4A had an unusual odor the did not go away. Although the place seemed tidy, the floors were sandy and gritty. Bedding smelled stale and unwashed. The bed side lamp will easily tip over if not careful turning on and off. Water from shower and bathroom sink had an odor. We had lost power on first night from about 11pm until the next morning. Communication wasn’t great. Sent text about losing power at 6:32am, no response until 11:08am. Did not lose power again after that. Refrigerator was small but kept food cold even during outage. AC finally got to temp during the night and very grateful that AC stayed on all night throughout outage.

TV did not work,no one ever in "office" you had to do all by phone, very small.

Close to shopping and the beach

This was perfect for my family. We stayed in one of the condos so we had a kitchen and living room space. The facility isn't manned by in person staff so don't expect your room to be cleaned every day, but I prefer it that way. Very close to the beaches and a two minute drive to the local shops and restaurants.

Host was amazing! Can walk 2 blocks to lido beach and to St. Armand’s circle which has lots of dining and shopping.

Excellent location; short walking distance to the beach.

Great location of block and a half from the beach we were able to walk with our things which was a huge plus. The room was Florida fifties style somewhat upgraded but it needed a lot of minor TLC like repainting baseboards and providing small rugs to help deal with the sand for the parking lot. I operate a 50s era apartment as a vacation rental for half the price of this unit and double the size and I provide a lot better amenities like making sure there are bath mats and small area rugs and handy cleaning supplies to help guests manage the inevitable sand and dirt you get in a property like this those were missing and it made my review negative. The operator could spend maybe another 10 bucks a night Max to significantly upgrade this venue. Even then a lot of people would find this small room to be unusable because the mini kitchen and closet are shared space with the air conditioner and water heater. Personally I didn't have a problem with that but a lot of people would. This ought to be pointed out up front on the website

It was spacious. But falling apart. The tub had rusted a hole and water drained out there when you showered and water was all over bathroom floor and under master bedroom floor. Ac kept shutting off, and windows do not close to keep ac in .

It was ok

All ok Need to Fix bathroom sink drain

All the reviews about this property owner being the Hostess with the Mostest are 100% on point. I made a very last minute reservation which she accommodated with the utmost grace. When the neighboring room kept me awake, she moved me to a different, quieter room. Again, with nothing but the utmost grace. The room was clean and tidy, the bed oh-so-comfortable. I will be back on my next trip to Sarasota. Thank you so much for the over the top hospitality. God bless you and your family.

I rented the 2 bedroom condo - The condo is a little outdated with the furniture it has but it was clean, everything worked. The staff was friendly and very serviceable. The area is very quiet and walkable distance to the beach. They provide 2 beach towels but they are standard towel size I recommend you bring your own. They do provide the very little sitting beach chairs. I definitely recommend the place for a short getaway.

Didn’t mind it at all. Close to the beach. Price point seemed a little off but the area really was beautiful

We liked the location. Its close to the beach and St Armands Square where there are restaurants and entertainment.

Our room was nicer than I expected, after reading several of the reviews. AC worked fine, shower water was cool, but weather was hot so we didn't mind. Hotel provides beach chairs, which we used and appreciated. Beach parking lots were packed, so we loved the location of the hotel. We would definitely stay here again--much cheaper than nearby alternatives.

Shower would not change to faucet, rust in the bathtub; no paper towels in the kitchen, no coffee filters

Everything was perfect! And one of the best things was the owner's understanding and help. Also, the great and nicest Alma orienting me about the area and more. I truly recommend this place for a very pleasant stay!!

Three star resort in a 5 star location.......basic clean resort with few extras but within walking distance of st armands circle.....no extra parking fees!

Perfect location for beach and shopping. Television remote didn't work and the lights flickered a lot and some outlets had no covers on them. Overall would stay again for price and location.

Communication was great! This is a very simple basic place to stay for the night. It is walking distance to the beach. The room was very small, but perfect just for one night. Parking was great and safe.
