Great location
We had a very nice stay at this Best Western property. The rooms were nice and clean, we were treated wonderfully by the day staff, the breakfast staff was very helpful and we enjoyed the music from the pool area. Our only complaint was the attitude of the night manager. He did as asked but his lack of patience, condescension and rudeness with a line of guests, 2 nights in a row, was very poor customer service. I rate it 4 out of 5 because of this one manager.
Excellent stay!
This hotel was exactly what we needed: clean, friendly, pool, and a pool bar, and a free shuttle to the beach and village. All the staff were so helpful and kind. Dennis and Alex were the best and really went out of their way!
4th stay here
A 5 star stay again, can’t say enough about this place, your treated here like your famous, front desk, breakfast workers, bartenders all are fantastic. That’s why we come twice a year now. Siesta Key beach just minutes away. Free rides also.
Carpet Dirty - Management would not call me back
Carpet was nasty, manager would not return my call. Supposedly manager checked my room and found the carpet to be clean. See my dirty foot below. I took a rag and wiped across the carpet 3 times....GROSS! We could not get a manager to return the call to my cell phone when I left at the front desk every morning. We ended up going to the pool area and getting towels to lay out on the dirty carpet. The rest of the room was very clean, only the carpet was dirty and sticky. The bagged breakfast was OK (due to Covid), but the hot breakfast was delicious. The pool and hot tub were amazing!
Vacation in Sarasota
The rooms were very basic, but the bed was comfortable and the shower was good. We liked the location. The pool was very appreciated and the musician, a guitarist who sang was great. We enjoyed it the Ringling museum and art gallery.
