As Ambassador Elite, we have had the opportunity to stay at many Marriott properties. This was our first stay here and it was a wonderful experience. The hotel is located right on a large marina with beautiful views. The suite was spacious, very clean, and bright. There is a restaurant on-site, Oak & Barrel, which has a great Reuben. There is a rooftop pool (small, but large enough to do laps). There is also a very busy roof top bar and restaurant - part of the Oak & Barrel. The fitness center has sufficient equipment, but could use a stationary bike. Parking is free at an indoor garage, very close to the hotel. Of great importance to us is the very professional and welcoming associates/staff. We experienced outstanding service at every level, with special thanks to Nikki, as well as to Kira and Armando. We are looking forward to our return visit in 2023 !!!!

While this is an older hotel, (paint on paint) we found the location was great, on the water walk, great pool and hot tube. Staff could not be any more pleasant and accommodating. We used the suite with two adults and 3 children. Sofa bed not bad (its a sofa bed). two queen were comfortable. We loved it.

The staff is great. Jasa and Chris were so helpful. When I checked in, the toilet wouldn't flush. Jasa offered me an opportunity to switch rooms. She also had maintenance come straight up to fix the toilet in my original room - so I stayed there. The rooms are ok, from a design/decor point of view. Air conditioning works well. Shower has good pressure. Parking is easy and convenient. The carpet, though, is, quite honestly, filthy, and not just in the guest rooms. I wear white socks. Walking across the carpet in the room left them really, really dirty. I dampened a washcloth and rubbed it over a very small section of the rug, just to test, and it was alarming. Management should, at the very least, have the carpets throughout the hotel cleaned. I know that this has been an ongoing problem, based on other online reviews. I can't recommend people stay there until that gets resolved. Also, the red chair in the room I stayed in was very dirty. I wouldn't sit in it. Once these issues are resolved, I would change my rating to 4 stars.

The Courtyard Sarasota at University Town Center is in a great location, within walking distance of Mall at UTC and Nathan Benderson Park. Well managed facility meets all Marriott/Bonvoy - Courtyard boxes incl. parking. Professional, efficient and friendly check-in. Room & bathroom are clean, spacious and quiet. Good water pressure in shower and fluffy towels available. Very good competitive price point and solid product. Would most certainly happily return.

This Home 2 Suites is located at the far end of a shopping plaza and has a large lake and park about a tenth of a mile from the entrance. The hotel offers free bike rentals for you to enjoy the park which is nice. First impressions send out higher end boutique beach hotel. For the price this place is amazing! Many guest were checking-in for a month or longer stay. The lobby is open and well decorated with a separate and equally open space for free breakfast and daily snack hour. The hotel gives you a pamphlet when you arrive to tell you of their wonderful amenities and times of availability as well as all the things offered nearby. Free yoga anyone? The suite was open with a nice kitchen including two burner stove, full size fridge, dishwasher and microwave. Seating area had a nice chair and comfy sofa. The bedroom was separated by an actual door and offered a desk and very comfortable beds with multiple plush pillows. The sink and counter area of the bathroom is separate from the shower and toilet, great for two or more people getting ready together. Nice closet with many wooden hangers and a safe. Overall great first impressions of cleanliness and the room smelled fresh. This is where the almost perfect comes into play. Later in our stay we noticed two things. One, the carpet wasn’t as clean as it appeared; leaving our feet black if we did not wear slippers. Two, you must get up with the sunrise. Even though the window treatments gave a clean beach vibe and the windows were privacy tented, they were far from light blocking. Not good for someone who likes to sleep in late. The laundry, gym and pool area were all exceptionally furnished! The laundry had nice high end appliances for 2 dollars a load. The gym offered Peloton products as well as other equipment. There is even a small basketball court. The pool however is the crowning glory. Located outdoors it was nicely sized and offered covered cabanas and group seating with very nice grills. Plan on staying here again for my next visit to the area. Great overall experience, just need to bring a sleep mask.

Exceeded expectations 👍🏻 Upon my arrival, I was warmly welcomed by the inn’s owner. I was very happy when I entered the room to find the floors weren’t carpeted, the room was clean, I was able to get restful sleep in a very comfortable bed. Thank you, Matt Erickson, for your kind attention to my reservation and requests during my stay. In addition to Matt and the owner’s excellence, I want to give kudos to the housekeeping staff. My stay was an excellent experience and a great value. Thank you! Peggy Akrigg

My boyfriend and I stayed at this location. Excellent, clean rooms and property. Best breakfast selection. The pool was heated, which my daughter enjoyed tremendously. Staff was very friendly. Some of the housekeeping staff didn't speak any English, but I was still able to get what I needed from them. I wish I got her name. She was so nice. Will definitely start staying at other locations.

It became obvious on check-in that the staff were pulling double or triple duty. Certainly as a result of staff shortages due to Covid, these folks were all pulling together to get things done. Not always available, there was always someone to find what you needed. The room was clean and the beds very, very comfortable. The breakfasts were good and well maintained. Julie, Holly and Jeff made my wife and I very welcomed.
