The location and the views are how they look on picture. You’re within walking distance to many different restaurants and stores, Hallandale Beach is right across the street and Fort Lauderdale and Miami were both about 20-25 mins away without traffic.
But, the hotel was a little smaller than it looked in photos, there is hardly anything to clean/tidy up (no vacuum, no cleaning spray, broom but no dustpan), and it was dirty when we walked in. Some of the bed sheets were dirty, the kitchen floors were still dirty from the previous guests, and the unit had a funky smell to it. The rug was also very dirty, and since there was no vacuum we couldn’t clean it up as good as we would’ve liked. If you’re going to have a unit with a great view of Hollywood and beyond, it should be cleaner and look like it does in the photos.
Other than that, the unit was great. You have a nice private balcony looking inland, and a great view of the boats and yachts out on the canal. Gorgeous beaches across the street, and a ton of restaurants/bars/stores just across the canal. Just the cleanliness needs to be improved!
