Sea Beach Plaza

No Frills

No Frills, but worth the rate. Large room with small kitchenette. Conveniently located close to the beach. Considering your at the beach all day and just need a place to put your head down at night, this place is it!

Yuck!

My 5 year old walked into the room and said "this is the worst hotel ever"! She immediately went into the bathroom and used it, only to find no toilet paper...anywhere. Nothing on the roll or under the sink....My husband went in search of toilet paper, and came back with one roll, which was given to him at the office with the comment "sorry, our room cleaning staff is not very good". While I could go on for days about the horrible condition of this room, I think that little scenerio is telling enough!

Cubic Zirconia in the Rough...

The location of this hotel is great. just a walking distance from ft lauderdale beach and all the shops and bars. Parking is a bit of a problem so unless u plan to leave the car at the hotel, dont expect to find a parking space at night. The utensils in the room were filthy and the a/c vent was broken so it practically was blowing on the floor. Basically this is a hotel to sleep in and nothing more.

Needs better customer service and cleanliness

I wasn't expecting it to be the best hotel out there. At first, it was actually what I thought, but when they welcomed me with a "you better have a reservation because we have no rooms available", it left much to be desired. The last room was indeed mine. I had asked for two separate beds, and they gave me one king because they didn't have any rooms left. They did not try to make up for it in any way and it was already around 11pm. Oh well, I had to stay on the same bed with some relatives. The room smelled like cigarettes all around, which I had specified I wanted non-smoking. The hotel rep said they had no control over it when I complained through hotels.com, and not only that but they lied to the hotels.com rep when I complained and they called the hotel to ask what happened. The Sea Beach Plaza hotel rep (a lady) told hotels.com that they offered me another room but that I declined their offer, which is false. A male attendant actually checked me in and I saw that he was alone, there were no rooms left, and they did not give me another choice because they had no rooms left. Oh well. At least I thought I could have a good night sleep. Didn't happen either, there was a lot of noise from outside, there were kids making noise, people downstairs, next door, and even noises around the floor and walls. I didn't want to find out what these noises were, but it stopped when I turned the lights on. Anyway, I will not stay at this place again, and I would not recommend unless they improve their customer service and the maintenance of their rooms.

wont be back

This hotel needs a sign out front for per half hour rate. Even though the room was clean, it smelt of stale cigerettes. The bed was comfy but small.

Echos of Better Days In a Bygone Era

I am conflicted in writing this review because I don't want to sound misleading when I say that this hotel fulfills its purpose. It is a kitchy place by the beach where a group of friends can just hang loose and have a convenient place to sleep and get a hot shower. Not every Florida vacation experience has to be romantic, idyllic and luxurious. This place is perfect for a bunch of college kids on a road trip, or a family of six with lots of little kids. The room was clean, kitchen complete with working fridge, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, and long kitchen counter. Our bathroom ceiling did have a small area where it was cracked and buckeling, the shower fawcett was broken, the linens were well worn, the remote contol did not work, the vertical blinds were falling apart, there was a broken clock on the wall, all things that could be fixed if the owners read this review. On the flip side, there is plenty of storage space and a pleasant walk to the beach. It just depends on who you are -if you are not honeymooning, or you're not coming from the safe environs of the country club lifestyle, then save yourself the luxury tax and plop down at this low key motel. You'll have fun!

Great room for the money

The Sea Beach Plaza was very nice. The owner and people working there aim to please. They keep the rooms very clean and smelling nice. It was very homey and right around the corner from the beach. I will go back there again.

Needs Improvement

I would not stay at this hotel again, not even for a quick overnight when I just need a bed and a shower.

Great price for the location

Got what I expected.

You get what you pay for.

The hotel is a little run down but it is cheap, across the street from the beach. Like I said though you get what you pay for. Not a bad hotel in all.

Needs updating and improvement

There was a huge dead bug on the floor when we moved in. The room was right out of the 1950's. Tile needed to be replaced in the bathroom. Bed was intolerably uncomfortable. Luckily we didn't spend a lot of time there. The whole block whould be leveled.

Good value, but for 1 night only!

As we did, this was a good value for 1 night, awaiting a cruise from the nearby docks. For a lengthyt stay, I would not recommend.
