The property is old but well maintained. Great location near the port. There is a Publix and several restaurants across the street. Convenient location and great for a short stay.

Fort Lauderdale Marriott North
Rhiannan (?) at the front desk was excellent. Rooms were clean and comfy. Definitely dated. Shower curtain looked worn, sink was cracked. Still, a pleasant 1 night stay for a moderate price.
