"El Hotel Fort Myers Beach fue excelente en todos los sentidos. Cuenta con una ubicación privilegiada, a unos 20 minutos de la playa, y justo al lado se encuentra la estación principal del bus Beach Park, que por un precio muy económico te lleva cómodamente hasta la playa, evitando así los costosos parqueaderos. El hotel es completamente nuevo y sus instalaciones se encuentran en perfecto estado. Las habitaciones son modernas, cómodas y muy agradables. Además, el servicio de camarería se adapta a tus horarios, lo que permite descansar tranquilamente sin interrupciones. La atención en recepción también fue excelente. La encargada tuvo el detalle de permitirnos adelantar la hora del check-in, ya que habíamos viajado muy temprano. Aunque no hablaba inglés, hizo todo lo posible por comunicarse y ayudarnos, algo que valoramos mucho. El hotel cuenta además con una estación de hidratación permanente y, como un detalle excepcional que no ofrecen muchos hoteles, dispone de café recién molido durante todo el día. La recepción es amplia y agradable, con computadores disponibles para quienes necesiten trabajar. El servicio de Wi-Fi es rápido, estable y confiable. Las tarifas son justas y, como detalle adicional, el depósito de USD 50 no fue cargado a mi tarjeta. En general, fue una excelente experiencia. Un hotel moderno, cómodo, bien ubicado, con muy buena atención y una excelente relación calidad-precio. Totalmente recomendado y, sin duda, una experiencia de 100/100."
