I grew up in this area and passed this location often and never considered it. When visiting, I thought I would. There are two things that make this area -- 1) The location -- if you want to get to a lot of things, this puts you in the middle - Sarasota, Bradenton, etc. 2) The small waterfront is super charming -- there are some picnic tables, grab some take out and eat it by the water. As far as the room goes -- it was lovely. It is a condo at the hotel. It did not look like the picture, but it had a bunk on one side and regular bed for the other.
