Hotel Sheldon

My hotel experience at Hotel Sheldon was terrible. First, the hotel room was really small, the hotel bathroom had a really bad odor, and a lot of roaches were coming out of the bathroom. We were given dirty cups and the refrigerator did NOT have any refreshment drinks at all. On top of that the TV was not working at all. Be mindful of a fee of $85 which include parking and to visit or stay on the resort. Worst experience ever. Everytime I asked for manager they were unavailable. Never again.

Disappointed and Treated Poorly—This Hotel Has Changed We’ve stayed at this hotel many times because of its unbeatable location right on the Hollywood Beach boardwalk. We always book an oceanview room and loved the boutique charm—even without a pool or many amenities. It used to be our go-to spot for a quick weekend getaway. This time, although the hotel has been remodeled, that’s sadly where the positives ended. We were misinformed by the front desk about parking regulations, which led to my daughter’s car being targeted by a tow truck just three minutes past the posted time. The only reason we were slightly late was because I have an injured knee, which was visibly obvious. Despite this, the tow truck was already waiting like a hawk, and instead of towing the car, they placed a boot on it without any notice. We only realized it was booted when my daughter got in the car and tried to drive off, feeling like something was wrong. She could have seriously damaged the car had she applied more force. When we confronted the tow company, they insisted we were later than three minutes, yet couldn’t provide any proof. We were left with no choice but to pay $170 to avoid further hassle. When we went to the front desk to explain and try to resolve the issue, we were met with zero empathy or assistance. The woman working was clueless and dismissive, and it felt like we were inconveniencing her by even speaking up. To make matters worse, before all of that, our toilet wasn’t flushing properly. We let the front desk know before going to dinner and were told there was no one available to fix it and that we could just use the bathroom across the hall until the next day. I asked for a plunger, and they said we could pick it up later. After dinner, I reminded the front desk—and she acted like we had never spoken. As if that wasn’t enough, housekeeping showed up way too early in the morning, waking us before we were ready. We had to decline service—another inconvenience. We didn’t let it ruin our weekend, but it came very close. I used to recommend this hotel to everyone. Sadly, I can no longer do that. The location is still great, but with no amenities, poor service, and staff who clearly don’t care, it’s just not worth the price anymore. Look elsewhere. There are plenty of other places on the boardwalk that won’t treat you like this.

Overenight Everything was very nice. The bathrooms were small and the bed was a little on the hard side otherwise everything was nice.

Hotel was still under renovation so the lobby area was not very usable. Nice size tv in the room. Extremely nice location for walking to food/entertainment. Mattress was a bit uncomfortable and could have used an upgrade with the rest of the renovation of the room. The use of beach chairs for each room was pleasant surprised and we used them every day!

Excellent location and friendly staff

Have stayed here before it’s right in the middle of everything and convenient for my flight a little later
