John and Mermolina made us feel very welcome in their home. The location was perfect for walking and exploring old Ft. Lauderdale (even though there is lots of new construction). There are many nearby places to eat since Los Olas Blvd. was just a couple of blocks away. The beds were a perfect balance of firm and soft. There was a TV in our room with a zillion films you could watch. This, however, is just a sleeping room, so you must like sharing everything else (entry, living room, kitchen, bathroom) with Mermolina and John. We had a very enjoyable stay and lively evening talks.
