Excellent location, clean rooms, helpful and friendly desk staff. Valet parking costs $45/day so we opted for the city lot across the street. The hotel lends beach chairs and towels, a nice amenity, and the roof bar is great. Not quite a luxury hotel, but a good choice in Sarasota if the budget allows.
Mike at the Desk was awesome. Took great care of us the room is beautiful and the rooftop pool deck has a great view!! we will definitely stay here again!
Wonderful hotel in downtown Sarasota. The entire experience was amazing with comfortable accomodations, beautiful atmosphere, great bar/restaurant and gracious staff. Thank you for such a memorable stay.
Great hotel with art in the lobby, artists in residence, phenomenal service and located near restaurants and bars.

Everyone was really friendly and helpful. It is a beautiful property. The rooms are nice and art everywhere is so cool. Only one improvement would be stronger coffee as it was super weak and bland but expensive!
Excellent location and wonderful customer service. The staff were extremely friendly & helpful. The rooftop pool & lounge had a great vibe with great drinks

Room was pretty beat up. Hole in carpet, scratches on head board, toilet obnoxiously loud, staff at roof top bar and valet first day were quite rude. (Parking fees $40 per night and $28 “daily destination” silly. For the “exceptional” rating online I was disappointed. Location is prime and lobby, art areas, shop are lovely.
Loved this hotel. Room was immaculate and the bed was so comfortable it was like sleeping in the clouds. Loved the rooftop bar and all the staff are wonderful.
Lots of great restaurants within walking distance. We will definitely return.
Great location, and the staff are all very friendly and helpful. They have a shuttle for local trips which was very nice. I would definitely visit again.
We thought the staff was exceptionally friendly and the hotel accommodations, from the shuttle to the chairs and towels for the beach were great. We will return.
Hotel is located near the restaurants and shopping. The king bed room was large, including the bathroom. Valet and front desk was friendly and receptive.
