Ft Lauderdale / Hollywood, Fla info

[gringo jim]

Will be visiting Ft Lauderdale / Hollywood, Fla area early November.

Have a few motels eyed out, any advice on what is cool or where to stay away from? Requirements are: kitchenette, close to the beach, $100 a night. Private hostel room is another option.

Do have some sup rental places lined up , any advice will be helpful.

Thanks a lot, Jim
