The staff was excellent, as is typical of my Hilton experiences. However, this particular stay fell short. I arrived late after a day of travel disruptions, hoping for a quick shower and some rest. Upon entering the room, a strong perfume or cologne scent lingered. The bathroom emitted a moldy smell, and the overall cleanliness was lacking. The sheets appeared dirty with hair, the floors were sticky, and the walls seemed spilled on but not properly cleaned. The bathroom caulking was poorly done, and the overall quality disappointed. Despite this, I'll remain a loyal member but regretfully won't be returning to this specific Hilton. I cut my trip short by four days to book another hotel.

Stayed here 3 days week Dec 11-13. I believe the young lady name was Bri the one with the boot on her foot. She greeted our party with a smile, as soon as we walked in the door, she acknowledged us she was very helpful. She was able to get one one of our parties checked in early she was so helpful. She explained breakfast times the bar times things to do in the surrounding area. She demonstrated phenomenal customer service. The hotel was clean our rooms were nice plenty of lighting and mirrors. Breakfast was very nice; to be Continental style. When we visit Fort Lauderdale again I will stay here despite the area looking sketchy. I’m glad we decided to stay because we were going to find another hotel after seeing all the homeless people in the area. This hotel is a hidden gem. Thanks again Shaybri for making our stay so pleasant…
