to speak with the manager and they advised they already left for the night Eventually, they “magically” found us a comparable room, but it wasn’t on the same floor as they promised Actually, the new room was now on the lower third level close to the highway, where we can hear the highway traffic all night long I imagine this wouldn’t have been an issue if the hotel had double pane windows The next morning we speak to the manager of the hotel and he is condescending, ignores our concern, and makes tons of excuses instead of apologizing for the many inconveniences we experienced during our stay After that encounter, I checked out early I moved to a full service Marriott hotel in the area And the experience was night and day I received much better treatment after moving to another hotel This Courtyard location needs to ensure they are adequately cleaning their rooms, especially if they are a pet friendly hotel But most of all, they need to learn to treat their customers with respect As a Marriott Gold elite member I’ve never experienced this type of treatment and horrible customer service I would never recommend staying at this hotel
Eric Gotham
This has been a pleasant surprise For the price, I was expecting something a little more aged but it looks brand new Even though its new, the staff really knows what they’re doing – all very pleasant, busy, kind, etc
Rooms are clean and spacious with large windows and televisions Modern lighting controls and plenty of charging ports The lobby is contemporary, yet inviting It has a convenient little “store” for snacks and drinks The restaurant, coffee shop and bar on the lobby level are OK – kinda the only thing that’s missed the mark Dinner is far better than breakfast The food portions are small and quality is so so (it’s a hotel, I get it) The real bummer is they say it’s not part of the hotel, so you cannot charge your room for meals or drinks Same with the roof top bar

This place is nicely located off the main street It is modern and the amenities are great to have The check process was effortless that it seems unreal, the facility is very clean and there is a pleasant fragrance that welcomes you as the automatic door opens
The staffs are hospitable and polite, always greeting and acknowledging you I liked the diversity of the staffs I loved the room, especially the shower Checking out was as easy as checking in, unfortunately all great experience has to come to an end I look forward to my next stay

This had to be the WORST Marriott I have ever had the misfortune to stay atFirst, when I arrived they had no re ord of my reservation even though I showed it to them through my email Then they realized they canceled it and had to give me another room
Of course it was right next door to the elevator and the a/c was stuck on 75 I called the front desk and they sent two repairmen to my room and one said ” oh that’s they way it works If I can’t change it you need to get another room” Why say you can change it but tell me first thats the way it works???The next day I was finally able to get a room in the afternoon with a balcony which is what I requested Unfortunately I made the mistake of leaving 2 of my own pillows along with my necklace on the other room I called the front desk and of course they didn’t find it or have anything turned in The necklace I could see but pillows???My main issue with this courtyard was their lack of empathy and their poor customer service Pretty much everyone I spoke to seemed preoccupied with something else and showed no concern whatsoever I chose this courtyard over my usual one in plantation just to save $20 and it was DEFINITELY NOT WORTH IT I would suggest you not visit this one until they get better management and start to hold their staff more accountable for how they treat their customers

