Rodeway Inn & Suites Fort Lauderdale Airport & Cruise Port

My room was clean, quiet. It was a smooth check in.

My room 2125 had little flying bugs. I think they were termites. The room was clean but definitely needs an overhaul. I never experienced this in my past stays. I tried calling the front desk and when I expressed the reason, asked to hold and no one came back to the phone. I've stayed there in the past and feel this should be comped. I will reach out to my booking company regarding this matter.

The pool wasn’t bad, and the room was good.

They’re misleading free shuttle service! Claiming they only send a shuttle every hour to airport which never came for us! Complimentary breakfast was a joke.

Enjoyed the restaurant and entertainment.

Didn't like the kayos checking in.

Hôtel pratique avec tout le nécessaire - il est correct

Todo

Todo bien

Room was clean and comfortable

Elevator was dirty

I would cone again

Easy check-in, great rooms, lovely pool, great attached (altho separate enterprise from the hotel) restaurant, and wonderful included breakfast as well as shuttle service to/from airport and cruise port.

The price for the 2 rooms we booked was substantially more than it has been previously, and we've stayed here many, many times, for many, many cruises.

I'm sorry but this place is pretty janky. First, the positives. The airport shuttle and port shuttle were nice. They also have a pretty good little restaurant in the hotel. The bathroom looks pretty nice. This place is designed more like a motel with the doors opening to the outside. The curtains have holes in them. The furniture is really worn. The bathtub drained soooo slowly and almost overflowed while we took our showers. They over use nasty smelling air freshener to cover up musty odors. Their continental breakfast was VERY sparse. This place was not cheap and I expected much more. I'm sorry but I can't recommend this place. I have to come back to Fort Lauderdale in January but won't be staying in.

Would give a zero rating if possible. Stayed here over night (8hrs) just before our Princess cruise. Picked based on location and other reviews. Hotel: run down, dirty, looks like its barely holding on. Check-in: via kiosk and took more than half hour via a kiosk Room: Ok, sheets and towels clean/ok, again needs refurbishing Service: Terrible, not personable Shuttle: to cruise terminal was the worst, chaotic...we had reservations but on loading it seemed first come first serve, so after waiting our turn switched to reservations but now started loading folks from the later reservations not acknowledging the folks waiting and that they are running behind...communication/updates dismal. if you want a Third World experience and that's your style, feel free to stay here. We recommend looking elsewhere for a peaceful experience right before your cruise, otherwise this place totally ruins the vibe.

Staff was racist and stare. Appears to be a sundown town. Also uncharged an extra 160 that was not refunded on a day stay. We were only there for 5 hrs.

We had a great stay before our cruise. If you're looking for a Fort Lauderdale airport hotel or a cruise port hotel near Port Everglades, this is an excellent choice. The room was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well maintained, and the free Wi-Fi worked perfectly throughout our stay. The free airport shuttle made arriving from FLL easy, and the free cruise port shuttle to Port Everglades was convenient and on time, making our travel completely stress-free. The staff was friendly, the check-in process was quick, and everything was exactly as advertised. We will definitely stay here again before our next cruise and would recommend this hotel to anyone needing a clean, convenient Fort Lauderdale airport and cruise port hotel with reliable shuttle service and excellent value.

Shuttle service was great.

Never spoke to a real staff person. All done through virtual. It was noisy and there were bugs in the room.

Las instalaciones deben ser remodeladas

El desayuno no es variado, las empleadas son muy ordinarias y no eran amables eran racistas. Y sonaron unas alarmas ahí de fuego q no nos dejó descansar

The bed was very comfortable

So the employee behind the desk was not very friendly. You advertise on your monitors that we should ask the front desk for more information about the airboat and alligators. When I went to ask the girl, she said she didn’t know anything about it and it would be best to call the places specifically. If this is true, it shouldn’t be advertised to speak to the staff behind the desk for more information. Also, when I called for the shuttle bus from the airport, the same girl told me after I got my luggage to go straight and then take a right. I asked inside outside the airport. I’m not an experienced traveler. I had no idea that I was supposed to find a letter associated with the shuttle. So I was standing in the wrong place to receive the shuttle. She was not helpful at all. It was like she didn’t wanna be there.

