Well, Not what I expected at all. Mick is very nice but the women that works the counter is rude. Paid way to much money to stay at a very very old MOTEL.. the website is very misleading!!!! I DO NOT RECOMEND THIS MOTEL.... If you don't have high expectations then this is the place for you!!

Finding a hotel in a place you have never been before can be challenging. After reading the reviews of Tropi Rock, we decided to give it a try. After all, for just over $100 for an efficiency in a popular beach town, how can you beat that? We were very pleasantly surprised upon arriving at Tropi Rock. The landscaping around the building and pool area is just beautiful. Everything is brightly colored and tiled in a very fun way. The room we stayed in was clean, the bed was comfortable and we had everything we needed. The bathroom was rather small but we didn't spend much time there, so it didn't matter. Maid service was very friendly! The hotel is located just a short walk from the beach (about a block) and it's really the perfect location because you don't get any of the noise off of A1A. Actually that was the best part of the stay -- it was so quiet! We slept in pretty late most days and no one bothered us. The pool area was clean and the water was warm so it was great for an evening swim. Internet access was a very good perk. We looked up a lot of area information and things to do on there whenever we saw something that might interest us.
Beer/drinks were available in the lobby and they were no more than if you went to one of the beach stores (we saw a 6pack of beer for $12.99!!!). Anyway, all in all, Tropi Rock was worth every penny and we will definitely return when we go back to Ft. Lauderdale. It really is a place worth visiting and it was a nice change of pace to stay at a Mom & Pop place. Thanks Mick, Patty, boys, and Oliver! We had a great time.

My daughter and I visited in early February. Like the other reviewers, I found the owners charming and the pool area is pretty. However, overall the facilities are somewhat ramshackle and our room was not clean. There were dustballs in every crevice, there was hair in the bathtub, and the blinds were bent and grimy. Most disgusting though, we rented an efficiency room equipped with cookware and dishes that had ostensibly been cleaned, which we used for several meals before my daughter reached for the next bowl and discovered a petrified cookie and a mini candy bar stacked inside. The water pressure for our toilet was also extremely low, and we discovered a possible cause when we ran into the guest next door to us marching toward his room carrying a toilet plunger and commenting that the front desk said there was nobody around to help him.

If the TropiRock were just a little more modern and up-to-date, quieter with newer bathrooms and furnishings it would be better right? NO, then it would be the Best Western Airport. Please don't confuse "dated" with "dirty". Yes the Tropi-rock is showing its age but the beds are excellent and the sheets are spotless. There is a reason that people keep talking about Mick here. He is no "hypnotist" just a guy who is very sincere and proud of his hotel. There are many places to stay in Ft. Lauderdale. For the price, you will find none better. Please give the TropiRock a try, you won't be disappointed. We will definitely go back
