Proč to lidé milují

- No resort or destination fees
- Easy access to I-95 for exploring both Pompano and downtown
Rychlý přehled: A functional corporate fortress that doubles as a budget-friendly launchpad if you don't mind driving to the ocean.
Recenzoval @jadespangler: I drove down to Ft. Lauderdale and stayed here—it was surprisingly aesthetic! The lobby has these massive windows facing the trees, which I loved. My room was spacious, clean, and had this cool textured wall. Felt super safe and cozy for a solo trip.

Časté otázky a skryté tipy
Vše, co opravdu chcete vědět, než si zarezervujete.
Is there really free parking?
Yes, self-parking is completely free, which is a unicorn in Fort Lauderdale.
How far is the beach?
About 5-6 miles. Expect a 15-20 minute drive depending on traffic.
Is breakfast included?
No. Unless you have Marriott Platinum+ status or book a 'Stay for Breakfast' rate, expect to pay ~$20/person at The Preserve.
Is the pool heated?
Technically yes, but guests frequently report it feels chilly, especially on breezy days.
Can I walk to restaurants?
Not really. It's a corporate park area. You'll want to drive 5 minutes to nearby plazas.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, but there is a non-refundable pet fee (around $75).
Insider tipy
- ✨
Walk across the street to the Cypress Creek Tri-Rail station if you want a cheap train ride to Miami or West Palm Beach.
- ✨
The 'Preserve' restaurant is just okay—drive 5 mins to Zuckerello's for much better Italian food.
- ✨
Ask for a 'feather-free' room if you have allergies; they default to down pillows.
