The contactless process was easier than i thought it would be and when i encountered an issue, there was an immediate response and repair. Pool area was very nice as was the patio.

Good location, average room.
Our suite was clean, with 2 exceptions: the bottom of the shower curtain had mold all along the hem. It needs to be replaced. And when I opened the kitchen window to get some fresh air and get rid of the sickly air freshener smell, the inside window frame was thick with mold. I had to shut the window.
Comfort-wise, one queen bed was firm, but the other was so saggy that my husband nearly rolled into the floor when he moved onto his side.
Last, there is NO SOUND BARRIER between the walls and ceiling floor. We heard every conversation in the adjacent unit, and it sounded like roaming Buffalo in the unit above us. Turns out there were children running back and forth, which kept us up at night and woke us up at 6:00 a.m. our last morning.

Our room was very nice and roomy. It had a lot of natural light. The shower tile needs to be updated. The pool was nice and plenty of lounge chairs and tables with chairs available. Would definitely stay there again
There was a lot of little things that added up to an "average" experience. You kind of get the "minimum" there, if you want clean towels after a few days you have to wash them yourself (and pay to do it). A lot of minor upkeep things in the room would go a long way towards a better experience.
For the price I would say it was average. If it was more expensive I would've given it 2 stars instead of 3. But I would gladly pay 30-40 per night more for a slightly better experience.

Not great, but not terrible...
This motel has only 12 rooms which is awesome. The tables & chairs in the courtyard are Ultra Deck so they are super sturdy and comfortable. The pool was clean and we were able to use it in January. The lungers at the pool are not comfortable and could use to be replaced. Location of the motel was excellent. Our room was quite musty and as an asthmatic this made our stay super uncomfortable for me. I needed to use my rescue inhaler several times a day after sleeping in it all night. The beds are extremely firm and one of ours was basically a taco, you could see how severely the bed bowed in the middle. It was tough to decide how we felt, struggled to get into the room to start, the issues listed above, but Lauderdale By The Sea is amazing and the location of this motel is great.
Great stay, quiet, clean and easy to get to grocery store, convenient store and tourist attractions. Everything needed to cook dish and pot wise was available. I had trouble with door lock but the staff was easily accessible and assisted quickly.
This hotel is ok. The location is everything, it is right near Publix, CVS, Dunkin, Dollar Store, and more. It is also so close to the beach and restaurants. The pool area is nice and clean. The room we stayed in, room 105, had bathroom issues. The tub's grout near the wall chipped terribly and water would enter in and make it's way under the tub. I have no idea how long this has been happening prior to our stay. You could hear the water underneath which was really gross. There were also random holes in and outside of the tub. There was also black mold growing in some of the shower tile's grout. In the bedrooms, the mattresses were very uncomfortable, it was hard to sleep. We were on the first floor so we could hear the people above us. I would recommend trying to get on the second floor if possible. Some rooms on the first floor don't have anyone above them but just in case bring ear plugs.
