“Drugs, Thugs and Prostitues”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012
4
people found this review helpful

If its drug dealers, thugs, and prostitutes you want then this is the place for you. I was there on Feb 8, there were dealers and sex workers in the parking lots, outside of rooms and a lot of people milling about. Since I was white and not buying their stuff I was stared at and felt fearful. No management around to control the activities. Later I found out this place has the reputation of the place on the North Trail in Sarasota to find 0 and drugs. If your a family or not into criminality go to the Quality Inn next door and avoid this place, even the ptomaine restaurant.

Stayed February 2012, travelled solo

Dear Guest,

Thank you for choosing Days Inn Sarasota Airport for your recent stay in our area. I am sorry it was not the pleasant experience you had anticipated.

Thank you for giving us a review, it is very much appreciated. Upon receipt of your review, the following steps were taken:

• Management was approached about the people you reported seeing in the parking lot. We discussed some sort of security system being set up that would make our valued guests feel more protected and hopefully prevent these encounters.

I hope that the next time you visit our area, you will once again choose to stay at Days Inn Sarasota Airport. We take our reviews very seriously, and I think you will be greatly pleased.

Sincerely,
Hotel Manager.

“Horrible!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2012

people found this review helpful

The Good: ok price for a 2 double bed room with a mini fridge and microwave and free WiFi. - $60/night Had hot breakfast - BUT you only got a choice of 1 egg and toast, 2 eggo waffles, cold cereal or a bagel. - not to exciting. =(

The Bad: Everything else... Toilet leaked, we think the room may have flooded before, the carpet was all wet and EXTREMELY dirty. The light switch didnt turn any lights on. The outlet at the desk for a computer or whatnot didn't work - so the lamp on the desk wouldnt work either. There was an electronic safe in the room but it didnt work either. (was charged for it! per day) The plug in the tub was broken off - kids couldn't use th tub. AND cockroaches!!!! a huge one in the bathroom and a smaller one crawled onto a pop can NASTY!!

Told them when I checked out (because we dscovered the more nasty problems at the end of the 2nd night (stayed 3nights, got there late the 1st so went straight to bed) So it would have been a huge inconvenience to move all of our stuff to another room - which would more than likely have the same problems.. AND it was Saturday night - new years eve, small chance finding a new hotel now... The manager was very rude and yelled at me about not saying anything earlier. Told him the problems are all there (gave him a list) and he could go see for himself. He promised he would and would call me and refund me with anything is wrong - never heard from him.. nothing. Bottom line: They suck.

“Go next door to the Quality Inn for about the same cost”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011

people found this review helpful

Mold in the bath, tub faucet leaking badly, two outlets non functioning, Extra charge for in room safe which mysteriously shows up on your bill when you check out. This is an old facility which has had some updating, but really needs some maintenance. Many other lodging options are available for about the same cost and offer far superior value.

“great time with family”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 November 2011

We had 4 rooms for a family vacation. The rooms were clean and staff did everything to make our stay comfortable. The manangement was great. They have a real good breakfast. It's not just muffins and juice. It's in a good location close to beaches. We will stay there again in the future.

Room Tip: THe pool side rooms are nice. It's nice to have morning coffee by the pool side.
