Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room had an awful smell. Had to spray lysol. The carpet was dirty. The coffee pot didn’t work. The bed was lopsided. I would not recommend this place to anyone. I’m going to contact corporate. We spoke to other guests and they stated it was awful also. The breakfast was toast and orange and apple juice and coffee far cry from a continental breakfast.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The place is old and worn out the bathroom looks like it would be in a section 8 home The only reason I stayed was because it was walking distance from the airport When I get back from where I am now, I'll find another place. I don't care how much it is. I'm certainly not gonna stay there. Oh, and I asked for a 4 o'clock wake up call. I never got it even though she said she would.

The room was clean and neat. The staff were very courteous. However, we left after one night as the air conditioner would go on and off. When off, there was no air. Unfortunately they would not refund the next two nights stating I had not purchased protection? We were in Sarasota for my mom’s memorial.

Reception was very pleasant. Room was very clean. Unfortunately, the street noise is quite loud and made it hard to sleep. Breakfast was good and location to SRQ is good. Only reason I didn;t give 5 stars is because both nights the noise was so loud - I couldn't it 5 starts.

Everything was spotlessly clean including the breakfast area -- not one drip -- pristine. The bed was very comfortable and the staff was extremely accommodating and pleasant. I booked at the last minute and the price for Sarasota in January on a Friday night was amazing! The pool was very nice. I would definitely stay again. I was able to walk to the airport. No frills but just what I needed.
