Hampton Inn & Suites Sarasota/Lakewood Ranch

"Staff was very courteous and helpful. Room was spacious (accessible room). The hotel is tucked behind a large and popular shopping area, but was easy to get to."

Extended Stay America Premier Suites - Bradenton

10/10 Excellent

"The staff provided excellent customer service and was cheerful and accommodating. The building was only a year old and the beds were comfortable. The rooms were spacious with full size fridge, microwave and stovetop burners. The staff provided a small coffee maker and offered to provide cooking items and table items, but my needs did not require those (I was only there one week). The parking areas were adequate but filled up by 6pm. Otherwise, no concerns. Location was very convenient for my purposes, and I will consider staying there again next year if I return to Bradenton, Florida. Special thanks to Yolanda!"