My room was not cleaned, the carpet not vacuum I found broken glasses on the carpet in the room Back of the toilet seat had poop stains
I asked to changed the linen All they did was putting them in the room for me to changed myself The crazy thing is when I go to the front desk and asked if they could clean my room vacuum and cleaned the toilet It seem the front desk right away see me as someone making life difficult Even though I took pictures of the stains and glasses on the floor It seem no one checked if what I was saying was even true I spent two weeks at that place and it was not clean I had to be the one asking for new blanket and i did my bed Toilet was filthy and smell like someone was smoking cannabis in it I actually took pictures of the room if anyone want to see or think I am just complaining Trust me I’m nice in my review the customer service was the worst I have ever had in any hotel I ever been I met only one lady that seems to care at the front desk after I showed her picture of the room She was nice and stated she was the front desk manager But even though she assured me the room would be cleaned By the time I came back at night the room was not done or vacuum However the day after the toilet stains was finally wiped away That was before my last day staying at the hotel I would not suggest for anyone to stay at this place However I did feel it was a safe place to stay
Jimmy Puccio
The Good: The staff was very courteous, offered free bottled water, and the room was clean/spacious, especially at the given price point The fact that they also offer a free parking garage for guests to use is a huge bonus The bed was also very comfortable, with nice (useful) pillows
The not so good: I deducted 1 star because the rooms are in desperate need of a professional remodel The current state of the rooms just looks like 30-40 years of quick remodel jobs (thick, caked on paint, old wall plates for light switches and outlets, extremely loose wall outlets, etc) If you’re staying here for a night or two, you’re totally fine Anything more is your call
Alan Whittemore
Fast, friendly arrival/check in experience I was checked in by someone who appeared to be relatively new and learning, and he did a great job! He was being actively mentored/supervised by an experienced associate and they did a great job Did it take longer to check in? Well, based on my experience as a frequent traveler, I would say, yes it did probably take 30-45 seconds longer
I’ve experienced this before and I never mind seeing someone learning especially when they appear to want to learn Both the trainee and the trainer seemed to have a very customer-centric attitude and dispositionThe ladies working in the “Bonvoy Lounge” (I think that’s what its called) were awesome! So friendly and welcoming Their hospitality was great and it was obviously very realFitness center could be cleaned up a little (and restock the cleaning wipes for wiping down equipment) but it was nicely equipped and I am grateful for it

We have been here for three days so far and leaving tomorrow We have enjoyed staying here immensely Our room was so clean and we let housekeeping clean it each day
I like the fact you smell bleach in the bathroom It lets you know they actually clean it The staff here are always happy to help you except the maids They really aren’t socialable but that wasn’t anything to complain about The breakfast is very nice and very cleangood food as well This place went above and beyond my expectations We were in room 403
Savannah Sussman
I can’t give this hotel 5 stars for 2 reasons1) The water pressure in the showers 🚿 is far to weak2) There is no microwave in the rooms
I stay in same hotels, for weeks at a time, and a microwave is a definite plusThe staff in this hotel is EXEMPLARY!From the front desk to housekeeping to the person arranging 🥞 the breakfast 🥐 buffet, everyone is friendly, efficient and pleasantI’d rather drive the 30 miles to my location, than stay in a closer hotel😌
Leader1- LARRIO A. WALDEN (Captain)
Nice Friendly staff, clean room, good breakfast buffet
all you can eat But your car will get very dusty from all the construction going on next door And tree leafs falling on the windshield Otherwise, I like this property, will stay again and I do recommend this Holiday Inn Express & Suites However, they must stay steadfast, continuously striding in all categories to earn 5 Stars hotelNow, Breakfast dinning I rate 5 🌟 for cleanliness, food quality and quantity, temperature of the food and the good helpful attendant on duty therewho’s name is Trevor Very helpful and clean man

Hotel is old Bed was very uncomfortable Lumpy and too soft
Pillows were lumpy and so thin they offered no support AC wasn’t working well Room temperature was just below 80, even hallway was cooler This was one of the worst Hampton Inns I’ve stayed inStaff was friendly but poor room quality couldn’t be overcome I would not recommend
Morgan m
One of the best Hampton Inn I have stayed at Down on business, manager helped me with tweaking my last minute reservations Breakfast was better than quite a few other Hamptons I’ve stayed at
Every location will be different for sure, but cleanliness, accommodating, and flexibility wise they are doing it rightWill definitely stay here again next time I am in town

This is the 3rd time I returned to this hotel For the most part I am pleased to see the overall service standard remain with better staffing arrangement to handle the flux of visiting guests I am also very pleased with the housekeeping staff they were very helpful
The food at the restaurant is very good, and love the breakfast offeringThe only bummer I found was the availability of the bike rental given everyone was charged for the destination fee, there needs to be sufficient inventory
Lynnette Williams
Very nice hotel and stay Clean, fresh, great staff and amenities This hotel was located perfectly at the end of Las Olas Blvd near all the restaurants, bars and shops
Only a 5-7 min drive away from the beach It was so convenient staying here Has a nice bar lounge area and restaurant within the hotel Nice size rooms and balcony rooms has a nice view of area The price staying was definitely worth it for me Definitely will be our go-to stay hotel when visiting out here again Really felt luxurious during my birthday festivities Keep up the great work guys!! You are all appreciated!

