We had a wonderful stay with my husband in this place! The hotel is the best out of all inexpensive (and often ways more expensive )hotels we’ve ever stayed at.
It’s is very, very clean, comfortable.
The cheapest rooms are very spacious. The staff goes out of their way to help you. Everyone you meet smiles at you and greets you. The breakfast was very good and fresh. We are planning to stay there again when we come back to Sarasota.
We’ve been here several times while in Sarasota and it’s always been fantastic! Friendly , professional staff, heated pool with zen piano music piped in. Exceptionally clean rooms and very spacious!! I highly recommend this little getaway!!
Overall this hotel was very clean, the staff was very accommodating and we had an enjoyable stay. The only minor issues we the rooms lacked certain features like ceiling fans in the sleeping area and exhaust fans in the bathroom. Also one of the two elevators was out of service during our entire stay. As I said only minor concerns. The location of the hotel was convenient to many dining options. We didn't dine in the companion restaurant Der Dutchman but we sampled some of their baked goods which were outstanding. All in all, we would stay here again.

We have stayed here many times! The staff is friendly and helpful, the hotel is spotless. Will stay there every time we are in Sarasota.
The room was very clean, neat, bathroom was good, water very hot. The only thing missing was in-shower body wash on the wall. This room had regular soap bars. But I would stay again for sure.
This hotel was the cleanest hotel, rooms are big and very comfortable, the staff were friendly and helpful, I would stay here again and I recommend this hotel, it is truly the best !
Everything about this hotel was wonderful except bed comfort that was lacking. Staff members were outstanding as was the hotel condition. It was surprising that mattresses didn't equal all other aspects of the facility.
This is the cleanest hotel I've ever stayed in. It's a beautiful property with friendly staff.
My only complaint is the piped in music. It is played in public throughout the hotel and in the outdoor areas. We were on the second floor and could hear it at 630am, in our room through the closed door! It's too loud and you can't get away from it. I needed quiet to concentrate on my work and couldn't find a place away from the music.
Otherwise, I highly recommend this hotel.
Everything about the say was absolute perfection. What a great place! and the restaurant next-door was absolutely amazing. The only change I would make would be to the showerheads. The water pressure wasn’t great and the shower spray was too spread out so you had to take longer to rinse. But overall, it was amazing.
