"The hotel was a great location for those that want to visit Siesta Key Beach... Much more affordable than most of the property rentals that physically border the beach... In addition the hotel is conveniently located across the street (Walking Distance) from major retail, banking, & grocery stores including Walgreens, Bank of America, Publix, Marshalls, Ross, Nordstrom Rack, Sephora, restaurant outlets such as Longhorn Steakhouse, Panera Bread, Five Guys, and Hooters... However, you will likely won't dine at any of those places as Siesta Key has many small restaurant businesses that are cute and have good food options, particularly the Seafood Restaurants (Fresh Fish) and Breakfast Spots. The continental breakfast was okay, the rooms are very clean, the pool is decent, however, the property areas to be a former motel in which Hilton renovated. The carpet that lies outside the building and infront of each hotel room is old and odd, plus the hotel elevator can use an upgrade. Love the warning about the Love Bugs inside the elevator. I think this property would be a better gem if the hotel had additional renovations, more alignment with transportation companies for guest travel options to the Sarasota-Bradention Int'l Airport if you are catching an early flight (Uber/Lyft seems remote at 4:00am in the morning). Other than the hotel exterior and transportation to the Airport, no complaints really... It served a purpose which was convenience and I had a beautiful time!"
