Island Sun Inn & Suites - Venice, Florida Historic Downtown & Beach Getaway
I came in on an early bus, and the staff was so lovely they let me check in 3 hours early without an extra charge. When I got to my room it was so clean I could have eaten off the floor. Everything was perfect. I would love to stay here next time I require accommodations in Venice. My rating is 12 ...
