Budget hotel that's not as close to the airport as it seems. While it just west of the airport, the only entrance to the airport is on the east side, so it's a 5 mile drive; it's 3.5 miles from the airport. Just about any place is the "good" part of Fort Lauderdale is 5 miles or less. For $50 more off season you could stay on Las Olas at the Riverside Hotel and be walking distance to the best venues in the city.
The hotel has an attached "sports bar" which is currently named Marina 84. It's changes it's name (and management) several times over the past couple of years. It's suitable for grabbing some sports bar quality food, but it's not really a restaurant or a sports bar. They don't have the sports packages so you may not be able to see your team, and they have Karaoke and Live Bands so it may not be a quite evening if that's what you prefer.
The big thing with this hotel is that it's in the middle of nowhere; well maybe the edge of nowhere. There's nothing nearby, and it doesn't look nearly as nice as it does in their photos.
Amenities
They have a motor inn type pool. It's in the middle of the rectangular structure, so the pool is private to the outside world.
They only have WiFi; although they call it high speed internet, it's not. So don't expect to watch Netflix during your stay.
Beware of the professional photos they have of the place; they're all color enhanced and shot at extreme wide angle so everything looks bigger than it is.
A good value if you're on an extreme budge. But no way to spend a vacation if you're not just on your way to a cruise.
