On the plus side, they're trying. This property probably dates back to the early 1950s, and they've tried to capture some of that old Florida kitsch, but add modern conveniences. For instance, the kitchenette had a marble countertop, and the TVs were well-equipped with streaming gadgets. The wifi was fast. But, the units are not in good shape. Blown outlets, missing towel bars, and a shower curtain rod that is five seconds away from pulling out an enormous chunk of plaster. But what just ruined my stay was the noise. Being a lower unit, naturally there was a group above me. At 0500, I was awakened (and I sleep like the dead) by what sounded like a dozen bass drums being played at once: It was the timpani effect of the uncarpeted floor above me. "How many times do people need to walk from the living room to the bathroom?" I asked myself, after half an hour of this. Eventually I concluded that, based on the booming sound, the upstairs unit must be housing some hefty construction workers, all over 250 lbs. Well, no. I peeked out to see them load their car, and it was a Mom with two tweens. The three of them together couldn't have weighed 250 lbs. Once they were gone, the place was silent, but I'd now been awake for two hours and it was time to get up. If you MUST stay here, get a 2nd floor unit.

This was a very clean older Motel. It is a good value for the location and was very clean. The only drawback is that it is on a busy highway and that makes it a little nosey. I would stay there again

We booked a last minute room when our flight was cancelled. It met all the basic requirements for a quick overnight stay. Desk staff was friendly. Beds and pillows were uncomfortable. The smoke detector was missing from the wall, which is not up to code.

We just needed a place to sleep for the night due to a festival at the UTC Mall. There were 4 of us staying, we only had 2 towels which sucked, so we had to share wet towels so we can shower. It was 10:30pm when we checked in and there wasn't anyone in the office and no housekeeping to ask for extra items. Breakfast place was basic. Its the little things that count and we didn't get it from here. I wouldn't come back for the price we payed just for a couple hours of sleep.

We've stayed here last year, and my wife insisted that we stay again this year. We were in Sarasota for a Conference and this location is perfect for our needs. Food options are extremely slim in Sarasota, period. But the little kitchenette in our room made this location even more important. The property is corca'60's, but the cleaning staff keep it so well, we feel right at home. 🙂

Not a Hilton, but didn’t expect it to be one. Owners were very helpful as our flight came in late. Very accommodating. Our room wasn’t clean, bathroom toilet had hairs on it and kitchen wasn’t cleaned. We didn’t have towels either. But overall it was good for our stay.
