if you're thinking about staying here,DO IT!!! my son and I stayed here twice during our trip to Miami and both timeswas an excellent experience. this location is 5 minutes away from fort Lauderdale and about 35 minutes away from MIA. we had a rental car so the drive really wasn't a problem (we were leaving from MIA) Both times we were greated with such hospitality and warmth like we were part of the family. the backyard is peaceful with a patio and fan, and there are multiple fruit trees growing as well (along with a baby pineapple). your room is more like an apartment, and is separate from the rest of the house with a private entrance. I felt very safe and I really enjoyed our time here. thank you again ladies ❤❤❤
