What guests think

At Red Carpet Inn Airport Fort Lauderdale, travelers highlight budget pricing, convenient location for the airport and cruise port with free shuttles, an older property with a large pool, and mixed experiences around cleanliness, noise, and staff interactions.

Many guests find simple, clean rooms, helpful front-desk and maintenance teams, and strong value for a short pre‑flight or pre‑cruise stay. However, recurring negatives include pest sightings, musty or damp rooms, thin walls and external noise, spotty Wi‑Fi/TV, and frustration with large security deposits or slow refunds. On-site dining is limited or under renovation, with a small snack area and occasional food truck; options within walking distance are few. Best for budget-minded transit stays rather than extended vacations.

The room was clean and well maintained. Air conditioning worked well and the restroom looked renovated. Shower water was not very hot though, and they only offer free coffee in the morning unless you want to pay for breakfast. Really appreciated the free shuttle to not only the hotel from the airport, but also the free shuttle to the cruise terminal. Shuttle vans were nice and had good air conditioning. This was a last minute booking and we were pleased with the hotel overall.

Highly recommend this place for coming/going on cruises, they are very accommodating if you pay for early/late check in/out in advance! Free cruise port shuttle and airport shuttle (remember to tip your driver). Close to the airport. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was a great size, tile floors (love this), everything was very clean. Property was very clean, well maintained and beautiful. Huge pool! Lots of parking. Restaurant right next door, plus food delivery is easy. A small convenience area is located at check in that has a decent variety of basic needs, beverages, snacks, even some wine and beer (not 24 hrs though). Walking distance to a beautiful nature trail with a variety of wildlife, plants, and some flowers (but recommend walking down the road ~10 min to the actual crosswalk, as you have to cross the highway to get there). Only downside of this hotel is that you can hear everything around you as the walls and window are very thin (but expected as it is an older hotel). Just bring a sound machine and you will be fine!

I called back for another room at 2 am we entered Room 181 and while the 5 roaches were seen on the floor. Very disappointed in the rooms and cost to stay there.

The room looked clean at first but the floor was dirty. A roach crawled on the bed and I saw another one come out from under the fridge. If it weren't for the roaches, it would have been fine. We've stayed there before and everything was alright then. This time pest control was needed.

The shuttle picked me up at the airport promptly and driver was nice. Check in at the hotel was excellent. The lobby was full of people checking in, but they had plenty of staff to handle it. Paulo checked me in and he was super nice and helpful. The hotel is old, but clean. The bed had a super soft topper on it and I haven’t slept that well in years! For the price it can’t be beat. They also have a shuttle to the cruise port. It is a great place to stay when coming in a day before a cruise. I will come back.

The hotel was great clean, perfect for a quick solo trip, and offered a reasonable price. However, this hotel does not have smart TVs, so you can’t access Netflix or other streaming services. Also, be cautious about staying on the first floor near room 162. Employees start work early in that area, and you can hear them talking loudly and moving carts. This seems to only affect that side of the building.

Overall good experience. The staff was friendly. I only stayed for one night but the room was pretty spacious. The area is a little noisy and there were no blinds so you have to shut the curtains in order to get some privacy, which means you wont get any sunlight into your room but there were plenty lights and it wasn't as big of a deal. The room was pretty clean and I saw no other problems. Free airport shuttle was very nice addition.

The hotel was clean, for being an older place. The front desk staff were professional and on point. The room…? Little lacking in the bedding department. Pillows were flat and sheets needed upgraded. Cracks around edge and baseboards of room. Not sure what’s going on there. All in all. It’s a decent place to stay before a cruise or getting in late night like I did. They try really hard though with what they have to work with.

Room was ok for an overnight stay, wouldn’t stay longer than that. The rooms need updating, weren’t cleaned thoroughly. Our tv did not work and we tried to use the phone to call the front desk the phone did not work either so we had to use our cell phone. They sent maintenance and he brought us another tv that did not work either so we gave up at that point.

We appreciated the shuttle coming to pick us up from the airport as soon as we arrived. This was a fine hotel for spending the night before boarding our cruise (and the shuttle to the cruise port was excellent as well). The only drawback to this location was the lack of places to eat close by. We didn't have a car and the little food truck that's in their parking lot, where we thought we'd eat dinner, never opened despite being told they'd open at 6 pm. We ended up buying a sandwich from the little snack shop at the hotel, which worked in a pinch.

The hotel is convenient for cruisers as it has free airport shuttle to and from both the cruise terminal and Fort Lauderdale airport. They do have an option to purchase minimal food on site, however, it is very basic. The hotel next door does have a restaurant, and there's a food truck in the parking lot, however, other than that, there's not much of anything else around food or shopping wise.

A great deal for the money if you need a no frills hotel near FLL airport with free airport shuttle. Shout out to Shoran, Shawn, Sanchez, Danielle at the front desk and José the driver. Breakfast downstairs was affordable and convenient especially since the only place for food in walking distance was the RaceTrac next door. Main complaint was very spotty wifi service and limited options to eat within walking distance, other than that it was overall the best deal we could find. The racetrack had surprisingly good whole pizzas for $9.99 as well as other higher end convenience store fare, so it was fine for us to stay there a night. Would stay here again considering the price, free airport shuttle and the good service from staff.
