My husband and baby were supposed to stay here the night before a cruise to the bahamas - this hotel is very close to port. Lori the hotel keeper arranged for our transportation to the port. We were also greeted to a FREE "Happy hour" of wine beer soda and snacks - there every night!!! The rooms are small (like... more

The hotel was located very close to the airport, and it may have been a little small but the presentation was very good. The manager was very nice and a made you feel very comfortable. more

I thought we were on top of a pre-cruise overnight reservation, but over and over we encountered "no room at the inn" or exorbitant prices. All we wanted was a clean, safe, convenient place to sleep overnight. Our shuttle driver from Miami airport was not familiar with America's Best but drove to the street address. We were a bit confused... more

I stayed here one night before my cruise departed. When I arrived, my first thought was, this is a dump from the outside , but was pleasantly surprised. The owners lived in the building and were VERY friendly! They have complimentary wine and beer from 5-7 at night in the lobby area where there is a couple of chairs and... more

While it was a little difficult to find the hotel the first time around, we not only stayed there the one night on the way down but once more on the way back. Both times Lori, one of the two people who run the place most of the time, was one of the nicest people I've dealt with in all... more

We were here for an overnight stopover before boarding our cruise in Ft Lauderdale. I'd booked the hotel through is website. I want to say at the outset that we have travelled extensively -- this particular stopover was at the beginning of a two month trip ithrough South America, during which we encountered nothing that even remotely compared to the... more

This is a perfect budget pre-cruise choice. Don't be scared by previous reviews, but do be realistic about your expectations. If you really want great dining, walks on the beach, shopping, and a Fort Lauderdale experience, this may not be your best choice. But if you're budget minded and have a rental car, it's perfect. The owner Chris, and his... more

America’s Best Inn by the Airport in Ft. Lauderdale a nicely renovated 1950’s style single story motel (I took several photos inside and out but they would not upload into Tripadvisor site without jumping through hoops, sorry) about a mile north of the FLL airport, on the way to the cruise port (the 24th Street cruise port entrance is a... more

The hotel is very cute, offers a small breakfast and we were offered a free beverage of our choice when we checked in. We also came up to their Happy Hour and meet some interesting people from aound the world. It was right by the airport, so when we had to get up at 5am and get to our flight,... more

I have never in all my life been to a more disgusting hotel in my life. It is far from it's name sake. The bathroom shower had mold and the floor was coming undone. There were stains on the carpet and marks and badly patched holes on the walls. The mattresses were so used that comfort would not be an... more
