“Not What I Expected”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2011

I just joined the Choice Hotels Program and this was my first stay. I have always stayed at Holiday Inns in the past and expected a similar experience. What a disappointment this hotel was. The blankets looked like they were about 20 years old and my wife wanted to check out when we walked in. I carefully removed the blankets and put them on top of the wardrobe closet in the room. We wiped down the sink, toilet, phone, cable control and door handles with antibacterial wipes she had brought and were feeling good about the room. Then my wife went in to take a shower and found a dirty washcloth that was left behind on the shower rod. Needless to say, that didn't make for a great night and the next day we checked out. I wish I had read the reviews before we went, but it was near the Ringling Museum and the location and price were perfect. As one reviewer said, they are trying, but they have a long way to go.

“Great Customer Service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 June 2011

I traveled a long way and was exhausted when I arrived at this hotel after being treated horribly at a Bradenton Days Inn. The attendant behind the counter was very courteous and even gave me a discount for a late check in. The beds were clean and comfortable, and they were more than accomodating the entire week I stayed. It was a decent location and I would absolutely stay here again. The staff let me use their computer and fax machine throughout the week to help me with my buisiness. The housekeepers were very pleasant and quiet. The continental breakfast was basic but fresh. Two thumbs up.

“Horrendous!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 June 2010

Room carpet was soaking wet in front of bathroom door, possibly from clogged toilet. Room smelled bad. Had to request a change of room. Kids room, the bed was not made from last customer that used it. We requested clean sheets to do the beds ourselves, but front desk person did not now where they kept them. Had to use the room anyways because it was late at night. It was a disaster. We will never use a Confort Inn again.

“There are better places...but they are trying”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 March 2010

Not what I expected. However, I did report my issues to them and they "made my stay right". They are in new ownership and the transition is probematic. However, based upon their response to my concerns, and their friendly nature, I would stay here again. It is an excellent location.

“Great Value, Location, Service!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 November 2009

This hotel is convenient to lots of Sarasota attractions. It's your standard Comfort Inn, which is tidy, comfortable, economically-friendly and just a decent place to stay a few nights. The front desk agent was sooooo nice and helpful and even gave us ideas for sight-seeing and restaurants!
