Spark by Hilton Sarasota Siesta Key Gateway
The room smelled musty like a gym bag, wasn’t terrible but definitely a smell. The bed was comfortable.

Tropical Breeze Resort
The room was nice. The pillows could have been fluffier and it was cold while I stayed there. I wish we could’ve gotten a heavier comforter.
