    Rented a cabana for $58 right in front of hotel and Margaritaville. Awesome day!
    Angela R.

    The room was clean and updated. We had a microwave and fridge which was a pleasant surprise. Love the location on the Broadwalk. Next to Margaritaville and really good restaurants and bars which offered live music every night and good food choices. We will be staying here again.

    This is your complimentary bottle opener located in the bathroom that appears to have been painted over since the 1960s.

    Hotel Sheldon: You pay for what you get. And what you get at Hotel Sheldon is location. If you want to be on the boardwalk next to a Margaritaville Resort, and want to stay relatively cheap...stay here. Hotel Sheldon is just like booking a room on Duval Street in Key West. Its all about the location. Our room had no view, and we knew that. However I really should have considered the measurements of our room. I think their website even posts the measurements. Anyway, after a king bed, there isn't much room for anything. Upon checking in at night, the front desk clerk seemed to take joy ignoring us until she was finished doing whatever she does behind that desk. There was no one else in the lobby. Just be prepared to be ignored for a half minute before she says "what can I do for you." The day person was much more friendly and accomodating. There are beach towels in the lobby and an umbrella and 2 chairs in each room. In conclusion, if you are looking for a bed and a cheap place to sober up from a long hard night...just like on Duval Street...Hotel Sheldon may be your golden ticket.

    They say you can tell the age of a city not by the new buildings but by the ones that have been around and stood the test of time. This place is an older building that has been refreshed. Although the lobby and hallways feel dated, our room was a beautiful blend of the old with the new. This hotel is perfectly placed by the beach! The Sun rises right in front of it. The gorgeous beach is the front lawn. The building itself, although older, felt safe. You know it has stood the test of time. It's right near all the newest amenities and right next door to the popular Margaritaville Hotel, for almost a third to half off. Honestly, I almost didn't want to review this spot, and instead, keep it as our little secret. Enjoy

    Location, Location, Location. You walk out side and your right on the beach.It's right next door to Margaritaville. Ms Patricia is so helpful. The King deluxe room is my favorite.

    Not a bad little view if you get a ocean front The building is three floors The room is rated a solid three The Decour is kind of banged up scuffed up but other than that the bed is clean I don't see any bugs toilet is clean and I have a great view to the ocean price for hotel is basically for the location but I'll rock with it

    You can't beat the price and location! We had a great waterside view room and could just walk outside to be at the sandy beach or stroll down the Broadwalk. The hotel is centrally located along the Broadwalk and right next to Margaritaville where they have water park amenities and a fitness spa. Lots of great restaurants in the area! The hotel offers beach towels, umbrellas, chairs and boogie boards to be enjoyed at the beach. I found the staff to be generally very pleasant and helpful. The hotel is kept very clean. It seems that the hotel was renovated within the last decade but it is by no means a new hotel. Looking at it's history, it was built in the 1930's(?), this was a high end hotel back then. Bathrooms are small with little surface space to place toiletries, etc. There is no built in fan in the bathrooms and the windows in our room would not open as they were rusted out. So just be aware of this if you are sharing the room... The beds were nice and firm. The AC worked well but we had an electrical shortage when apparently our room and the room next to us were using the hairdryers at the same time, it was fixed promptly once we notified the staff. All in all a great experience and well worth the money. We would definitely come back! p.s. splurge and get the water view room, it is definitely worth it, there is nothing to look at on the other side of the hotel.

    King size bed, clean and nice

    Honestly.... It's not a resort. The front entrance can detour you but the overall room and attentiveness of the front door manager is amazing. Our first room the deluxe the dead bolt wouldn't lock so they upgraded us to the oceanfront balcony room. The room itself is nice. It does have a lot of sand embedded in the rug but what's not to expect when being across from the beach. The balcony made it a 5 star review for me. The people watching, and the ocean. I would come back in a heart beat. Check out the view, how can you beat it for 130 on the hopper app. With a 20 chair and towel fee and 10/night parking fee it's a no brainer. Just make sure to get a deluxe room or the balcony room!

    Small cozy hotel. Very clean. The hotel sits right on the boardwalk. You walk out the door of the hotel to the boardwalk to the beach. You have a clear view of the beach. All of the employees we encountered were very nice and helpful. The beds are comfortable. The bathroom looked like it was renovated. The air worked very well. The hotel is located right next to Margaritaville. There are restaurants and entertainment up and down the strip. I would definitely stay there again.

    Beautiful open atrium and lobby area. Door on the right goes to the boardwalk which is right on the beach!

    Hollywood beach is my favorite place. I LOVE seeing a smaller hotel in this area. The smaller places are being taken over by the huge companies. When we first got there we had a parking issue, and the man at the front desk went right outside and took care of it. Staff is very pleasant, rooms are clean and comfortable, price is extremely reasonable, and you can't beat the location!!! When we go back to Hollywood beach, this is where we will stay. If you're going on a cruise, go a day early, and stay here. It's a short Uber to the pier!

    See all

    Update: 8/17/26…read more Absolutely love this place. I go back here anytime I can and this month celebrated my birthday with a weekend stay. Everyone was phenomenal! Michelle continues to exude professionalism and phenomenal service. Our experience tree was excellent with the best staff you can ever experience in any resort. From bell men Eian and Sergio to exceptional servers Elizabeth and Manny and the amazing Bartender Tim which go out of their way to make sure you are satisfied and happy. The food was incredible and just the beautiful oasis they've created is something special. The music bands were absolutely incredible in the restaurant and also on the boardwalk. The rooms are clean and with amazing views. The location is not too far from home for me which makes it an amazing luxurious staycation. Honestly, I want to return as soon as possible! Thank you. .

