Check-in was easy and quick. Resort attendants were very personable. Room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. We loved having the walk out patio to the pool. The Bahi Hut Lounge bartender made amazing drinks!

Very misrepresented. Run down old motel, a real rip off. Hotel bar had Karioke and live music so loud and late we could not sleep even with earplugs. Sheets did not fit bed. 3 mismatched pillows for a king sized bed. Funky old shower floor. Direct booking would have been cheaper than Expedia. Stay away.

The reviews were correct! Cool place!

I was surprised at how nice this place is. The previous reviews convinced me to stay, and I was intrigued by the retro-vibe in the photos. Check in was easy, the room was large, the bed was comfy, and the blackout drapes helped silence the noise from US41 and the airport. Might have to consider staying there again if I'm ever in Sarasota.

Bare bone room

If you’re staying just for the local area enjoyment and not in the room much ….sure it’s ok. No amenities, nothing extra just a room. Wear shoes because your socks will be black. Floors never cleaned. Shower curtain is too short so the bathroom gets flooded with water every time you shower.
Open electrical wires in kitchenette cabinet.
