We had our stay there for the week-end. Quite a few of us ladies were there for a bowling tournament. Everyone was friendly and helpful if needed. I would gladly stay there again. Only thing I wish they would improve is there selection on their continental breakfast. It was your basic but other than that it was great. :0) Thank... More

I was hesitant to book here because of the reviews. Glad we did. It was quaint and peaceful. Very close to downtown Sarasota. The hotel is older but is right on a marina and it very peaceful and pretty. A good value for hte price.There is even a floating church by the marina!

I always thought that Ramada was a good name until I booked this place. I had two rooms, both smelled like smoke, they were outdated, there were putty marks on the walls, the property was not maintained. I felt like this was a hotel that should have been evacuated for renovations. They must have taken over some sub par hotel... More

On recent trip to Sarasota we stayed here one night. We totally enjoyed our stay as we were given room with balcony overlooking marina and little floating chapel. Went to Friday nite fish fry at Tiki Bar and enjoyed best fish in Sarasota while we listened to live entertainment. Olivia on frontdesk was most polite and accommodating, our room was... More

Got there at 5:30 PM I was quite worried about reviews showing this was in a bad area of town and not to go at night.

I forgot my id yet they still charged my credit card after not letting me stay there. The night manager was also very rude. I had to go to the Courtyard by Marriott 5 miles north and they were very nice... nothing like having to pay for two places in a given night. The place also looked like a dump... More

This is one of the nicer Ramada's that I have stayed in. Everything seemed to be in good clean condition. Its on a waterfront facing the marina which I thought was pretty cool. Rooms and the lobby are in good condition. The location is close to the airport but it is slightly outside of Sarasota, north on the US 41.... More

Our room was close to the marina, the pool, and the outdoor restaurants. It was great. We also enjoyed meeting travelers from Europe and parts of the U.S. Live music was a wonderful addition to the ambiance. Our room was newly refurbished. We need another chair, and it was immediately brought. Would return in a heart beat.

Ramada name and price for a motel. Room was clean and better than the others I've been to but the front lobby and layout of the hotel reminded me of a motel. Breakfast was really good with waffle machine. Location was nothing special kind of on a main business highway. Overall decent hotel for $80.
