This is my favorite place to stay when I visit Nokomis and Venice. The suite I stayed in was clean and comfortable. Cindy and Dave are kind, helpful, and very welcoming. Thank you for the memories!
I’m very disappointed when we go there they say they rent the room to another people and we have reservation already so we have to leave and go to another place. I don’t recommend the place to no one very very disappointed.
Trying calling to let them know we would be arriving after 6pm for check in and no one answered left message with no response. Tried calling again later and again no answer and this time unable to leave a message. Got to hotel and stopped by a lady in the driveway that asked us our name and informed us she had no room for us that they were over booked. I asked why she didn’t call me back to let us know this, she informed us that the office number goes to the owner which never answers the phone or returns calls! She said so nothing I can do good luck finding a place as it’s spring break. We have stayed here several times before but under a different management and had no issues. I still have not heard back from hotels.com regarding my refund. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel
Most gracious and helpful staff. The AC unit in the room we booked was not operating optimally and they moved us to an upgraded room for no cost without even having to ask. Perfect old Florida motel experience. Not everyone's cup of tea, but perfectly met our needs.

Not in Sarasota
It is not in Sarasota! It is about a 25 minute drive to Sarasota. However, the prices are much more reasonable than in Sarasota. It was relatively convenient for the local. Parking was a problem.
I want to start on a positive note with the Manager,Cindy, and her husband David were so nice and helpful?
The bad part, is this place is disgusting! We had to shower with our shoes on, the couch was not a couch, it was a love seat that was stained. The TV didn’t work and the place was extremely small and outdated by 50 years! The pool was gross (nobody swam it the whole 10 days we stayed there). The furniture around the pool was all broken and rusted. We will NEVER be staying here again.
The worst part about it all was , we were in the “Suite”. I can’t imagine what the other rooms were like!!

The place is a half star motel at best. The resident in the other room had 7 pitbulls rooming free unleashed. The "hang out" area was filled with dog urine and dog poo. I left the place that day and have been demanding my refund. Expedia doesn't care about their clients they care for money only. Expedia doesn't care about their clients by offering garbage and dangerous conditions like this. Never using Expedia again.
The pictures of this property online looked very nice when I got to the property in person. It was absolutely terrible. I lived in that area for about eight years and I’ve never known of this hotel. It was absolutely terrible. I didn’t stay at the hotel, I actually found another place to stay. I don’t recommend this.
I arrived at the property for my two night stay that I had prepaid for and was told that they were overbooked. While glancing at the sheet of paper it looked as though there were 4 other people not getting a room. Emails and phone calls to the property go unanswered and 14 days later I’m still trying to get my money back. Can’t say what the rooms are like because I didn’t get one that I had reserved, but the property in general looked pretty run down. Don’t book here!
Seems like a hotels.com trend, but this hotel really goes by a different name...Nokomis Inn. Said they were overbooked, but I could have a "suite" with no AC. Considering the last-minute nature of this and the cool overnight temps, I stayed. The "suite" just meant more beat-up furnishings to enjoy. Parking is a nightmare. Somewhat of a residential place and far from a resort, unless it qualified during the Nixon administration.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
It’s a little dirty. No water pressure in the shower or sink. No one around. I needed toilet paper and had to hunt down a person. The office is always locked.
We arrived at this motel to find out that our reservation would not be honored because they were overbooked. I verified the week prior. This was during Spring Break, making it difficult to find a new hotel. Unbelievable.
I did not enter any rooms, but the grounds were disgusting. Nothing was maintained. The pool was filthy. One "tenant" had 6 dogs running around unleashed and the smell of poop was strong.
I have never left a negative review for a business before. Everyone has bad days....but this motel is a place to avoid, for sure!

I’ve stayed here twice now and both times were great!
The hotel was quiet and the service was attentive. The hotel was renovated in a thrift store kind of way. Structure and surrounding property was run down. It was in a good location for an overnight stay.
Didn't feel safe enough to stay. Left immediately. Sketchy people and man with 7pit bull dogs running loose. People who were displaced by the back-to-back hurricanes are living there and I really feel bad for them! I'm from Ft Myers and know how that feels...except they shouldn't run the place as a hotel. It's really rundown and unsafe.
Overbooked on day 1. Re-booked elsewhere. $$$ No comp.
Settled in on day 2. Excellent room but 5 nights - paid for 6.

I called at 3pm to let them know we were arriving late for our stay(plane was getting in at 9pm & we had a 90 min drive). Had to leave messages(no one answered or called back). We arrived at 11pm & the door was locked to office. Called & went straight to Voicemail again! Thankfully, there was a Holiday Inn close to this property that had a room available! Went the next morning and spoke to front desk person. She told us that Expedia overbooked them & there were No rooms available!! She was hoping someone would cancel. Well, thankfully Holiday Inn had room & we stayed there for our Vacation. Otherwise, we would have been stranded! Going on 10 days & still haven’t gotten our Refund(because Expedia Rep can’t get a hold of anyone there to verify this-imagine that!!!). Owner of this place poorly runs it & would not recommend if this I how they treat their guests!!!

Don’t stay here!
We never stayed here! Although we had reservations, when we got to the airport we called and this place was overbooked. Terrible for people who had a reservation!!!!!!
This place is a dump and no where near what the pictures show. The room we booked was unavailable so given another where there was blood on curtains and sheets as well as sheets. There was some kind of rodent feces on sheets. This place is disgusting. We left after talking to management who said we would get refund and never did. We are out over $500 for this booking and had to spend another $700 on other rooms. I don’t do reviews but after this treatment I had to, to try and save others the same inhospitable treatment we got. Shame on you for treating people this way and I hope I can can at least one person from making the mistake of coming to this property. Do not prepay your booking site, come have a look first, then turn and run. Hotels that will cost you 250 to 300 per night will be worth it.

I cannot rate this place because I am not getting my refund. It was overbooked by Expedia and Expedia has tried getting a hold of this hotel for several days and nothing is happening. I am out $400 and I didn’t even stay there. I would like this handled ASAP
