I had a great (but short!) stay with John & Mermolina. Their home is lovely and the location is excellent! I chose this Airbnb given its proximity to the airport due to an early flight, but it's in a really nice area of Ft. Lauderdale, with lots of other beautiful houses nearby. I was able to walk to the shops and restaurants on Las Olas Blvd. (just a few minutes down the street) and also to the beach (a longer 30-min walk, but totally doable).

The bedroom was very clean and comfortable, and John & Mermolina had set aside towels and toiletries in my bedroom, like a hotel! The rest of the house was charming - many of the walls are hand-painted beautifully by John himself, and it's apparent that they've taken care to personalize their home over the years.

I enjoyed chatting with John & Mermolina, and they were super funny and sweet. I had a 6:30 AM flight, and Mermolina gave me some to-go breakfast items (banana, granola bar, extra bottled water) before I went to bed so I had something to eat when I got to the airport at 5am.

I would definitely recommend this room to anyone visiting the area, for the great location & great hosts!
