Here was what was good about this hotel: location, clean towels, clean sheets. The fridge was great too once I found it (hidden inside a dresser?!) Heres the ugly part: YEARS of dust on every picture, mirror, behind tv; there must have been 300 ppl's DNA all of our room & the entire hotel. Amd thr fact the each of our 3 days there- the elevator died. […] So forna person with 2 broken legs from not even 2 yrs ago- the 2nd floor room was a horrible hike. There were literally holes with exposed wires in atleast 4 places I saw, & the plaster walls were falling apart. Oh and they have TAPED the room numbers on the walls, I could have played tricks on ppl all night long if I wanted. Sheldon hotel was a major disappointment. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Location -Cheap remodel - not worth price"
Remodel is being done on the cheap - poor paint job, instead of encasing wiring into the conduit in walls or at least in track on wall - left dangling. Towels and bathmats should have been discarded months ago- skimpy soap for bath and hands, soap dish on sink - stupid. Did furnish "old" beach towels, umbrella & chair for beach and has free parking. […] Persons at desk - not too pleasant at all - Appear to be funding remodel with use of hotel during remodeling, Hall floors broken tiles, ceiling tiles broken, some old some new tiles. Bed and bedding were very good. NO directory for TV stations asked, do not have. Lobby empty except for desk - few chairs along walls in lobby. If not for the central location would have been a terrible stay. Not a place to stay now and maybe not ever if remodel continues on the cheap. Bill Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"good location on broadwalk"
It has a long way to go .. our room was noisy from A/C units right outside window . The room floor and bathroom floor were not cleaned . Hair from previous guests was on bathroom floor . Good for one night stay , but DO NOT make this a long term vacation .Looks like Rooms were furnished with garage sale items .Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The hotel is under construction with areas of the hotel all torn up. The Lobby had no appeal. You had to be given an Iron & Iron Board to take up to your room. The TV was very dated. Was glad I was only staying for one night. Wouldn't stay any longer. Desk clerk was the only staff person working and refuse my request to preview the room. Never to stay […] there ever again.

"Lacking--"
If you want location--this is the hotel. If you want creature comforts, look elsewhere. Maybe after construction is complete, we would recommend.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Ok for the price"
Location is great, lots of bars and restaraunts around. Shower barely put out enough water to get wet and when I mentioned it at the front desk all they said was they didn't have any other rooms. Beach is great, for the price I'd consider going back if I couldn't find anything better.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"not what you pay for"
no staff with etiquette, plumbing is an issue, the website sells it but its not what it is,a plus it has parking there is no bell man if hotel under construction sell for less rateGenuine Expedia guest review
"If you spend time IN the room, you won't like this"
Location - As good as it gets. Period. The hotel and room itself is dilapidated. Turned on the shower, rusty water came out. Everything is ridiculously old - except - for new windows. Go figure. A/C worked good too, gotta throw that in there. Oceanfront room view is fantastic. The rooms are nothing to write home about, however, the hallways are dreadful. […] Dreadfully noisy. If you pushed hard enough you could open a locked door. Seriously. If/when they are done with the renovations, I might consider returning. But as-is, never again.

