“Nice accomodations newer property”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 25, 2013

This was a nice property to stay at and the rooms were nice and breakfast buffet very nice. In life to me it all boils down to people and the manager here Chris Sears was the kind of person you wish you had as a neighbor as he was very personable, accomodatng and just a really nice guy that went the extra yard for you too. Great Stay.

“Rooms better than expected”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 23, 2013

A bit tired on the outside, the hotels rooms themselves looked recently upgraded and were lovely. Hard to find because located behind Cracker Barrel restaurant on Cortez. Lots of shopping and restaurants along Cortez. About 10 minutes to beach. Got great seniors rate.

“Good Value, great service and convenient location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 18, 2013

This was our second time staying here. Rooms are nicely appointed and well maintained. Lots of free parking. Personalized service - they did not have peanut butter at breakfast as they did last year - but Dan gave me his own personal jar of peanut butter every morning when he saw me. Close to restaurants, beaches, Sarasota and convention centre.

“Best Best Western ever”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 17, 2013

The rooms in this Best Western are beautiful and comfortable. The hotel is, I believe, 5 years old but it is in really good shape. It looks new. The rooms are quiet providing for a good night's sleep. The staff is quite friendly. I would recommend anyone to stay here.

“Great hotel and staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 10, 2013

This was a great hotel and one of the better ones i have stayed at. The staff from Chris on down was really friendly. The room was great. The only issue I had was that the internet was really slow for some reason. But other than that it was an enjoyable stay.

A note for travelers - the hotel is behind the cracker barrel. Easy to pass hotel and not realize it. Did it twice myself...