The staff who are helpful are the only thing this place deserves a 1-star for Our recent first stay here for a few nights out of necessity to be near a certain location are what brought us here But it wasn’t clean
Human hair all over everything! Baseboards, floors, towels, bed, just everything and everywhere You’d think we had paid $50/night for that! This time, on our next visit, out of necessity once again, in looking for other options nearby, this place has the highest ratings so we unwillingly booked again Tonight, I’ve already moved rooms due to ants, disgusting floor turning my clean feet brown, broken privacy blind Staff quickly and pleasantly responded about the broken privacy blind and fixed it and I figured I’d just deal with the antsuntil one climbed on me in bed! Moving time! Again, very nice staff who don’t have much control My new room is so full of human hair that I could make a wig! Make your own decision but we won’t be staying here again Maybe Red Carpet Inn for much less isn’t so bad! It’s cleaner!
Adrianna Swanson
I booked this place for a one night kids free vacation for a concert my husband and I went to This is a very cool place – nice and creative lobby, everything was very clean, the rooms were very nice with little features I did not expect, and the staff were extremely nice and helpful The ONLY thing I can say that was not perfect was being woken up to an employee deep cleaning the carpets in the hallway in front of our room around 9am when we were anticipating sleeping in since we were kid free and out late; I think a good time to do that would have been after checkout time
Isabella Branca
I had an exceptional stay at this hotel, excellent customer service I didn’t arrive till 2:00 am got right into my room it was spotless well decorated and a very comfortable bed
The elevator had a little bit of an issue because you have to slide your room key to select the floor Breakfast was amazing a little pricey but well worth it and it’s not far from the airport which worked out perfect

Very nice hotel, close to many nice eating places Rooms are nice and cleaned well They will only come in and do a lite clean up and make beds after your 3rd night
Trash can is to be put outside your door to be emptied by 2pm It’s ok,but a little pricey per night We stayed 2 nights for $336 plus $100 deposit you get back Nice breakfast in morning I guess I just expected a little more for less
Christine Detres
Super clean rooms! Complementary breakfast was off the chain the most sweetest ,nicest staff I’ve ever come across from the cleaning crew to the kitchen staff Breakfast was so delicious and so much varieties to choose and pick from Egg, sausages bacon ,French toast, oatmeal ,bagels, toast, muffins, cereals ,orange juice, apple juice, milk ,coffee just delicious

AWFUL EXPERIENCEWe booked the King Bed room at the Las Olas B&B to ensure we get the most comfortable room If we are taking the time to write this review, it’s because we were very disappointed by the quality of the room and by the serviceFirst of, no breakfast was offered, even though the website clearly indicated it that it was included in the price
The place is called a Bed and Breakfast after all! Covid or not, they could think of another way to compensate for the situation, that’s what all other B&B and hotels are doingWe were also welcomed into a room smelling of must and humidity, evidently coming from the bathroom where we found mold Ventilation in the bathroom only worsened the smell and given its appearance, it clearly hadn’t been cleaned nor checked in agesThe big disappointment was also the King Bed (supposedly the best room they have) which was broken!! The springs at the bottom were completely messed up leaving a big whole at the bottom of aware mattress We have never encountered such a bad bed before, not even in lower grade hostels! The pillows were also old and not comfortableNot to mention that at our arrival, there were towels missing and no toilet paperwe had to call and wait for someone to come bring them to usWhat probably worsened the situation is that there was heavy rain when we were staying there which did not help with the humidity smell After two days, the smell in the room was no longer bearable We found ourselves having no other choice but to leave Las Olas B&B We explained the situation to the host and he promised he would refund the remaining 3 night we had booked (see email exchanges in photos)Three months later, despite numerous reminder emails, we still have not received the refund and we are no longer getting any responses to our emailsIn short, HORRIBLE rooms and TERRIBLE customer experience If you want to have a decent time, we do not recommend that you stay at Las Olas B&B

