Great Escape Inn - Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, Amerika Serikat

Location was great with shops/restaurants near by and the beach a street away . The beach was really clean and quiet. Bed was a little firm but pillows were great and the overall feel was comfortable.

nice quiet clean and nice pool, close to ocean

Bed was excellent, AC very noise

This was a great find for the price and area. Room was very clean and the beds were clean and comfortable. Kitchenette was a pleasant surprise. They have a pool that, due to weather and schedule, I did not get to use. The front desk is not 24 hours which is fine with me since I only use it for check in/out. They do make special arrangements if you arrive after hours. The two front desk clerks I dealt with were very friendly and helpful. Also, a major concern in another review was that they use old style keys instead of key cards. But with all the issues with key cards, I actually preferred this. The person who commented about this was worried about previous guests making copies and gaining entrance to the room. But, while in the room, there is a deadbolt you can lock which there is no key given for. There is an entrance to the beach right around the corner on Washingtonia. A short trip to the north is a strip mall including a First Watch and a CVS. A short trip to the south takes you to an area with shops and restaurants. I didn't notice any ice or vending machines but these are unnecessary since you have a fridge in the room. I would definitely recommend this place and I plan to return when I am in the area again.

If you are looking for budget friendly lodging this is a great place. Clean rooms, hotel owner introduced himself to us, the staff made us feel welcome.
