HMSDingy Posted September 3, 2007 #1 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Anybody heard of or stayed here? We're just looking for a one night stay pre-cruise that offers free shuttle to the port. Nothing too fancy as long as its clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bequia Posted September 4, 2007 #2 Share Posted September 4, 2007 If it's the one in Ft Lauderdale on State Road 84, take a pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bequia Posted September 4, 2007 #5 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Ditto...take a pass, you can do a lot better. Try to avoid anything on State Road 84.....some of it is our "bad section" of town..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck we just want a decent room with, preferably, complimentary suttle to port everglades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bequia Posted September 4, 2007 #8 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Decent location within walking distance to shops and restaurants. Have read complaints about road noise if your on the street side, other then that should be fine for a night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMSDingy Posted September 4, 2007 Author #9 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Decent location within walking distance to shops and restaurants. Have read complaints about road noise if your on the street side, other then that should be fine for a night. Thanks. Since our cruise is in November, how soon should I book a room? Even though we've crusied 3 times, we' ve never flown in a day before, always been lucky with the flights. This time we'll take the extra day and get to the port in a relaxed mood.

HMSDingy Posted September 5, 2007 Author #17 Share Posted September 5, 2007 You have to be a member of a non-profit organization with 500 members! Sorry...should of done a little research first. I called the hotel directly and all I have to do is present proof of residence. The hotel offers free shuttle from the airport and to the port.

Chan_T Posted September 5, 2007 #18 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Also, you may want to check the Hampton Inns in the area. They are usually reasonably priced and provide decent, clean accommodations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hotel offers free shuttle from the airport and to the port. We've stayed there several times pre-cruise. Decent place. Be sure to sign up for the shuttle as soon as you get there. It fills fast.
