The deco is a bit worn out and outdated. The elevator and rooms have a nasty smell but the exceptional service from the valet, restaurant bar, main desk absolutely everyone made the stay perfect. Love the fresh flavored water in the lobby and complimentary cold water bottles given by the valet/doorman

I would NEVER book again at this property ! The only thing nice was their pool. Staff is unprofessional ,rooms are dirty ,and they don’t a specify the hidden fees. Deposit $100 Resort fees $35 plus they change the price every time Only Valet parking $40 (their space is behind the hotel on the street no cover) They don’t offer self park. My family and I stayed for 4 July weekend . Pool area is as described in the pictures nice But not worth luxury price. Bathtub clogs . Second day when we came back from the beach, the room wasn’t clean. We were disappointed. We had to make our own beds . Not worth the price !

Great Possibilities

We were excited to stay at the Sarasota Modern. Having the valet parking was a nice touch so we knew we were in for a treat at the hotel. Unfortunately when walking into the lobby we weren't impressed. The front desk and surrounding furniture were really rundown. The front desk had marks, chips, etc. This is a customer's first impression so you want to make it impactful. The elevators (though cool vibe with wallpaper) had a bad odor that wasn't appealing. The room itself was very nice and comfortable. The room was what we expected. The bar area was very nice too and the overall staff were excellent. Just a few updates would have taken this rating from a 3 to a 5.

Overall, it was a great experience - I liked it so much, I've already booked a return trip while I was staying in the hotel. However, some of the staff seemed like they'd rather be anywhere else. I had a few questions upon checking in the person behind the desk was less then enthusiastic when speaking with me. Once I was in my room, I noticed the hotel room door didn't lock; they sent someone to come fix it but he told me it wasn't broken & wouldn't really take anything else for an answer, so my entire four night stay the door was half unlocked. Later that first day, I noticed the patio door didn't lock; the hotel sent someone to fix it, which they did with gracious speed. Day two my tv wasn't working, when I called to have someone look at it they didn't have anyone available, had to wait until the next day. Day 3, tv didn't work, they sent someone to fix it. Day 4, tv didn't work, they once again sent someone to fix it. Aside from the room issues, it was a nice stay. The pool/cabanas/wink wink restaurant was great. Kelly at the pool bar is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! She really made our time at the pool wonderful, same with Jersey. I was able to meet Brittney as well, the three of them deserve a raise, really great customer service. Would recommend & plan to stay again, just hope to have less issues in the room!

The location is excellent. You can walk to Van Wezel Performing Arts Center and Marina Jack and downtown. Front desk staff was helpful. Had a King room and it was really small - narrow space between the bed and the TV. Shower was very tiny - almost impossible to take a shower without getting your hair wet. Room was supposed to be cleaned but, although we left it empty for 5 hours during the day, it was not cleaned - and we even saw the cleaning staff as we were leaving the room and said we were going out.
