Renovation of all rooms is now complete, per Front Desk. Was very pleasantly surprised at the renovation. The lobby and atrium have not been renovated. Looks much like it probably did 15 years ago with a tropical theme and palm trees growing up through the 8 floors of the atrium. To make it all complete, they really need to freshen up the lobby, but as it is it is not a major negative.

But when you enter the rooms, you immediately move into the 21st century. Sleek dark wood furniture with blue and white accents on the upholstered pieces. Nice new vanity in the bath with the bowed shower curtain that began with Westin some years back. Very nice redo on the rooms.

Bathrooms are very small - but the 2 room suite makes up for the small bath.

Would not hesitate to recommend it for business hotel or others not needing a beachfront location.

After reading the reviews, I was leery of this hotel. But I was using Starwood points, so the stay was basically free.
We loved it. Our family of four stayed for 4 days. Our room was redecorated and extremely quiet.
The hotel was supposed to be full ,but we didn't hear any noise from other patrons. There wasn't any noise from trains or planes either.
The hotel is a bought out Embassy Suites, so if you've ever stayed at one, they are all set up the same. We had wonderful service from the staff ,especially the waiter who served us at the pool.
We enjoyed the food, but we ate out at the other restaurants most of the time because there are so many good ones within walking distance. Some examples are the diner that is open 24/7. They have a fantastic breafast where you can sit outside to dine. That's a big deal for us Snowbirds.
There's also a Bennigans, Hooters, Steak and Ale, Longhorn Steak House and a theater within walking distance. We didn't need reservations on the week-ends because it's a business district. The restaurants are not busy on the week-ends except for Hooters. We had great service everywhere we went.
We enjoyed the pool area at the hotel. The kids had fun with the other children at the pool. The pool was never crowded but the pool lounge chairs are full by 11:00A.M. One big drawback for us was there isn't a bar by the pool.
Unfortunately, the bar in the hotel doesn't open until 3:00P.M. which was our biggest complaint. They really need bar service
at the pool and the bar needs to open sooner. I mean, come on, it's a vacation!
Anyway, we had a nice time at our short stay here. We would
probably stay again with our own cooler of Corona by the pool.

3/9/08: Stayed at the Sheraton Suites Cypress Creek in Fort Lauderdale on a business trip 3/5 and 3/6.

The room was musty and not very clean room. Coffee maker inoperable and resulted in spill of grounds/coffee all over bar counter. Bar counter and bathroom counter had lots of small ants crawling around. Mold in the shower; hair on the bathroom floor, large hole in the shower stall. Hand towels were not replenished on second day...none...had to use one of only two bath towels which were thin, short and rough.

Restaurant was poorly staffed...waited a while before the "waiter", and I use that term loosely, finally stopped setting the tables and came over to seat me...in the empty restaurant! Food was barely adequate but pricey. Ate at the bar the second night and the bartender was gracious, helpful and very quick despite the bar being two deep. Food was adequate.

I travel constantly on business and although this hotel is very close to my business needs, I will not stay there again and have advised my co-workers not to do so as well.

Hotel is totally renovated and the train noise has STOPPED! The train can't blow its horn any more at this intersection!! Hotel rooms are beautiful and very comfortable. Great staff and food at dinner was wonderful.
