B Ocean Resort Fort Lauderdale Beach
The staff was courteous however the grounds was unattended trash cigarette butts overflowing trash cans. It was good and a great location. It maybe an East Coast thing. A lot of tourists from abroad. Price was right. Food was expensive for what it was.

The rooms are very nice, with nice looking new fixtures and such but the craftsmanship of the remodel was cheap, and poorly executed. ...