Dan was incredibly nice in trying to make my stay more comfortable but I was extremely dissatisfied with my experience here The building is very old, outdated and the walls are extremely thin I had trouble sleeping every night because of how loud all the neighbors were — the people staying above me consistently played music at 3 and 4 am
(Dan did ask them to keep it down and be more considerate) My room smelled of mildew and the bathroom smelled like a public restroom — I had to go out and buy candles to try to make it better I wish they could take some time to renovate the building and the rooms because it has a lot of potential to be cute I will not be staying here again

We lucked into a reservation here at the last minute for New Years Eve The accommodations were an excellent value for the money The guest house was easy to find and in a great location
Everybody was friendly, the facilities and pool were clean and well kept Not a place for rowdy kids or stuffy old folks Guests were mixed ages, genders, orientations and backgrounds, lending to a very “all-welcome” feeling

Kendra and Jonathan were ABSOLUTELY Wonderful A1 customer service is definitely what they providedThey explained every single detail in regards to the room, dining, parking, events being held at the hotel, local things to do and much more
The room was very nice It was clean, the towels were great quality compared to a lot of hotels I’ve stayed at recently, elevators were clean I also like the fact that there was a microwave on each floor to accommodate the guests that needed oneI will definitely stay at this property again in the futureMy opinion for the negative reviews I read, closed mouths don’t get fed A hotel should not receive a bad review because you didn’t speak up for them to address your issues with your stay while there There are a lot of staffing issues due to COVID and unfortunately the hotel industry is probably seeing a impact just like every other businessThanks again for wonderful stay away from home!
Aubrey Devine
I’ve been traveling to this area often for work and have had a hard time finding a decent hotel in the area This Renaissance met all of my expectations Clean, quick and friendly service, updated rooms, quiet and has a nice gym
See Hugo if you go to the restaurant, he’s fantastic!The beds here are SO comfortable I slept great every night I also liked that while they don’t have a microwave in the room, they have one for guests in the grab and go areaMy only wish is that they had coffee options before 7am, as I’ve been heading out early for work I’m happy to have had a great customer service experience after what feels like far too long Will be staying here going forward when I travel here!
LAUREN CALTA
While the hotel itself was clean with an attractive lobby, the customer service was below what I would expect You must give 24 hours notice if you want your room cleaned and then I would recommend that you follow up to make sure your request is recorded I stayed Thursday through Monday and although I requested the room be cleaned twice, it was never documented in the computer and therefore never cleaned
I had to request twice for someone to come get the dirty towels from the room and getting a full set of clean towels was a chore The housekeeping staff was less than accommodating , as I had to chase down a cleaning cart to get fresh towels as the chamber maid ignored me while pushing the cart right by me Certainly not worth the money and I would not return

Great place to stay with family My kids had something to do everyday on the resort I love that we were able to also use the amenities of the nearby Wyndham resorts as well that was on the beach
I liked the pools and water slide for the kids Sitting by the pool was nice with evening live singers/bands The rooms was spacious and clean I enjoyed my stay immensely
Elizabeth Powers
I gave 4 stars for the rooms because they’re a bit outdated but extremely well maintained Service was outstanding from all departments The employees respect their duties and the visitors
Location was great also with every and anything close by I only gave it 4 stars because I had to commute to and from Miami at 45-60 minutes each way, but I knew that prior to booking my stay Overall, I’d definitely stay here again and would recommend to anyone wanting a comfortable and relaxing stay at a very well kept and friendly resort
Christina Sutton
Rooms were pretty spacious We had a two bedroom two bath which had a king size bed and double beds There was washer n dryer In the unit
The front desk was friendly and not pushy about buying a timeshare Great amenities, the slide, the gym, the activities center Only downsides were their happy hour wasn’t complimentary and the checkout is at 10am