"Right on the beach"
Lacks amenities. If you're looking for no frills this is it!! Could've been less expensive for the quality of the place.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hotel Sheldon, Fort Laudrdale, FL"
The hotel was a disappointment is all respects. Diffidently not worth the cost. Renovation will not be completed under current management. It is obvious there is a cash follow problem. The sad story is it could be a real fun place to stay. Stay clear of this Hotel. We will not be backGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Great location. Staff was helpful. The hotel is being renovated. We enjoyed our stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great location, poor hotel."
The hotel was very run down. Hotel staff was very pleasent and we liked that they offered free beach towels, chairs and umbrellas. The location is great, right in the middle of the broadwalk; however, disappointed with the hotel.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Sheldon Hotel"
When we booked nobody told us the hotel was being remodeled. ,Having said that, the rooms look nothing like the pictures -- they are tiny. There are no phones in the room or DVD player. The floors are not carpeted and all the sand inevitable you bring from the beach stay on the floor and on your feet and then on your bed. What was nice, was the included […] parking and they offer umbrellas and very shagy towels. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"WARNING! Expedia Rents Rooms Under Construction."
The hotel is under rennovations. However, they have stopped and are not currently working on the hotel. As such, the hotel is in in a construction zone. The price of the hotel with that is overpriced. The hotel entrance is also right off the main street. There is no place to park by the entrace while you register. As such, you have to park a bit away […] from the front entrance and walk with your bags in hand to the front door. Ideally, they would have someone at the front to help with bags so that one would not have to do this. Also, one has to walk from the parking lot past other residential properties to get to the hotel. It looks like the building was in foreclosure, is in foreclosure, or the owner ran out of money while rennovating. Sure the hotel is on the beach, but too expensive for a hotel that the owner has stopped rennovation and has left it in an unfinished condition. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Cheap but..."
Great location, but hotel condition and overall quality was poor. Absolutely not a hotel for the wife and kids. I was there for a guys weekend and it barely met that expectation. The problem is that are not enough mid-priced options nearby...Genuine Expedia guest review
"Unsatisfied"
Nice location, but the hotel was under construction and it was not what we thought it was going to look like...the pictures online were incorrect.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Not a nice hotel"
The Hotel Sheldon is in poor condition. I felt like I was staying at the YMCA in an inner-city. The hotel is in need of major renovation. DIrt was everywhere inside. I had a guest come over & I was embarrassed that I was staying there. I knew ahead of time that it was being renovated, but had no idea that it was such an ugly hotel & in such bad shape. […] The prices need to be cut in half...it is currently a waste of money. I won't stay there again. The noise of jack hammers & grinders all day drove me crazy. Dirt & dust from the renovations was in the air constantly. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hotel Sheldon - Ft. Lauderdale"
We knew that the hotel had been under renovation; however, we expected it to be complete by the time of our stay. From the non-functioning elevator to the unpleasant arousal due to construction outside of our window, we were very disappointed. The price and location drew us to the hotel...unfortunately, we got what we paid for...and less.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Hotel Sheldon- spend money elsewhere"
Arriving late at night, the hotel wasn't easily found and the exterior of the building was in shambles due to the remodel. Upon entering the lobby, found the desk attendant to be asleep. Once he woke up, I checked in and because of the renovations had to lug my large suitcase up the stairs because the elevator was boarded up. I had to walk around the […] entire second floor to another set of stairs on the opposite side to get to the third floor, which has not been updated in quite some time. The whole third floor was NOT impressive, to say the least. My room was dirty and even the towels looked like they had not been washed, so I had to use some clean clothes out of my suitcase to dry myself off. There was no deadbolt or safety lock, only a doorknob with a push button that popped out if someone jiggled the knob from the other side, which I was not happy about. The "complimentary wireless access" I read about did not work. I was only there for one night, luckily, because I could not wait to get out of there. For the price, you would think it would have been a whole lot nicer! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Living in a construction zone"
Hotel under new management for past year. Site says doing renovations till end of Dec. Don't believe them - hotel going under major renewal - will take at least another year. Woke up to jack hammer outside our window in morning. Stay clear - don't send anybody else to this hotel is you have any conscience.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hotel en remodelacion"
Hotel de muy mala calidad para el precio.- La ubicacion es buena, pero el servicio malo. Desde hacen 2 años que se encuentra en remodelacion , segun lo que me informaron y tiene para 2 años mas.-Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Sur la fiche de l'hôtel,on indique chambre de luxe avec balcon, il n'y avait pas de balcon dans notre chambre, pour le luxe il n'y en a pas au contraire, il n'y avait que de vieux meubles, pour le réfrigérateur il fallait mettre une brochure pour le garder à niveau, sinon la porte ouvrait toute seule, un seul et très gros fauteuil pour s'asseoir à table […] et qui prend toute la place, j'ai demandé une deuxième chaise, on nous a donné une chaise d'ordinateur à roulette, au moins elle ne prenait pas autant de place, la porte de la toilette ne fermait pas tellement il y avait de couches de peinture, mais pas aux bons endroits car les devants de la porte étaient complètement défraîchi.La climatisation partait continuellement, un ajustement s'impose sûrement, de plus le bruit du système ressemblait au moteur d'un camion, bref à éviter. Un plus on a une belle page devant, on a plusieurs choix de restaurants mais on dirait que la nourriture est cuisinée par des enfants, ex: toast et oeufs froids, pain à hotdog steamé mais toasté mais froid.

Cet hotel est ehntravaux et il ne devrait pas etre ouvert...pour y rentrer on est obligé de passer sous les baches et echafaudages à l'interieur meme de l'hotel du hall!! La reception a été relayée dans un couloir, et n'apporte donc aucun service...juste un telephone et un ordinateur dans un coin de couloir. Seule la chambre etait propre et confotable, […] et le ménage fait tous les jours. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"junkie hotel"
Overpriced, overrated in an area with a lot of homeless people and junkies. The breakfast is a joke; a cookie and a coffee in the small reception room.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hotel Sheldon, aan het strand van Hollywood, Fl."
Hotel zit midden in een verbouwing, zegt op site dat wifi in het hele hotel werkt, niet dus, oude kamers, losliggende leidingen, weinig tot geen comfort. Wel een hele mooie locatie.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"nur die Lage ist sehr gut"
Das Hotel wird wohl zur Zeit umgebaut, was aber nicht gestört hat. Es liegt direkt an der Promenade/ am Strand. Die Fenster kann man nur auf "kipp" stellen. Die Toiletten-Spülung pfeift, so dass das ganze Hotel wach wird. Die Toilettentür lässt sich nicht schließen. Positiv ist nur die Lage des Hotels und das nette Personal.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
