“If you put make-up on a pig, still a pig.”

After reading the reviews at tripadvisor, I decided I stayed 1 night @ this hotel. Thank God it was only 1 night. The hotel is having a lot of traffic thanks to the reviews from this site. These reviews DO NOT reflect the quality of this hotel and they are WAY overrated. The hotel probably had a recent remodel but the rooms are still old and musty. After all remwmber this is still a Holiday Inn.

Dear Sir/Madam

So sorry that you didn't like the hotel you stayed in. We are positive that you are mistaken on the location. We just opened June 10, 2010. We didn't put paint on or make-up. The building was here for a few yrs, but the entire inside was distroyed and remodeled, walls and all......The Holiday Inn Express value all our guests and appreciate all our reviews. We take pride in the cleanliness and all brand new furniture, carpets, walls and fixtures.

Please keep us in mind for the future stays here in Fort Lauderdale. We are located on Commercial Blvd.
Sincerely
Jo Jean & Staff

We booked this hotel prior to our cruise from the Port Everglades. What a beautiful hotel. Very clean, and we were upgraded to a suite. Comfortable bed, the breakfast in the morning was your typical Holiday Inn breakfast, but still very good. Great experience at this hotel. Very comforting like home.

We booked this particular hotel because we had a car rental and it was fairly close to the airport and car rental return. The hotel does not have a shuttle, but if you have your own transportation it certainly is worth it to stay here. Very quiet.

We were lucky enough to stay at The Holiday Express that made you feel as though we were home. Each day you were greated by a staff that knew us and asked if they could do anything to make the stay any better. The staff always had smiles from Mrs Allen to the our housekeeper.

The condition of the hotel was the best that I've had ever stayed in. Anyone who had worked in this hotel, must of been the best in their field because it all looked perfect.

I have stayed in Marriotts that didn't make you feel as good as this Hotel did

“Fantastic Pre-Cruise Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Super friendly staff and a great, clean and comfortable hotel. We stayed here for 2 nights pre-cruise and chose the Holiday Inn mostly for its price, sharing a room with 2 queen beds amongst the four of us. With a car, this hotel is only a 20 minute drive from the Port, and only a few minutes drive to restaurants and shopping. They have a nice pool and a great hot breakfast including a really cool "pancake making machine".