Room was clean, bed was comfortable.

The virtual check in was an absolute shambles. It was hard to understand, glitchy and the majority of the people I spoke to didn't speak good English.

Everything went well and shuttle service was very good, rooms were clean but simple and it was nice to have a restaurant and bar on site.

The rooms were very nice and comfortable. Attached restaurant was also a plus

NA

Court yard

Floors are very dirty in room

No Booking.com eu reservei uma diária com Wi-Fi grátis incluso. Paguei a diária adiantado. Chegando lá me pediram US$ 107.00 de garantia. Na saída, recebi US$ 100.00 de volta. Ao perguntar sobre os US$ 7.00 fui informada de que era por usar o Wi-Fi.

Convenient

The bar scene and clientele. Staff was not sociable. Only person that was professional was through IVR. Was hard to understand him though

Shuttle guys are very nice

The waiting in line to check in on a kiosk. The front desk are a little mean and seemed like they were bothered to sell us drinks from their refrigerator. Shuttle service was great.

Proche de l'aéroport, restauration sur place , piscine chaude , bon rapport qualité prix

Rien

The complimentary shuttle and driver were very good.

More pleasant employees. One female employee who checked us in appeared to dislike her job

Convenience and the pool

I did not like the check in kiosk. It was difficult to hear and understand. I prefer a desk clerk

This hotel was not at all what we expected. The staff (for the most part) were miserable and unhelpful. Two standout staff were pleasant and helpful - the new shuttle driver and the doorman at the breakfast buffet. The initial impression was not good. The check in process was done through a kiosk with a live agent, while four other staff sat behind a glass wall. The beverages were locked up and the grounds were dark and did not feel safe. The rooms were clean and decent, however the entire one wall was window which added to the unsafe feeling. Every noise above and beside sounded like they were in our room with us. Checkout was much smoother than check in, but they insisted on checking our room before reimbursing our deposit. Annoying but fine. We would never stay here again. The evening shuttle driver from the airport was completely miserable and rude to the passengers. When we got in he cranked the stereo, and never say two more words. Agitated and not at all friendly. On the other hand, the day shuttle driver was wonderful. Smiley and friendly - very helpful and really helped to send us off In the right vacation mode.

The listing said it could accommodate trailers but when we got there they charged an extra $65 plus said we couldn’t keep the boat trailer there even though there were only 2 other vehicles in thst lot. I cried at check in

What i said above. The clerk of the desk was not clear, did not speak very good English, and it took about an hour to get everything straightened out, causing the rest of my party to be very upset with me so it was not a good start to the night plus by the time they were finished raking us over the coals. The restaurant was closed even though on the site and the signage and reception said that it was opened until midnight and we ended up eating dinner that was brought in from a pizza place at 1 AM.

Transfer grátis para aeroporto

Sujeira no aparelho de ar condicionado

The shuttles from the airport and to the cruise ship port

Breakfast could have been a little better

Menos mi el microondas servía

El check in con la máquina atrasa el proceso éramos 4 cuartos y tenían 2 empleados en el counter y ninguno nos atendió. No me gustó

Motel location is great, rooms are clean, pool and bar are nice..... now..... shuttle service going to fort lauderdale is fine , but don't expect them to pick you up, because you will wait for hours, ! We paid 30pp each way to take us to Miami cruise port and pick us up, so 120 R/T.... they never came and picked us up, we had to call a Uber after waiting for 3 hours, tried calling them 4 times, I finally got thru to someone at front desk and they acted like they had no idea they were supposed to pick us up, but they had no problem taking our money !! And, a Uber was only 60.00 from Miami to fort lauderdale Airport and hotel charged is 120.00, so, don't pay them a dime to go to Miami, just Uber yourselves !

