Great place to stay and they are really close to the beach! Place is a bit outdated but that is ok. I would only suggest to have more pillows on the bed!
I went outside when i can back they change the lock for the room make me get scare and then . They put other key i didnt have my phine with me . And my husban he did know the number from where i make the reservation . So i have to figure it out how to found the number to call them. And then they say the have to do this .. i didnt like it .

Very spacious and clean room with all the regular things needed for a homelike experience. Loved the work desk and flowers.
Staff online and at hotel very professional and personable.
I liked that a professional effort was made to rectify the two challenges that occurred.
- Didn't Like
I didn't understand how to use the TV. Confusing layout onscreen.
I didn't like that my lockbox code was not correct and I had to wait long to get into the room. It should have been checked before I arrived.
I didn't like that the toilet was leaking at the bottom and that there were no signs telling me to put any and all toilet paper in the waste bin.
I didn't like waiting without constant communication. My recommendation is that when a guest is waiting for a situation to be addressed, that someone keep in touch every now and then so that the guest isn't there waiting and wondering what's next or what's happening.
4.5 stars overall. I would love to stay there again in a similar room.
We love ALOT about this place- it is spacious for a studio! The pool is wonderful! Short walk to the beach & grocery store :) You can get by without a car! While the mattress is comfortable, the metal headboard & flat pillows have got to go! The bed frame is sharp on the corners because the mattress is smaller than the frame. I almost gashed my leg on it! The kitchen had one pot & 2 small skillets, but no pans for the oven! So we couldn't use it, So, we ate canned goods we could heat in the microwave :( We will stay again, but ask for a different room.
There was no kleenex. Check in should be 3pm and check out same but not so rushed. Otherwise, I was very pleased. I would highly recommend it and would come again.
Had everything we needed. Shopping, dining, and grocery store all within walking distance. Beach was one block away. Great location! Can't beat the price.
The property was great. Very clean and we had everything we needed. Pool was great and clean check in was very easy. As soon as I texted about anything I got a respond back right away. me and my boyfriend will definitely come back! The only thing I can say could be updated is the mattress on the bed. It was definitely very hard but we managed. Thank you for a great weekend!

This is a no-frills, old apartment- motel building with small kitchenette. The rooms are dated but generally clean. However, without room service or scheduled cleaning, they can become quite dirty quickly. The surrounding area is pleasant, with good restaurants and convenience stores nearby.

We were delayed 20 minutes because the room was still being cleaned whrn we got there. Then we find out the tv was not working that was another 45 minutes of troubleshooting with the roku setup. The floor in the room had some sand so wasnt cleaned very well. The beds are auper uncomfortable and stiff. Apart from that everything else was fine. I personally would not stay here again due to the uncomfortable bed
Tranquille, propre, c’est comme un airbnb. Personne sur place. J’aurais aimé voir plus tôt dans mon séjour qu’il y avait d’autre serviettes de cacher dans le haut du garde robe dans un sac. J’aurais pas eu à faire un lavage. La porte de la salle de bain ne fermait pas. Moppe et chaudière mais pas de balais. Planche à repasser mais pas de fer. Oreiller trop mince. Bon dans l’ensemble nous avons aimé notre séjour.
Great property with easy access to beach and restaurants!

Not a bad location for Lauderdale on sea beach. Price per night fell into the budget category, and with a kitchenette that was fairly well appointed. Difficulty with not having any staff on duty over problem with electronic lock with dead batteries and a party of youths around the pool late, well past the posted time, but other benefits like good parking made this at least an average motel stay for two weeks around Easter.
