The hotel is in a great location and walkable to just about everywhere in downtown Sarasota. The bed is super comfy & pillows were great. The hotel is generally clean, but there are not a lot of amenities. I probably wouldn’t stay more than a night or two but for the price point and convenience it was perfect.

The only thing I did not like about the hotel was that my room came with no drawers for clothes. It seemed a little weird to me.

Nice and close to everything Dwotown Sarasota has to offer. Bars, Restaurants, a quick ride across the causeway to the Beaches and St. Armands. Hotel rooms are not carpeted. Sounds in adjoining rooms and those above you are easily transmitted. Heard the conversations of the people in the room next to us and the snoring from the person in the room above us. Would not stay here again for the noise issues.
