We stayed in FL one night before leaving on a cruise the next morning. The port charges $15 a day for parking so I searched the net and found a few hotels in the area offering free parking for guests flying or cruising after their stay. Candlewood was cheaper than the others by quite a bit. I was a little... more

We arrived the night before our cruise and it was great! Had a nice suite with two beds, refrigerator, microwave (with popcorn included!) We took the shuttle from the Fort Lauderdale Airport and left for our cruise the next day. There is a grocery store across the street if you need anything. more

Clean rooms. Great price. Very quiet in the hotel and the surrounding area. We stayed 2 nights and it seemed pretty safe. Supermarket across the street along with beer and donut shops, conveinience store right down the street. Not a place to stay if you want to walk to the beach, but if you have a car it is a... more

My husband and I needed a room for one night before going on our cruise. First we were picked up immediately upon calling from the airport for a FREE ride to hotel. This hotel is fairly new and very clean. The staff is very friendly. After checking in we went across the street to the strip mall. There we found... more

I booked seven rooms at this hotel in November for my wedding party. Since this was a special event I had higher expectations than usual. I am happy to say that this hotel exceeded those expectations in quality, value and service. The location is within walking distance of good restaurants, the rooms are clean, modern and comfortable. The added refrigerator... more

We used this hotel when we flew into Ft. Lauderdale before a cruise. Since our flight landed so late at night, we decided to stay by the airport and then drive out to Miami the next day. When we arrived at FLL, the Courtesy Center indicated that the hotel ran shuttles at regular intervals except between 11pm and 5 am.... more

We stayed in this hotel using hotel points for a pre-cruise night. It was a nice, comfortable hotel. It's great for a one night stay but it's fairly isolated. It is a room with a kitchenette, large fridge, microwave, dishes, etc. The bed was very comforable. Clean bathroom. more

Stayed here before our cruise. Free airport shuttle was efficient. Shuttle to cruiseport was $7 per person at 10:30, 11:30 and 12:30 - first come, first serve but they had a sign-up list the day before. Again, very efficient. Room was beautiful, cherry woods, warm colors, granite counters. Bed was very comfortable. Full kitchen with all utensils. Large 32" TV.... more

We stayed here for the night before our Royal Carribbean cruise. They offered free shuttle from Ft.Lauderdale airport so that was convenient. There is nothing within walking distance of the hotel- you would need a car if staying longer than one night. We ordered delivery service from a local pizzeria for dinner - they have menus available at the front... more
