Clay

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
-Room was in poor condition with fraying carpet, discolored headboard and damaged cabinetry. -1 of 2 elevators was not working the entire weekend. -TV volume would not go up high enough to hear Netflix movies well. Volume was fine for regular TV. -May have been acceptable for a 2 or 3 star hotel but disappointing for a hotel advertised as 4 stars for $800/night -Required amenity fee in addition to hotel cost

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Yes, the room was very clean. I loooved the comfy robes. The lighting could be better. I loved the coffee bar and the all the drawers. I did not like the headboard on the bed, very ugly and was damaged. Nice big desk, another chair would be great for two people if they want to eat in the room. I really liked the water pressure and the big shower and the large vanity with the drawers. The lobby art was amazing and the restaurant was also very good for breakfast. We did not eat dinner or lunch there. Staff was great, our phone did not work but it was fixed the next day after we mentioned it. The upstairs bar and pool were very nice as well but too cold to take advantage of it.

Excellent location, clean rooms, helpful and friendly desk staff. Valet parking costs $45/day so we opted for the city lot across the street. The hotel lends beach chairs and towels, a nice amenity, and the roof bar is great. Not quite a luxury hotel, but a good choice in Sarasota if the budget allows.

Room was pretty beat up. Hole in carpet, scratches on head board, toilet obnoxiously loud, staff at roof top bar and valet first day were quite rude. (Parking fees $40 per night and $28 “daily destination” silly. For the “exceptional” rating online I was disappointed. Location is prime and lobby, art areas, shop are lovely.
