I like this motel. It isn't big, quite small, yet, comfortable and quiet. Basic cable, wifi, shower stall in bathroom, near busline, if you are able to walk a mile to 3 miles, there is a Starbucks nearby, a FreshMarket (Wholefoods), nearby, a handful of Hispanic restaurants, there is a gym down the street, although I don't know why one...

What more can you ask for in a good value hotel? The room was spotlessly clean with a comfy bed and good linen. A small fridge and microwave were pretty handy - there was a big TV showing the usual american junk and the WIFI was quick and reliable. The bathroom was a little 'bijou' but perfectly appointed - with... More

My wife and I recently visited Florida and wanted to spend a couple of nights in Fort Lauderdale. We booked the Tropicana Motel for two nights based on Trip Advisor saying that the accomodations were clean, beds comfortable and area was secure, plus Chuck and Robert that work there were exceptionally nice and helpful. Trip Advisor comments were right on.... More

Slightly older motel, but kept in pristine condition. Rooms are equipped with micro wave. Queen size bed. Free parking space for your car. A little bit difficult to find due to the road work. In the morning you get free coffee and juce,nice. Good value for money.

Selecting this place was a mistake. It's on a busy Rt 1 in a dicey neighborhood. The room was small, dark and a little creepy. The motel had a little tattered outdoor seating area with plastic chairs in the middle of a small empty lot next to the parking--overlooking Rt 1. The place reminded me of the movie Bagdad Cafe...

I stayed here 5 nights and 4 days; 2 days I worked on my laptop and the internet in my room. The Florida Gold Coast is dotted with small, inexpensive motels ranging from awful to great value. The Tropicana Motel is clean, comfortable, well-maintained, and inexpensive. The internet service is faster and more reliable than that I pay NZ$100/month for... More

Stay here if you get a good price - we paid below forty dollars. For this price, the quality is right. Don't expect much - you are not paying much. The location is okay regarding accessibility, it sits right on one of the major roads running through Ft. Lauderdale. That too is the downside - you will hear traffic when... More
