Very clean, lots of dining options close by, beaches 20 minutes and 10 minutes from the airport. Swimming pool and staff are exceptional! Would definitely stay again.

Ari was SO HELPFUL! She provided early check-in when I asked, after hurting my back getting to Sarasota, and it was a HUGE relief! Then she allowed me to check out 36 hours early and refunded the night I did not use. And to top it off, she secured the iPhone charger I had forgotten, and had it at the desk before my flight home to Iowa! A super experience, thanks so much Ari!

Desk clerk/service was very pleasant. Lobby could use an update. Room was recently renovated and comfortable. Well lighted parking. Some traffic noise but not significant. Didn’t hear planes.

Rooms appeared to be freshly renovated, and were clean and very tastefully done. The pool was very basic, but a nice size, and look very clean. I like the tiki hut, as you first came in the hotel, a great place to relax and have a beverage. The hotel didn’t offer breakfast, but there was a room next to the lobby that is being renovated and I’m guessing that is where breakfast will be offered in the future. The hotel does sit very close to the flight path at the airport. However, the noise of airplanes was not noticeable. The price was reasonable and I would stay there again.

The rooms have been updated but the location is next to major road and the runway at Sarasota International airport. This makes for a noisy location.
