Nice budget hotel

Nice budget hotel. I’m a trucker who likes to get out of my truck one weekend a month and this was a great place with truck parking next store at the Good will. We were able to go to the beach near by and have fun shopping. The dining options were awesome too. They have a pool now which was a nice bonus that was unexpected because it says no pool online.

Older hotel but staff wonderful and clean
Helen, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

We just needed a place to sleep that was close to the attractions we were visiting. This location was very convenient. This is an older building and, although our receptionist was delightful, the room assigned to us was not ready. We were moved to another room that smelled of smoke. It was ok but not an outstanding visit.

The staff and management were really wonderful and caring.

The owners are kind and helpful. The rooms are sufficient and the continental breakfast is just right. Very close to airport and The amazing Ringling museum.

Place is clean and quiet
Randy, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff couldn't have been nicer and our room was clean, but this is $100/night kind of property. It is the most basic of motels, with absolutely no frills. I'm OK with that, but the amount we paid to stay there was 2.5 times more what we should have paid for what we got. It is nothing the staff did wrong, but I feel that I was misled online as to what kind of property I was booking.

Mary's view

I am amazed that Best Western would put their brand on such a property as this. A new coat of paint on the outside does not trump ill-maintained rooms and ancient bedding. Two good things about this hotel were a very hot shower with strong spray and a cheery, helpful receptionist. However, one of the rooms assigned to our party had not even been made up that day, so had to be reassigned.
Mary, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I liked that the staff REALLY tries to make this a great hotel. They are very professional and care.The room is clean. The beds are comfortable. There is a refrigerator and microwave in the room. Coffee maker in room. The fact is that the rugs are old and stinky, the bed linens are cheap and worn, and the room smells like pot. The pool is not heated.
Catherine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was quiet. Bed felt great and shower worked very well. I was actually impressed for $100 room! Thank you! I would definitely stay again!
Mirjana, 1-night trip

The place was nice enough - clean, comfortable bed. It sits on a very busy street; however, I figured out how to manuever around. It's not fancy, but provided what I needed.

Heather, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good for a short stay.

It was a great location for an interview I had. The bed was comfortable and the continental breakfast was a good morning start. I had an issue with smelling smoke from another room and I was in a non smoking room. Also, the shower was lukewarm and I couldn’t get hot water at all. The small fridge was a nice size and the tv had good channels. It was good for a 2 day stay.
Serena, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed a night with our kids. Came to FL to visit family. Room was incredibly clean and spacious. Mattresses were great! Staff was accommodating. The pool area is adorable. Wish we had more time to enjoy. Yes, it's by the airport and near to downtown. We saved over $100 by booking our stay here. Great room for the value. We were very comfortable and slept great!!! Would highly recommend.
Jones, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Booked a room suite with sofa bed for the family. When I arrived, the frontdesk staff had gave us a free upgrade with twin rooms which was an extra bonus. Hotel was clean, neat and extremely comfortable. Nice and immaculate pool for a relaxing end to the day. Excellent wi-fi network. Mattress is cozy and comfortable. Few steps away from the airport, free parking and a five minute drive to the beautiful lido key beach. A great location if visiting the amazing twin of Sarasota and Bradenton.