Shuttle from airport + shuttle to cruise ship

Room was mediocre Breakfast too crowded and did not taste good Shuttle from airport slow to arrive. Had to wait out side about 35-40 minutes

We booked a cruise out of Fort Lauderdale and needed a place to stay for 2 nights before we sailed. We made the unforgivable mistake of choosing this hotel. We arrived just before midnight. The lobby was so full of suitcases, you couldn't tell who owned which ones. Each person who approached the front desk seemed to be required to tell their life's story, it seemed to take so long. BUT, we waited, and waited ... and waited until it was finally our turn, only to be told that, since we had a reservation, we couldn't check in at the counter, we had to use the ATM-like machine in the corner. Now, there is absolutely no signage in the lobby to this effect, and I guess it's just too much trouble for the staff to actually let you know you don't have to wait. We finally got to our room about an hour after we arrived. It was a ludicrous wait, and a ludicrous way to be treated. Now, this place may have been pretty good .. .maybe 30 years ago, but nobody's done any real maintenance in a very, very long time. Our hotel room door didn't lock properly when closed. I didn't discover that until I came back one time to find I didn't need the key to get in. The only way to lock the door was to slam it about 5 times, checking each time to see if it worked. I went to the front desk to advise them. The young lady behind the desk answered 3 phone calls while I stood waiting, without acknowledging my existence, yelled very loudly - unintelligibly - several times to someone in the back room, then finally asked me what I wanted. I explained about the broken door. She rolled her eyes ... seriously ... but did not offer a solution. The restaurant is truly awful. I waked around the neighbourhood looking for an alternative, but there simply isn't anything, unless you have a car. BUT on two separate occasions, when I asked the locals for a restaurant recommendation nearby, their only recommendation was to stay away from the restaurant at the Rodeway. It's that bad. They do offer a free shuttle to the dockyard. BUT, once again, the staff will let you know they're doing you a VERY big favour by giving you the most basic information. Finally on the morning we were to leave, we found a crowd of about 200 people waiting for shuttles, all wondering where they should stand (after being told they couldn't sit in the lobby). So, we all stood around some guy showed with a microphone, yelling at everybody for being in exactly the wrong place ... even though there was no indication of where we should actually be. The busses finally showed up. but had to compete for room in front of the doors with the new hotel guests arriving in taxis and Ubers ... it was absolute chaos. I did manage to get onto one of the busses, and am still surprised that it was the correct one, because there was nobody willing or apparently capable, of answering even simple questions. You couldn't pay me enough to stay here again.

After a long day of flying, we arrived about 11pm. It was terribly busy. The staff took an incredible amount of time with each check in. There was no organization. After an hour, we were served. When we said that we had a reservation, she sternly directed us to an electronic check in device! We could have done that much earlier had we known. After much confusion, we finally got checked in by the device (her English was very difficult). The room was fine and quite clean. Liked the restaurant - nice staff there. The next day we realized that our door would not really lock. I went to the FD and after explaining my problem through a plexiglass hole, I looked up and staff member was on the phone. I waited and when he finished, he also had a call on hold. I left and felt that they could discover the door problem on their own. Sad.

Good shuttle to cruise port

Video check in person was not friendly

Dry nice pool and garden area

Bkfst area tight and lobby small

Shuttle to the cruise port was great!

Breakfast was barely edible. Room really needs updating.

Convenient shuttle service

Front desk service was terrible. We were assigned a room in the back forty and after a long trek to find it, the room had already been used with dirty linens everywhere. It was a hassle and took way too long to get a different room assigned. No apology from the people behind the service desk. Would not recommend.

The attached Tavern was good value.

We waited 3 hours for the shuttle to pick us up from the cruise terminal.

We stayed here the night before and night after a cruise, and left our car here while we were gone. The rooms were clean but definitely budget in terms of maintenance. The free breakfast was horrible. We didn't even go to it the day we left. Our car was just as we left it.

It was satisfactory. It had an on site restaurant with basically bar food. And drinks. I felt safe. Our stay was based on the transportation to and from the airport to from the ship. And that was great.

