8.2/10 Very Good! (125 reviews)
This is a very convenient property in Ft. Lauderdale - literally 1/2 block from the beach with a small, pleasant pool. Our group rented the “extra large” room - sleeps 8, with two bathrooms and it worked well.
I would say the fact that this is a check yourself in hotel you just need to be prepared to be independent - it’s more like an AirBnB experience than a hotel.
You are sent a code for the gate and the key box to your room.
The room was clean - however, a few things were broken or missing - like one of the bathrooms was missing the toilet paper holder, and the other had a broken hair dryer - and the bedding for the couch bed was missing - when I texted via the Expedia app for assistance with the bedding, I was directed downstairs to an office, but the blankets weren’t there either and no hotel staff was on site to assist, however, the hotel staff solved the problem by sending the maintenance staff to drop off several sheets that when stacked together were the weight of a blanket when the staff realized that there were no blankets available for pick up.
All in all, I would recommend Elita to other guests - just know what you are booking!
