All-suite layout means separate living rooms for everyone
Free parking (a rarity in Fort Lauderdale)
Walking distance to Chase Stadium for Messi spotting
Quick Take: A tale of two hotels: the renovated suites are modern and crisp, while the unrenovated ones are a time capsule of despair you must avoid at all costs.
Reviewed by @ANDREATHOMAS4599760: I snagged an incredible deal on this suite for a weekend trip with my kids! The room is huge, and having that pull-out sofa was a lifesaver for our family of three. We loved the cozy courtyard view and just relaxing in all this space. Totally recommend it!
Guest Who Stayed Here Said
The hype
Travelers love the atrium vibe and free parking but are deeply divided by the room quality depending on renovation status.
Reality check
The 'free breakfast' is for elite members only; everyone else pays ~$16-20/person, and the atrium noise travels up to the rooms.
You need a workspace and separate living area
You refuse to pay $40/night for parking
You are attending an event at Chase Stadium or the Executive Airport
Cleanliness & Maintenance
6.5
Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Renovated rooms are generally well-kept; older rooms have reports of missed dust and trash.
Bathroom hygiene: Major divide. Renovated bathrooms are sparkling; old ones have complaints of moldy grout and peeling tubs.
Maintenance: Old rooms suffer from leaky AC units and broken latches. Renovated rooms are solid.
Linens & towels: Standard Sheraton quality (good) in new rooms; reports of wear in older units.
Parking is genuinely free, saving you ~$100 on a 3-day trip compared to the beach.
Wifi is paid in rooms unless you are a Marriott Bonvoy member.
The pool is heated and outdoors, but gets shade early due to the building height.
What to pack
Earplugs for the train horn
Your own streaming stick (TVs in older rooms are dated)

Room Genie
Best picks

Rooms to avoid
East-facing rooms (direct line of sight to train tracks)

Room Request Genie – copy & paste
“I am requesting a NEWLY RENOVATED suite on a high floor, facing West (away from the train tracks). Please ensure I am not assigned an unrenovated unit.”

5 things to know before you go
💡The 'atrium' design looks cool but acts as a megaphone for lobby noise.
💡The unrenovated bathrooms have low toilets and peeling wallpaper—it's a stark contrast to the lobby.
💡You are right next to the Executive Airport (FXE), so you'll see private jets, not just commercial planes.
💡The sofa beds in the living rooms are notoriously thin; ask for extra comforters immediately.
💡Housekeeping is sometimes 'on request' rather than automatic daily service—verify at check-in.