When was a little old and out of date but that didn’t bother me. I actually appreciate older properties that make it easier to get around. To me it was like Classic, Florida or California tropic.

Everything

Pool needs to be cleaned

The Marine 84 Restaurant was delicious for dinner during both stays. Shuttle staff was very impressive... friendly and helpful and seemed to love what they were doing. Thank you SO much!

The first stay, our room floor was filthy. The second stay, breakfast didn't offer much for diabetic/gluten-free diets. Neither stay accommodated our request for extra towels.

Proximité avec le port

Très vieillissant, simple vitrage ? Bruit route ++ , draps suspects (taches), protection de lit visible ( traces pipi)

Close to the airport and cruise port.

$40 fee to check in early

Our stay was convenient with a smooth check-in and excellent shuttle service to and from the airport and cruise port. The airport pickup driver came across as rude on the phone, but was much nicer in person, and overall staff were friendly and informative. The property felt welcoming and relatively clean.

However, finding our room was difficult, and noise from early pool use, foot traffic, and loud shuttle announcements made it hard to get rest.

Whatever you do DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL. They advertise free hotel shuttle pickup. I called initially and was told 35 mins. I called again after 50 mins and was told the driver already came but didn't see us which was a complete lie as security confirmed no one had come and we were in the right spot. Had to call 4 more times after being told 5-10 more mins and got a different person each time who made up a different excuse. I understand delays happen but to blatantly lie is unacceptable. I asked to speak to a manager and was told they don't have one available. There's a reason the reviews are so bad so don't get roped on with the free shuttle promise. Overall a lousy hotel with awful service. Will never book again

Que estaba limpio y tranquilo

Que el recepcionista no habla Español

Shuttle from airport and to cruise port. Inexpensive

Strong smell of cleaner air n lobby

Super friendly staff, and the entire place including the room was clean and beautiful.

n/a

Very good

I liked everything

I made the reservation for my family, Some how I only put my Nieces name down. Tiffany at reception would not let me check in because my niece was not there yet, and I would have to wait in the lobby or somewhere until she arrived at 9:30pm. The payment was made with my credit card and I had all the paper work. I asked her since there were 2 rooms on the reservation, could she just give me a room she said "yes for $199, but she could give me a discount of $8.00, which I felt was an insult. I left and stayed someplace else. Tiffany, never showed any interest in helping to resolve the situation. I made 2 reservations here and was not able to cancel my stay on April 13th and receive my money back. so we stay here on the 13th. I will never stay here again and will tell any one who ask me about it: PLEASE DO NOT MAKE A RESERVATION HERE. Although, it is convenient for a place to stay when cruising out of Fort Lauderdale which is what we were doing.

Breakfast was fine.

Only one elevator

The pool was nice, rooms were nice

Some employees not the friendliest, breakfast wasn’t restocked much. Restaurant crazy expensive with nothing in walking distance

Location

Bed sheets were not changed and had someone else’s blood on them, people being loud and could not sleep

Shuttle to port

Comfortable, friendly staff, hotel had a shuttle from the airport to the hotel and also shuttle to port terminal

Stayed before a cruise! Perfect! Greeting was nice. Farewell was equally as nice. Great room awesome restaurant bar attached. Awesome shop selling anything you need that yopickmfrom airport makes

Nada

Pesima atención, su personal andan de mal humor los cuartos huelen mal esta horrible el lugar nunca volviera a este lugar.

Nice basic room. Ac worked well. Friendly staff.

Room by stairwell , noisy plus pizza delivery by pounding ( not knocking) on our door ? No pizza ordered ? Shuttle registration wasn’t recorded? We booked shuttle on arrival . I guess double check everything.

Gutes Preis Leistungs Verhältnis. Etwas älter, genügend sauber, freundlich gestaltet mit vielen Pflanzen. Gut für 1-2 Nächte als Zwischenhalt, gutes Internet.

The rooms had been renovated since our last stay 3 years ago. Loved the shower.

The check in process is a nightmare.

Good manager. polite and atencious