We had a great stay and would definitely recommend! This place has a nice “at home” feeling It was certainly not a hotel, which we weren’t expecting or wanting The bonus was that the price was WAY BETTER than getting a hotel room
Jess was super nice and responded to a couple questions we had within a short time; she coordinated our arrival time well when we arrived a little earlyEntrances were private There’s a nice private common area with a hot tub and a grill The unit we stayed in had a private screened in porch area that is shared with another unitEverything was very clean and welcomingEven the Florida lizards were polite and fun to hang out with; especially Paco, who I think may have been part of the service staff But he kindly joined me and enjoyed my banana for breakfast; he was great conversationalist!It would be a perfect place to book a couple units for a family/friend trip or for just a quiet getaway
brittani gillon
Only issue I had was the guest They were obvious drug addicts They were loud
I had to go off on them because of how loud they were The property manager did what she could to Accommodate and even get rid of the guest She offered a discount for my next stay Overall the property itself was very beautiful and clean I have no problem staying there again Sometimes they can not help who books there no matter how much their screen guest

Stayed here for 2 nights (Nov 2018) during a month long road trip around Florida, out of the 22 different places we stayed in during the month I ranked this 10th overallThe property is located on a busy road which we couldn’t safely turn left across, so we had to drive past and then come back to it on the right hand side Parking is provided off road between the street and the property
It’s about a 20minute walk to ‘Pirate Republic’ stop of the ‘Water Taxi’, Stranahan House downtown is about a 35minute walkI was a bit concerned about the entry system as the blurb says no one is on site after 3pm; we were due to arrive around 5pm However, Cynthia sent me an email a couple of days prior to our arrival date with the code for the front door Cynthia was actually there when we arrived, but this was unfortunately due to their having been an RTA that morning right outside the property which had wiped out a pylon and had cut off all the power! The electricity was literally reconnected by the power co as we walked through the front doorThe rooms were clean and well appointed The kitchen was well equipped (only place we stayed with a full oven/stove), although the coffee maker didn’t work very well during our stay The bedrooms do appear small as the bed takes up nearly all the space, but it is after all just a place to lay your head for a night or so There was no TV in the bedroom, just one in the decently sized lounge/dining roomThere is a guest laundry facility which was most welcome after 10 days on the road, and there is also a nice outdoor area with a grill for all guests to useThis is a place I would recommend staying at if on a tighter budget!

Far from the madding crowd A great quiet location with everything you could need for a quiet vacation within a 20 minute walk On site breakfast bar has a wide variety of delicious snacks and meals with pleasant attendants
Many local restaurants and bistros within a 10 minute saunter, although it does get crowded at normal feasting times! A wide variety of rooms to suit most peoples tastes, and the in room a/c is adequate for the climate Bathroom supplies were plentiful and housekeeping were always somewhere on hand for top ups or little extras A great little find
Maranda Jean
This is my go to spot for when I’m in town for work and the ladies at the front are so wonderful! Natasha always remembers me greets me with a smile as soon as I walk in I enjoy her conversation and look forward to my stays here because of her! The entire staff is so gracious and kind There is a nice little Starbucks and bar
Rooms are always clean and hotel is maintained extremely well Great work to this staff!

There were major problems with noise coming from a party in the hotel’s pool past 11:30 PM at night The hotel allowed 20 or more people to stay in the pool past the stated 11 PM closing time (the pool is in the middle of the hotel property) When a phone call was placed to the front desk at 11:30 PM about excessive noise still coming from a party happening in the pool, the desk attendant explained that the hotel cannot ask guests to leave the pool area even though it was time for it to close for the evening based on the hotel’s own rules
This was an absurd answer for a Marriott employee to give to a guest I’m all for people having a good time but what about the rest of the guests going to sleep? Hotels have rules for a reason This is second time we have used this hotel and won’t use it again

Our company held a conference with approximately 40 people staying at the hotel including myself Everything was amazing from the reservation process, to checking in and room accommodations We had food catered in for two events and everything was amazing
The staff at this hotel makes planning and holding an event easy I had so many other elements to handle and having Maureen Sallustio, the Director of Sales manage the event was a blessingThe general staff all were accommodating, willing to help in any way, and went above and beyond