House keeping was very timely and kept our room tidy for days. Dinning on the resort expensive especially with kids! Margaritaville restaurant for breakfast 13$ for each kid and 25-28$ for adults...we quickly turned and left after being told that. They do have a wash room on second floor as well as a gym. Washroom detergent 1.25$ per small box so like one load. Dryers free. Cons: Billing...let's just say you want to check out at the front desk to make sure it's correct. There were some charges we were not aware of that needed attention. I feel like fine print is not on your bill or never mentioned. We had to dispute some things that took forever to correct!. Maybe return but in no rush.

I was confused with this hotel because it was some…read moreparts that were modern like the lobby but some parts were in DESPERATE NEED OF REPAIR like the elevator!!! We were scared that we would get stuck. We finally figured out that we had to keep the button pushed in order for the elevator to move and for the door to open. There was a storm earlier and there wasn't any cable so we couldn't watch TV and we were not compensated for that inconvenience. The room was semi modern but there was an older heating and cooling system in the room. The linen was clean and the bed was comfy. The shower and bathroom needed some repair but the water was hot and the water pressure was good. My room was pretty tidy however my mother's room was not and she had roaches in here room, she slept in her clothes! They offered free breakfast which was a plus. It was hot and fresh. They have a shuttle that comes to pick you up and take you to the port of Miami for $25 per person, but we didn't use their shuttle service we hired a private one. Overall not a bad stay but this wouldn't be on my top list of places to stay.

    1-Star Review I…read morestayed at the Best Western at 2601 N 29th Ave, Hollywood, FL 33020, and the experience was absolutely disgusting. Within minutes of entering my room, I found three large roaches. I killed one, and the other two ran across the room--there was no way I could stay the night knowing more were likely hiding. To make matters worse, the room was $250 per night, which is absolute insanity for what turned out to be a full-on roach motel. I reported the issue to the front desk, and while they agreed to refund my money, the situation made me seriously question how dirty this hotel must be to have multiple giant roaches in the room. I'm just glad I got out of there. If you decide to stay here, I strongly recommend doing a thorough inspection of your room, because cleanliness should be the most important part of any overnight stay. I would not recommend this hotel!!!

There were some major hits and misses with this hotel though. Here's what I loved: -The amenities: they have free airport shuttle, WiFi, a swimming pool, laundry room, full size refrigerators. -The bar- it's always nice being able to grab a drink in your hotel! The bartender was chatty. He made good drinks and provided great conversations! -The room layout: spacious and accommodating! Perfect for families or people traveling for extended stays! While there is no stove or oven you can get a lot dine with the convection microwave that they have. -Free Breakfast- complimentary breakfast includes a breakfast buffet that has fruit, yogurt, eggs, toast/bagels, and a protein. (The protein is usually a pork option, flagging for those with dietary restrictions!) Here's what needed to be better: -our bedding had yellow stains on them. We took them down to the lobby and when we exchanged them the next two sets we were given also had yellow stains! This is a problem that management needs to look into. No guest should sleep on yellow sheets! -The pool was pretty dirty. There were cigarette buts and other debris floating in the pool. It's peak travel season. The hotel should do a better job keeping the pool clean. -ice: there is no ice machines on site. Your fridge has an ice maker in the freezer. Overall for the convenience and price this hotel could be a good option once the hotel irons out the cleanliness issues that I outlined above.

The hotel is well staffed with someone always available to greet you and take care of any questions. We arrived before check in and they were already able to get us into a room which was such a win after an early morning flight down. The rooms are amazing with a separate sitting area and bedroom area. The wall between has a swivel tv stand, so you can spin it a full 180 around to watch in bed. The bathroom has a huge shower with easy entry and a bench in the back. We didn't use much of the kitchenette, but a full fridge, countertop stove, dishwasher, and microwave would make this a great place to stay! The breakfast is included with lots of hot foods and plenty of pastries and fruit. Unfortunately for our stay, they were having maintenance issues with the close elevator broken down and a horrid smell coming from the hallway in between. The biggest perk though is the proximity to Dania Point. We walked over a few times to enjoy the local restaurants and shopping!

Just call when you arrive and they will send a shuttle to pick you up and take you to the hotel. The hotel room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The location is conveniently located in the Dania Point shopping center, and it is an easy walk to multiple restaurants and to the Sprouts grocery store. Breakfast is offered in the morning for a charge, but you get a credit towards food if you are a Hilton member with certain levels of status. Be sure to check your hotel folio. Our food credit wasn't initially applied and we had to call to get it applied for a refund after our stay. There is a cruise port shuttle that leaves at two times from the hotel. They charge $20 per person cash. This is a convenient, but time consuming option. The shuttle stops to pick up additional passengers at the Springhill Suites across the street and then will stop at every cruise ship at the port to drop off passengers. Unfortunately our cruise ship with Disney Cruise Line was the last stop. We weren't worried about being late, but we were on the shuttle for 1 hour before we were dropped off. Leave plenty of time if you choose to use the shuttle.

To make it worse, there was a huge gap under my door, so every bit of hallway noise came straight into the room. The elevator chime was also extremely loud and could be heard clearly from my room, which didn't help. Overall, the room itself was fine, but the lack of soundproofing and morning noise really took away from the experience. I'd reconsider staying here unless these issues are addressed.
