We stayed at this hotel in January because we thought it would be a good home base to visit the Everglades, and Biscayne National Parks. We were right.I was the perfect place.It was close to good restaurants, the room was clean and plenty big enough.The staff was very friendly and helpful. AND, I used my Best Western points to get one night FREE!

Very clean and nice. Stayed one night on our way down to Key West. Friendly staff. Large rooms, bathrooms. Nice AM breakfast. Close to dining. Fabulous pool area, but the pool was not very clean. Overall a great place to stay.

Stayed here 28th Jan 2012, we were in the area for the Homestead Rodeo but it would be a good location as a launch point for the keys. There were two main negative points that come to mind, firstly there are no safes in the rooms and its noisey, the noise were cars parked outside the rooms arriving late and leaving early also you could hear people in other rooms more than expected, minor negatives are the breakfast wasn`t the best. The plus side is the location which is about as far south you`ll get a room before the Keys, the room was also clean and comfortable.

The hotel was generally OK, but in a pretty crappy area -- we wanted a nice dinner, but Applebee's seemed to be the height of local cuisine. My major complaints about the hotel were three:
* The room's A/C worked, but it came on like a jet engine for about two minutes every twenty. Very noisy.
* The hotel's laundry's dryer vent was into the stairwell going up to the second floor at the end we were staying at. It ran all day and spewed lint and hot, moist air around. The stairwell as open to the outside at top and bottom, so this wasn't intolerable, but it was not reasonable.
* The in-room Internet turned out to be wired and the cable was plugged in between the beds and just barely reached the table where I had to put the computer, and that was tightly enough wedged in that I couldn't get the chair near it without the A/C blowing right on me (see #1, above).
