“Overall a nice place, but lack of guests takes the fun away.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 February 2011

people found this review helpful

This is the second year in a row that I stayed here. On the plus side the rooms are large, nicely furnished, and clean. The pool area is beautiful. The staff is generally friendly, although some are overly stuffy in their demeaner given that this is a 50 year old 2 story motel in a so so area of Lauderdale, not the Plaza in New York City! The beds are very hard, and the linens are lower grade than at a La Quinta. The big letdown on both stays was the total deadness of the facility. To me the point of staying at a gay hotel is to have social interaction around the pool area. When the hotel is dead there is no interaction..hence we may as well have stayed at a La Quinta, and paid about half the price for a similar quality experience. Last year the hotel was dead dead..the staff claimed they were fairly busy but it was an obvious lie. This year we called and asked how busy they were before agreeing to come there the same day (Friday). We were told they were 50% occupied, which would be about 15 rooms rented out. Upon arrival the place was again dead. Virtually no people around. Come nightfall it was really obvious that about 6-8 rooms were rented out...not even close to 50%. Saturday and Sunday night were dead as well. The few other people we talked to during our stay were dissapointed the deadness of the place...and were not pleased and/or amused about how the staff so obviously lies about occupancy of the hotel. I ask one of the cleaning people about it, and even they were very evasive about how few guests were staying there. For the record the Alacazar, Worthington, and Cabanas were sold out the same weekend. I doubt I chance the Schubert again. They have dug a hole for themselves by trying to charge so much that that the place is often semi-deserted, and that makes it no fun to stay there. They really need to get more realistic on the pricing vs. demand equation at various times of the year, and try to keep the place more occupied. It is a shame that such an overall nice place is ruined by the lack of guests.

“Nice with drawbacks”

Nice property, nice pool, rooms are good overall but if you have a room with a connecting door to another room it will be like people are staying right in your room. Way too noisy.

“Pleasant, though a bit pricey”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 October 2010

My partner and I spent a night at the Schubert before a cruise and had an acceptable time. We arrived very early (10 AM) and were immediately shown to our room by the friendly and helpful front desk person. The room was clean and pleasant. There were only two other guests at the resort the day/night we spent there.

The pool and hot tub were perfect: clean and not over-chlorinated.

The only drawback was that the hotel was twice the cost of similar (non-gay) accommodations (and since there were only two other gay people there - we should have stayed in a "straight" hotel.) I think next time I would ask how many other guests were staying there and base my decision on that.

“The Schubert Resort is an unpleasant experience.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2010

When I arrived and got my room it had a musty smell and as I did not want to smell mildew for the next three days, I asked for another room. I was made to feel like an annoyance by the snippy manager who has the attitude he was being made to do extra work and that the customer is never right. He said the room next to it, which is identical, has the same musty smell and I would have to move to a room that was an upgrade. I moved my belongings to this room and then went to the desk where he told me this room was an extra $40 a night. I felt I should not have been charged this extra amount as all I wanted was a room without a mildew smell. I would say 50-75% of all the rooms at this "resort" were empty which is mind boggling since it was fourth of July weekend and all the other motels were basically full and required a minimum 3 day stay. I guess that should have been the tip off. Also this place is really showing its age. After driving 3 hours from the Cocoa Beach area I was tired and did not care to pack up and look in vain for another motel so I reluctantly paid the extra money but crossed this off my list of places to stay in Ft Lauderdale. I sent an email to the manager expessing my experience there and my having to pay for the upgrade and felt that I should be given a credit for the extra $40 a night I had to spend to get a room without a mildew smell and got a very unapologetic and snippy email back. So very unbusiness-like.

“What a Nightmare”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 September 2009

people found this review helpful

Let me tell you how disapointing this hotel was. My partner and I came to Fort Lauderdale for a wekend and stayed in this place and after the first night we moved somewhere else. I sugested we stayed there after watching the movie "Another Gay Sequel" and the room we got smelled like it hasnt been open and vented in months. There were dead ants in the windows, the sink and in the so called "kitchenette". When I checked in I went to take a look at the pool and it was half empty with green water, yesgreen water.... The front desk guy said that they have been working on the pool to get it filled up and it was suposed to be ready for human enjoyment by 10pm that night. There is no way in hell i would have swam in that grose swamp hole. The hotel was totally empty and since we had a late checkout due to our flight, after an hour of checking in there was no one to take our complaints. We took off and decided to spend the night at the local hilton until we found a decent gay place to stay. I wouldnt recomend this hotel for anyone who want to have a decent and cleaner vacation.
