My husband, 14 month old son and myself stayed here the night of Jan 18th. Checking in the manager offered a larger room because we were traveling with a child and he could not provide a crib. For no extra charge he gave us the London room instead of Paris... The king bed was a 4" pillow top, so soft... More

Room was fully prepaid, Manny (owner) changed my initial booking from the Venice room to the Hawaiian room: downstairs, next to the parking lot and facing the walkway to the entrance hence I could not open my white drapes which were closed using pins (yes!). The bathroom had rusted metal framed windows, as if from a 3rd world country. Hair... More

Room was disgusting. Didn't even look like it had been cleaned. Wiped entire bathroom down because toilet seat was brown with filth. Hairs in bedding. Dust everywhere. Wouldn't walk on floor without shoes. White curtains offer no light blockage. Hair dryer was 50 years old and sparked. Almost caught my hair on fire. No parking. I WOULD RATHER SLEEP IN... More

We just returned from a weekend at Gigi's and found that while it is vintage, it is still a clean and comfortable place to stay. We were in the Paris room, which had a nice firm bed, leather sofa, flat screen tv with cable, refrigerator and microwave, hot tub/shower, wood floors, AC and quiet neighbors. Not only did we save...

We stayed here because we were headed out on a cruise. The location is great. The place is old, but yet the rooms were clean. They do have a nice little courtyard. You can walk to all the bars, and restaurants. Beach is very close too. Owner was hospitable as well. This is a fantastic beach. So all and all... More

Whatever you do...do not stay here. The pictures tell an entirely different story. The only thing going for this place is the location...so if you don't care if you stay in a filthy, roach infested, non running water facility, then by alll means stay there. We stayed here for three days and two nights. I reserved a room, since it... More

I stayed at GiGi's several years ago when it was owned by a gal named GiGi. It was much nicer than it has become under the new ownership. We were taking a cruise and since I had enjoyed my stay years earlier, I booked a room at the inn not realizing that it was under new ownership. WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!!!... More

I was very excited to stay at the Gigi's resort displayed on the website. When we arrived I quickly learned that this was not the "resort" I paid for. The first thing the young female manager asked us when we arrived was for our credit card. She made it clear that this is "NON-REFUNDABLE" and asked for payment immediately. We... More

I planned a trip to Ft. Lauderdale to celebrate my husband's birthday and was looking for a romantic place close to the beach. I had great experiences at bed and breakfasts before, so I was excited to find something so close to the beach. Unfortunately, that was about the only positive thing about the entire stay. We stayed in the... More

My husband and I found this place on a search for B&Bs, and unfortunately we were not impressed. The building is quite old, and though it has been fixed up, it still just feels old. There were about five/six free parking places for the whole place; we had to pay to park across the street. We stayed in the Nairobi... More