Make sure to use ʜoᴛᴇʟʙᴏʟʟʏᴄᴏm when booking any room This site will compare hundreds of booking websites and normally will have rates much cheaper compared to others! Thank me later! This place is one of the best in the area
I’ve been staying here for a long time If you stay for a few days you won’t regret itEverything was amazing The valet was very fast and efficient, all the staff was very kind and the rooms were clean! The gym was a tad small but I expect it I travel for business so this was everything I neededPhilencia Smith at the front desk treated me with the up most respect and made sure my stay was more than comfortable I had a horrible trip on the way there and after our interaction, I felt so relieved and grateful that she was there to help me9/10!!!
Jennifer Cale
We saved about $20 a night by staying here rather than other nearby hotels NOT worth it! Being cheap didn’t pay offIssues:- A lot of hair on the comforter
– Thin bedding that didn’t keep us warm- Stairs inaccessible from outside- Treadmill and elliptical were old models that haven’t been maintained and didn’t work well- Our outside view was obscured by a wall- Low water pressure- Loud wall AC unit The thermostat inside wasn’t attached to anything- Relatively remote location, so more miles put on the rental car- All staff have masks hanging down below their noses- The fridge is tiny – smaller than a dorm sized one – and the back half had built up ice, so our leftovers froze- Thin walls, loud noise from halls- They do offer breakfast, but only if you pay for each item- Stains on the bedding

My boyfriend and I had the most amazing stay here The hotel is charming, with gorgeous decor and a warm atmosphere The location could not be beaten
I think it was worth spending a bit more to be on Los Olas Blvd and be able to walk to all the fun restaurants and shops And the pool! I loved the pool It was along the canal and was very peaceful and beautiful
Marcia Coda
Beautiful hotel right on Las Olas Blvd where there are loads of shops and restaurants Rooms are nice
Beautiful interior Location is great Across the street is the Boathouse restaurant (owned by the hotel) where you can sit by the river watching a continuous flow of boats Employees are friendly and helpful We would definitely return Can’t say enough good things

First time staying at this particular hotel I loved it Even though it was 12 miles away from the convention center, I didn’t mind the drive because it is a world better than the hotels right by the convention center
I loved the location Staff was very nice and eager to assist with whatever you needed Exactly what you would expect from a Marriott property I will stay there again and hopefully Plantation Walk will be open Very nice!
Minh Hua
I have stayed over 1,000 nights at a Marriott branded Hotel This Hotel is significantly below average compared to other Sheratons I stayed atLet me first start with a positives
The guy in the club lounge was super curious, responsive and wanted to help Excellent service mire commonly found in Asia or Latin America that the United States The lobby gets lots of natural light and it appears was remodeled not too long ago It’s got your standard breakfast area, a little bar and some conference rooms There’s a fountain outside and there’s plenty of parkingThe reason why I’m getting this two stars is because the rooms are just very old and kind of dirty For example, there is scum in mildew all over the bathroom Another example of the coffee table was scratched up Except for the mattress, it felt more like a old courtyard Marriott than a Sheraton The room is large as you would expect in a suite but again in bad need of updating The drapery seem like it came from the 1990s The shampoo and soap they give you is from big bottles of fixed to the shower wall There’s some hygiene risk there given I’m sure they don’t replace the whole bottle after every guestI have included photos so you can judge for yourselfThe AC unit was loud and didn’t respond to the thermostat very well I think I might have caught a head cold or something after two nights
Maggie Lou
Did a weekend staycation, this hotel is located in the heart of the upcoming area of Plantation Walk For that reason, make sure you get a parking pass because they do ticket cars There is security patrolling the area on a cart
Just a reminder parking isn’t free The staff were really nice and helpful The Sheraton Suites appears to be renovated from the outside and lobby area There are places were upgrades can occur such as the pool and hot tub area The room was nice but it has it quirks like turning the switch down to turn on the light, the noise the sink makes, the struggle opening the closet, and the movement of the refrigerator when you opened it They have a dining area where they serve breakfast, Starbucks, and a small bar Aside for a sign saying they have a breakfast buffet, if you don’t inquire about its most hush-hush There were not many people eating meals when I pass by in the morning or evening If there was a menu available in the room or during check-in, I’m sure they would have more people The hotel was reasonably priced but certain days the price fluctuates tremendously especially weekends and holidays

