Even before I set foot in the lobby, I was horrified by what an eye-sore this place is! Once we got inside, things only got worse. It took almost a half-hour to check in. The room was hideous. You can hear every sound that comes from your neighbor's room. Staff was awful. In addition to the ridiculously long check-in, housekeeping did not leave clean towels one day, so we tried to call housekeeping on the phone, but none of the buttons on our phone worked. When I went to the front desk to ask for some towels, the person working there asked if I needed to take a shower right away. There is a free, unappealing continental breakfast, and even getting the front desk to give you your breakfast pass took about 5 minutes, when all they have to do is initial a piece of paper.

The outdoor bar is not affiliated with the hotel (the bartender wanted to make sure we knew this), and the staff was very friendly. But that was about the only thing this place had going for it.

Unless you like staying in a hotel that looks like it was featured in an episode of "Cops," DO NOT even think of staying here. Absolutely awful!!!

My family has been tavelling to Florida for 18 years, this is the worst place we have EVER stayed in.

I appreciate that Hurricane Wilma caused damage but 4 months on and the hotel was in a total state of disrepair and was filthy. We were due to stay for 2 week but only managed 2 nights.

I would never recommend this hotel to anyone.

Recently, my husband and I took a trip to Ft. Lauderdale. The photos of the Sea Club Resort (Motel) were beautiful. However, upon our arrival, we were met with a different sight all together. Needless to say, you get what you pay for. That being said, the location is ideal being that the motel is across the street from the beach and within walking distance to the famous Las Olas shops.
At check out we were told we owed additional money. Much to our surprise we were charged for a very unsecure looking safe that we never used. The Desk Clerk was gracious enough to point out that the sign taped to the desk clearly states that each guest will be charged a $2 fee per each day you stay at the hotel for the safe. Apparently, whether you use it or not. This is a new "gimmick". I have never heard of such a thing. Normally, you're charged for services you use not at the hotel's discretion. So, for future reference I guess it's a good idea to ask, "will we be charged for services that we don't use?"

We book this hotel for 14 nights and believe it or not, we have stayed their for this time. After booking I found this page in the internet and was shocked about the reviews of this hotel. But I have read that the rooms in the fifth floor are ok, so at the check in I told them that I want a room their.
The room was old but clean and no cockroaches the whole time, the only negative thing was, that the lock of the balconydoor was broken, so we felt a little bit unsafe. The pool was not very clean, but who needs a pool with this great beach and atlantic in front of door. Overall I was satisfied with the hotel because of the cheap price. Sure the Hotel is old and worn out, but the holiday was very cheap for us and we could buy a lot of things that are expensive in Germany.
