Staying at Sam's place was great! Right next to the Las Olas area with lots of bars and restaurants. Also, getting to the beach was super easy: It's a 2 mile walk (not bad when the weather is so nice) or a short car drive to the public parking which runs about $15-20 per day. One thing to note: At the end of our trip (Jan. 2019) the complex started doing construction on the pool, so the pool is closed for the foreseeable future. The gym and the roof decks are still open (and really nice), just not the pool.
