BUYER BEWARE!!! The listing advertises wifi but we had zero working wifi 1 day into our check in. The complex apparently only has one modem that gives off a wifi signal to all of the units in the complex (10+ units) so the wifi is absolutely terrible and not functional. We consistently messaged the host non stop for 4 days to fix the wifi and they kept telling us to "unplug and replug" the modem booster. Eventually we had no choice but to leave the airbnb and book a different place that had working wifi. The host is a vacation rental company so it's like talking to a bot every time you message them - they offer no solution and are completely vague in their responses. 0/10 rating for their communication - they did absolutely nothing to help us and only offered to come look at our modem once we got airbnb involved. No urgency on their end when obviously wifi is the #1 amenity that guests care about/need during their stay. IF YOU NEED FUNCTIONAL WIFI DURING YOUR STAY FOR WORK, SCHOOL ETC, AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS!!
Other things to note:
- the apartments are in a really sketchy area - we didn't feel safe at all especially during the evenings and half of the units are located on the first floor including this listing, so you have zero privacy and have to shut all of the blinds to avoid people seeing inside the unit when they walk by
- the AC unit is located in the bedroom and is unbelievably LOUD!!! another thing they clearly cheaped out on
- none of the doors in the unit close properly, the apartments were constructed in a way where none of the doors are sealed (another cheap job on the hosts end) - so don't expect any of the doors in the unit to close all the way.
- they dont have simple items in the kitchen such as salt and pepper or paper towels. when we asked for paper towels for the unit they sent us toilet paper instead.
- the unit IS EXTREMELY SMALL, something to consider. It didn't necessarily bother us but they definitely do a good job of making the unit look bigger in their professional photos. Something to consider if space is important to you.
- they have a small shared pool but no pool chairs, so you have to sit on the concrete floor if you want to go for a swim (???) or bring your own beach chairs.
Overall: do not recommend this place, especially for longer stays. WIFI is horrible. Communication with host is even worse and there are way better comparable options in fort lauderdale for the same range of prices. Save your money and book elsewhere!
