Older establishment, but a nice place to stay. Centrally located to many attractions. The pool was excellent! Free breakfast was okay, our main complaint was seeing a male memer of the hotel staff restocking the donuts and bagels with his bare hands, no sanitary gloves. Because of that, we will not stay there again.

Booked this hotel based on AARP recommendations, absolutely horrible!!! First room given was about the size of a cruise ship inner cabin, outdated and danky. We went down to front desk and requested another room(young lady a desk was very helpful). This room was larger but still fit in the motel category, plumbing was not affixed to shower wall, paint...

We've never had a bad experience in a Sleep Hotel. I wonder about some of these bad reviews. If there is a problem in your room, just report it! Unless it is sold out, they will be happy to move you. Our room was very clean and the bed and pillows put us right to sleep! We were concerned the... More

Stayed one night. The hotel is basically in very poor shape inside. The stairs leading tlo the 2nd floor are very noisy. The room door handle was not working properly, had to get the front desk clerk to assist. The room smelled awful. The bathroom was in very sab shape; no trash can, the tub was dirty with mold, the...

The Sleep Inn is right by the Sarasota/Bradenton airport, is almost secluded in its location, with palms and vegetation all around, and surprisingly quiet. Didn't hear planes at all. The room wasn't real large, but was pleasant and clean, with fairly simple decor. Good TV service and WiFi connection. The nicest feature was the spacious walk-in stall shower. Breakfast was... More

I had been to this hotel in past years and found it quite decent. This year was different. To begin with, the King Sized bed room was very small, with the bed taking up most of the room. There was only one chair, and it was obvious the room was intended for one rather than two people. My wife's jewelry... More

I asked for an updated room and was very pleased with it. The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean. I did not see any bugs as the other reviews talked about. I would have liked a refrigerator in the room for dinner left overs. The owner was very friendly and polite and we felt that he was... More

Pathetically dirty and the owner is the rudest person I've ever met. Not only do they overcharge your credit card, but will argue over and over about it. Avoid this place at all cost. Roaches in the room, food was horrible, etc.

From an unbiased perspective, the front desk was very helpful and efficient, the rooms were on the small side but clean, and the free breakfast was palatable. This is probably an acceptable motel/hotel to stay at especially if you're not planning on too much luxury and if you spend most of your time not in your room. The one negative... More
