FORT LAUDERDALE, THURS, FEB 2 -

We flew to FL a week early to visit family and take a side trip to Key West. We are staying at the Extended Stay America on SE 17th St. We arrived at 11am and our room was ready! The front desk was extremely helpful recommending places for lunch and activities. We made our reservation for the cruise shuttle with the front desk. We are getting the 9:30 shuttle. I know it's a little early, but I'd rather wait at the port and be first in line! We also had to drop our rental car off. There is a Budget in "The Quay" shopping center directly across the street from the hotel. It's the shopping center in front of the Renaissance Hotel, with the Bimini Boatyard restaurant. This was extremely convenient!

After we returned the car and got situated in our room, we headed out to lunch. We went to Gyroville. Again, directly across the street from the hotel. That street is kind of tricky to cross! Be careful! We did a little bit of shopping after lunch at the Dollar Store, Ross, and the liquor store.

Cabin Review

Mini-Suite with Balcony

Cabin ME

Mini suite, E730. FABULOUS!!! I was concerned after reading some posts that you could hear noise from club fusion. We did not hear one peep. We loved sitting on our extra large balcony. I also liked the location. We did have to walk a bit to get to where we were going, but I didn't mind the exercise. We didn't have to take any elevators to get to the dining rooms, Piazza or Princess Theatre. WE used the stairs because it was only up or down 1 or 3 flights.

This was the first time we got a minisuite. I'm addicted to the full size tub! There's no going back now. I also enjoyed the couch/sitting area. It was nice sitting on the couch to read, and not having to prop yourself up in bed. The cabin was very comfortable and the space was perfect. There was plenty of closet space too.

I highly recommend this mini suite!
