I booked the room through Expedia, then once I arrived I was told there was an additional deposit of $100 needed to stay. I was caught extremely off guard since there was not any previous mention of the additional deposit throughout the booking process.

Pictures online were not like the room we got. Our room was old with plaster patches on the walls, mold around the tub and water stains on the walls and furniture. The dresser and both had broken drawers so we just lived out of our suitcases for 4 days. The dead bolt to the main door was broken and had to be fixed and the double door leading to the pool was also broken in that the second door was not firmly secured so that you could easily have kicked it open. There was no phone or facial tissues in the room. Other than being old the room seemed clean so it was livable but not as advertised or worth the price. The pool was warm but closed early at 8pm. Definitely not the same as the pictures on the website. Pictures are either old or for a renovated room. Also, the website mentioned golf as if it was an amenity but there is no golf.

Island Sun Inn may not be a boutique hotel, and it's certainly not 5-star. But the property and rooms are clean, the pool is heated, the shower was great. Most of all, the staff - ALL OF THEM - are helpful and kind and just wonderful. It's close to beaches and close to shopping. I would stay here again!!

The price point of this motel doesn’t match what you get. The property and rooms are very dated. The toilet was shaky, there was plaster on the ceiling that needed fixing, something sticky was left on the table that I had to wipe down and I found a dead mosquito in the bath tub. Didn’t make for a very pleasurable stay.

My stay in Venice Fla.

It's not the Ritz, but it is comfortable. I asked for a quiet room and the hostess gave me a room that worked well. The couple running the motel: The woman is very pleasant, accommodating and smiling. Her husband... Well he could use a little polish. The place could use a little TLC, for instance the doors to the units are peeling and could use a paint job. Anyhow, the room was sufficiently large and mine looked out on a courtyard. All good.
