We visited Hollywood beach on several different occasions staying at different places and this was our first time at this place. First the positive: Great location, free parking, nicely renovated, easy access to all amenities the beach and surrounding area as to offer. The negative: The bed was not very comfortable and had a plastic cover over it which made crackling sound every time you move - we ended up going to Walt-Mart and bought a foam mattress topper which made it much more comfortable to sleep on. The mattress was also sprayed with a disinfectant and was literally soaked with a bit of a smell to it. The outside has bright LED lights which lights up the room at night - the white vinyl blinds are not adequate to keep the light out and I would highly recommend black out curtains - very difficult to get a good night sleep with these factors. If you are planning on having someone sleep on the futon good luck! It is hard as rock and very small - maybe good for a small child. We bought lots of fruits, watermelons etc. and the kitchen did not have scissors or sharp knifes to cut anything - only butter knives. Due to the way the kitchen counter was done the fridge door rubs on the counter when opening/closing making it difficult to fully open or close the door - we had to pull the fridge out to have proper access. On the privacy side you can hear the conversations in the room next to you. The door for the unit when closed or locked has a gap so light coming in from there as well. When we first entered the unit their was an awful smell - we found oil scented sticks which had a very bad fragrance overpowering the entire unit - needless to say we removed them immediately. Personally, I would not stay at this place again.
