“Moral of Story - Read the Reviews”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed March 28, 2012

I usually read the reviews, but in this instance I did not have time and just rushed it and booked a hotel in my usual $100 per night target area. It was advertised as 3 stars so I figured it should be ok. On a positive note, the check in and reception staff were very pleasant. chatty and accomodating.

Now the rest: Is is located across the street from the beach area, and the beach area is full of Condos with private beach access, so take a bus or walk a long way to get onto the beach.

The room is in a very poor condition, think Days Inn style, but dirty carpet with holes, the door is filthy from shoe marks, no night lock, I took the little refrigeration and backed it up against the door to sleep. Traffic on the street very noisy. This is probably ok for back-backers or springs breakers, but beyond that, forget it. I would not stay here again.

Room Tip: Unless your on a very tight budget, I would not stay here.

“Disaster”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed March 21, 2012

The reception staff is unfriendly and try to con you out of money the rooms are disgusting and the manager Penny will not even listen to any of your complaints the room key system is primitive and the doors dont close properly. drug dealers and prostitutes hang around openly and the oly good thing about the place is the bar. The breakfast is days old donuts and flap jac's

If your looking for a cheap dump this is the place to stay

Room Tip: ask for 3rd floor

On behalf of new management, we would like to express how much we appreciate your feedback. Our community and certain hotels in the area have taken measurements to control the traffic of undesirable personnel. The hotel staff makes it a priority to listen and satisfy each and every guest's need. The Fort Lauderdale Beach Palace is currently being renovated and keeps a requirement to monitor any and all accommodations. The property is under close surveillance and management can guarantee that you as a guest will experience a much more comforting and pleasant stay should you choose to stay with us in the future.

“Worst Hotel I have ever stayed at”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed January 2, 2012

Room smelled musty, sheets and comforters had holes in them, carpet was dirty, Someone opened the door with a key and walked in on my girl and I both naked hours after we checked in, when i went down to the front desk and complained the guy there said he was just checking the room because it showed vacant on his computer. Later that night i saw and killed two bugs in the room. No one cleaned the room after the first day, they just replaced the towels and didnt even make the beds or take out the trash not to mention replacing the quarter roll of toilet paper they gave us for two days stay....we had to buy our own. Breakfast was terrible! watered down coffee, cold pancakes and a few english muffins and mini donuts and pancakes. I am never staying here again!

“probably was not bad when it was new in the 60's, but now...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed August 26, 2011

I am nw most aware that you have to be carefull when booking on line because the information and moreover the pictures could be very misleading. I suggest to avoid cheap places inn turistic areas.
Rooms were not actually bad inside, at least those I have seen at the 3rd floor, but the outside, the breackfast room, the lift and evrything is very poor looking. Furthermore they charge you for toll free calls (50c + tax) and something wrong in their system makes the line drop several times. They at first accepted to withdraw the cost of the lost calls and then they denied and said "they never said so". Unbelivable
