Kompose Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"Everything was great. Except the bed squeak. The black frame squeak as you say at the end of the bed."

Quality Inn Bradenton - Sarasota North

10/10 Excellent

"It was a very pleasant stay for a week, some issues with renters who have no respect for others, but overall, I had a good experience. I’d stay again."

Lantern Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, affordable"

Golden Host Resort - Sarasota

10/10 Excellent

"This place was great! You are transported back to the 50s and 60s with the full Tiki Vibe! The rooms are clean and beds comfortable. The neighborhood is in the midst of a resurgence so it’s not going to be long before this area is much more expensive! The staff is outstanding and the Bahi hut is a great place to unwind! It’s not the luxury hotels that are right up the road, but the quirkiness of this place more than makes up for it and the staff will likely actually know your name! Thank you to everyone on the staff for a great stay!"

"Room was clean and shower was hot which was great. Property overall is dated and bathroom floor area was always a bit slippery even without taking a shower. Overall it was a good value compared to all other properties in the area. Only a few miles from downtown Sarasota and 20 minutes to Lido Beach. Would stay again if in area."
