“Great value for pre-cruise stay, pleasantly surprised”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 27, 2012

We got an amazing price on a room right through the Best Western website. Somethind ridiculously cheap, like $59.99. Figured I was going to get what I paid for, but we got much more.

Shuttle service from the airport was fast and the driver was very courteous. The hotel is located alongside a busy highway, but our room faced the back and was nice and quiet. Bed was VERY comfy and the sanitary remote control cover was a nice touch. Room was clean, big bathroom. Very good complimentary breakfast. The pool area out back was big enough, and clean. Lots of smokers out there though, would be nice if it was smoke free.

There are several restaurants within walking distance, although you have to cross a busy off ramp from the highway and walk under the highway. There's a large plaza on the other side of the highway as well, with an Old Navy, K-Mart, etc. Good for some last minute pre-cruise shopping. There's several fast food places as well. When walking back to the hotel from that area, be sure to cross the main street BEFORE the highway, or else you're stuck without a crosswalk and have to make it across a very busy street.

Check-in and check-out were simple. We were picked up by SAS Transportation for the ride down to Miami.

Room Tip: Our room faced the back and we did not hear any traffic.

“Pre-cruise”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 25, 2012

We stayed here for 1 night before our cruise from Miami. The hotel has a free airport shuttle, which was nice, but takes a little while as it stops at some other hotels as well. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable, but nothing fancy. It was good enough for one night before our cruise. Also, it was convenient for us that SAS Transportation picked us up there to take us to the Port of Miami. The free breakfast wasnt that good, but there are a couple of restaurants nearby, as well as a Winn Dixie, which was good for picking up snacks, etc. for our cruise. It wasn't much, but a decent place to stay for the night. Would return again.

“Overnight stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 9, 2012

The check in was seamless and quick our room was very clean and neat. The breakfast was great but we had little time to enjoy it as our airport bus was right on time. Check out was easy and quick. The staff were all pleasant, efficient and courteous. Overall a nice place to stay and modest pricing.
