B Ocean Resort Fort Lauderdale Beach
No beach view. I overlooked a parking lot. Disappointed. Coffee makers broken and wall outlets at Ned’s didn’t work.

Fontainebleau Miami Beach
The worst I’ve ever stayed at. Horrible service, staff, and dirty room. My 3 year old daughter got bedbug bites as soon as we walked in the room and laid on the bed. It also took the staff 2 days to bring the mini fridge to the room. Terrible hotel for the hype and price they charge.

If you enjoy old, dirty, poorly maintained rooms that feature used child swimsuits (and you don’t have children) with loud staff who stand around instead of assisting you and paying a premium for it, the Mondrian is spot for you! Slow service, stingy with towels, and rundown. Very disappointing. ...

Everything about this hotel is great for our night before our cruise. The airport shuttle that’s included. Fast and friendly service. And the next day, the shuttle to the cruise port(also include included in your stay), very organized fast. Couldn’t ask for a more organized clean place.
