Love this hotel but disappointed the rooms were not on the marina side. I prefer the rooms on the ground floor facing the marina. The bar and grill is awesome.
Room was clean. We had two queens with a bunk over one of the queens so not exactly as pictured in the listing, but no inconvenience to us. Close to airport, so be prepared for morning flight path take offs! Would stay again.
The property, Ramada Inn Sarasota on the water was dated and run down. If you're into the biker scens, heavy tattoos, beer gut drinkers, rock and roll and country music, heavy cigars and cigarettes smoking, then this is for you. The room smelled very stale as we had to buy scented candles and incense to tolerate the smell. The linens were from the 80s and its location was near nothing. There were no restaurants for breakfast or dining, entertainment, such too far from the action. We communicated with the owner and get a simple apology that ssadisfied none of our concerns. We won't go there again! Zero stars...