I’ve been staying here for a long time If you stay for a few days you won’t regret itI feel this is a hidden gem It’s a great upscale hotel Very attractive furnishings I found my room to be very clean with a very comfortable bed The shower is super huge with plenty of hot water! Little extra touches of classy shampoo and a makeup mirror I actually like the quiet location as well

Very modern updated hotel with decent size rooms, very comfortable beds and beautiful bathroom, only wish it had a smart TV, and lighting is too white, almost florescent in the rooms The lighting is actually really bad The pool is heated and very nice
The restaurant here was very good with excellent lighting and ambience The food and service were outstanding Excellent salsa, & guacamole with delicious chips is highly recommended Large portions of everything!!

I usually take negative reviews with a grain of salt because some people just tend to over complain when they think they’ve had a bad experience, but this truly is a bad experience The hotel is nice it’s clean, but there was one towel in my bathroom, you can only request maid service if you are staying three nights or more, and in an 11 floor hotel only one elevator is working… and they don’t expect the other elevator to be working for at least another week
The one elevator that is working only works intermittently I believe because you have to wait so long that the system just automatically resets and then the button doesn’t work again They don’t have complimentary coffee in the lobby The front desk staff wasn’t very warm and inviting at check-in and couldn’t even recommend any local restaurants to try I would think that for $300 per night I would at least get a complementary cup of coffee, a warm greeting, or more than one towel If none of these things matter to you then this is a hotel for you Otherwise buyer beware…

Excellent service! I don’t leave reviews usually u til I have taken the full experience of a location in but Shaun really nailed it for us last night! I 100% failed on making sure our room would be ready and to book a day in advance because of landing at 1am Shaun was polite in our grumpiness of being idiots (and forgetting duh, it’s Spring Break) asked if we could wait a few minutes to see if anyone else showed for the night, and was able to secure us a room super early Rooms are clean, nice and cold for the South Florida heat, and quiet
Very modern newer hotel Quick drive from the airport and right off the highway but still quiet! Other than hearing the planes take off but even so, it’s soothing Breakfast is just some quick items but still a good selection of options All the staff has been very friendly which I know working customer service myself can be a challenge at times Would highly recommend if you’re looking for something that isn’t right on the beach but close enough to both the beach, airport, and dining options! Also appreciate that after 10:30PM you have to buzz in to be let in I appreciate that security after hours

We came from a hotel that was well below our expectations This hotel was a breath of fresh air and made our stay very comfortable We felt at home and had a great experience with all staff
Breakfast is provided every day and is delicious There is a pool outside that is nicely shaded in the morning Additionally, everything is extremely clean They also offer a shuttle service to and from the airport Would highly recommend!

The hotel and the staff were awesome I checked in on 03/11/22 around 130 AM after leaving another hotel in the area that I had awful experience that evening When I arrived at Avid I was not sure if I wanted to lodge for one night or the remainder of my trip
The clerk Shawn was understanding, pleasant, and was very helpful with explaining my options regarding pricing and availability I decided to stay for one night The next morning, I went to the front desk to extend my stay for another 3 days The morning clerk Elizabeth and the manager Ryan again were sympathetic and understanding regarding my experience at the previous hotel The staff greeted me and my family daily They made me feel at ease and encouraged me to enjoy the rest of my trip The hotel itself was very clean, bright, and inviting The breakfast offered in the morning was continental, but everything was wrapped and secure due to Covid precautions I was very appreciative of that The room we stayed in was nice and cozy The beds were comfortable, and the bathroom was clean and spacious Although there were no closets or dressers in the room, there was space for my family’s belongings to be put away I would definitely stay at this hotel and its brand again
