A very nice hotel. Good breakfast and service. Close to everything and only a short ride to the beaches. Only complaint is that every evening the hotel would fill up with truckers, landscapers, and other business affiliated personnel. One evening a group was gathered at the pool drinking beer out of glass bottles and we witnessed one of the workers spitting in the jacuzzi. That kind of ruined it for us. Of course we realize that this could happen anywhere.
Front desk friendly....

I stayed 3 nights at this hotel and it served its purpose. I ended up upgrading from a standard to a suite because it was so much nicer & spacious for only $20 more per night. Housekeeping FORGOT to clean my room the first day, but I was pleased that the GM reimbursed me for one night's upgrade cost as a result of this oversight. The breakfast was nice, rooms clean and I was pleased for Wireless internet. The beds are hard. Its not the service I get at my Marriott's as a Silver Elite Member, but I will recommend it if you are on a budget.

Hotel was great. The room was excellent . Kingsize bed very comfortable although the pillows were not they were extremly soft like marshmellows. Did get and recieve extra pillows in a timely manner, which helped somewhat but isuggest they need firmer pillows. But other than the pillow situation had w great time. Nice large bathroom. And a very nice breakfast too. Will definitely stay there again when going to sarasota fl

For all intents and purposes, this was one of my better experiences with hotels in the Sarasota area. The hotel was convenient to I-75 and southern Sarasota (Beneva, Tamiami, etc.). The breakfast buffet was much better than expected. Most hotels have a continental buffet, but this one had hot scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, and make-your-own waffles, in addition to the typical continental breakfast. Every evening, there were fresh cookies available (this is a very nice treat after a hectic day). The room was clean for the most part, but had a slightly funky smell, but it did not bother me, and I quickly got used to it. The only negative issue I had was the slow internet access this hotel had. Apparently they have one of the slow DSL access connections (around 300 Kbps), whereas I am used to 7Gbps Cable. Overall, I would recommend this hotel.
