The property is located near the airport and fairly close to downtown. As a resort I thought the property would be in better shape. Our room looked to have been recently renovated, however, cleanliness was a huge issue. I noticed hair all over the floor around the bathroom, sink, bed, and fridge. I am not a fan of other people’s hair, and my socks proved the point, I had to throw them away. The staff are very friendly and helpful and I did not complain about the room to them, we just spent an hour wiping up and down everything and threw a lot of hair away. We travel quite a lot and stay at many hotels and I will not make another mistake about here, we usually stay at Kompose near the airport. There is also not many restsurants of food joints close by.

We needed a last minute room close to the airport. The location was perfect and the price was reasonable. The rooms were unique and upgraded. I will stay there again if I need to be close to the Sarasota airport.
