Nice Hotel, Nice Pool, Great Cookies
The hotel was nice. The pool was nice. They put out a great breakfast, had popcorn and the cookies were waiting at 4:00. It was convenient to area attractions. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. We had a king bed room and it was sort of small but ok. for our needs. Property was landscaped nicely and there are two good restaurants within walking distance.

Newly renovated; clean bright rooms
We have stayed at this location before new management took over - the rooms were dark and dingy but they have all been nicely updated. The common areas are also renovated; they are clean and bright. The fitness center has all new equipment. It isn't large, but it's adequate and up-to-date. If you are looking to stay close to Siesta Key, this is the perfect location for a couple nights stay.

Makes it close to go see the sites!!!
The place was not easy to find with my garman. Due to sitting back off the road, it was easy to find when went site seeing as found land marks to turn at. The room could have been kept better as when used coffee and cups the were not replenished each day . Had to go ask for more coffee at front desk.

Great location....near everything!
Our room was clean and did not have a bad odor at all. The bathroom was clean as well as all of the linens. The vanity area had granite counter tops and there was a huge big screen tv in the room. The pool area was very pretty and well kept and the pool itself was very clean. The best part was the FREE complimentary breakfast that is served daily. The breakfast has a bit of everything such as fresh pancakes, hot cinnamon rolls, bacon, sausage, eggs, omlettes, grits/oatmeal, juice, muffins, bagels, fruit, etc. And there is always plenty....no need to rush before they run out! I would definitely stay here again!!!

Nothing special
The room and the bathroom were smaller than expected. Bath & shower obviously very old. The beds were small but very comfortable. The complimentary breakfast was excellent and everything was in working order - TV, microwave, fridge, elevator, ice & vending machines. The pool & jacuzzi were closed and locked at 10 pm, so there was no where to sit outside and chat with friends. We really wanted to go in the jacuzzi and feel the pool should stay open for over 18s until midnight. One of the most fun things about vacationing in Florida is swimming outside in the warm night air. This hotel is close to everything and very clean.
