The Sheldon is remodeling, but still a great place to stay! I would and have recomended the Sheldon to anyone wanting to stay on the beach. The room we had was clean. We had a balcony which is over the broadwalk and beach. The staff was like family. They went out of their way to assist us. We felt very... more

Instead of listing what has already previously posted, JUST STAY AWAY. I have traveled the world on a budget, but this place is worse than a third world motel. Also, stay away from the shops on the first floor facing the beach, especially the women's clothing store-Miss ??? all clothing are knockoffs & overpriced. Anyone giving this place more than... more

Make sure you check your beds. I stayed at the Sheldon and found the bed I was sleeping in infested with bedbugs!!!! I have the scars on my body to prove it and it was also reported to the Florida Department of Health. Very nasty and disgusting. People smoking crack in the stairwells and the smell of vomit everywhere. I... more

This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. We were taking our kids for a cruise. We got in at 11:00 pm for one night. There were broken blinds on the windows; we had to take 9 suitcases up 3 flights of stairs because the elevator was broken. The room was filthy, dirty towels in the bathroom. I... more

we checked in at midnight and the staff was very friendly and helpful. After going through a maze of hallways we found our room - the Alan Alda room - every room has a star's name on it. In the morning we woke up early enough to see the sunrise and were very surprised to find that we were really... more

This was the absolute worst hotel and customer service experience ever. This property was run down and disgusting. There were holes and stains on a majority of the walls. The windows were so dirty that you could not see out of them. Worst of all the elevator was broken so if you are elderly or in a wheel chair there... more

Upon arriving at 3am after a 6 1/2 hour drive we were ALL exhausted... The sleep deprivation DEF had an effect on the reason we stayed to begin with. I booked this room 3 weeks prior through expedia. When calling on the day of arrival I was told they had NO confirmation of our stay (which they found when contacted... more

I agree with a couple of the writers with similar sentiment. This hotel is certainly not the Ritz, but if you are looking to be close to the beach, in the heart of the Hollywood, FL boardwalk scene and save some $$, this is the place for you. My husband, 9 yr old son & I stayed there for 2... more
