B Ocean Resort Fort Lauderdale Beach
The staff is very rude and don’t do their jobs, the pool was super dirty

Fontainebleau Miami Beach
We love staying at this hotel, but this time TV did not work and no one fixed it or changed during our stay of 4 days. The maintenance guy came fairly quickly. Said he'd have to exchange the tv and we never heard back. There was also no rooms to change it to. Otherwise, the service was great.

The staff were very rude! All they were worried about was the F1 race and dignitaries that were coming in and not about anyone else the weekend we stayed.
