La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Sarasota I75

We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights due to a cancelled flight at Bradenton Sarasota airport. The hotel doesn't present well in the lobby - it's very dated. The room was clean and the bathroom was in fine condition albeit dated. It'll do for 2 nights stay. Close to Walgreens.

Cleaning and fresh towels need to be requested at front desk. A pain to have to go get towels when needed. Old hotel. Breakfast ok. Was attacked by dog on 4th floor getting ice! Definitely not expected to encounter that! Pets are supposed to be on first floor! Will never stay at a Comfort Inn again.

The staff was superb! Edward at the front desk was patient, informative, friendly, and helpful. He was a font of information, including how we could access our hotel points account. The rest of the staff was available to help fill whatever needs arose, all in a pleasant manner. The room and facility were clean and comfortable. The lounge area on the second floor was an unexpected bonus. This hotel is a gem in the Sarasota area. We would stay there again,

We were guests October 8th thru checkout October 11, during Hurricane Milton. I’ve tried contacting the manager as requested by the front desk personnel about our room 313 during our stay. The window leaked and activity dripped rain water into our room. I could hear dripping and as I investigated the sound — I stepped in wet carpet. As there was no air conditioning in our room the carpet became smelly and gross. I did alert the front desk and I did ask for an extra trash can to collect the leaking residue, so as to not compound the problem. It looks as if this leak has been an issue for some time as the screws on the curtain track are rusty. Upon checkout I informed different front desk clerks of the issue and asked for a reduction of our bill, as the smell of the moldy carpet is highly offensive. I was directed that only Julie Samblanet could assist us, was handed her business card with her email. I’ve not had a reply (either in person & email) to any form of reply for resolution of compensation for unpleasant stay. I would caution every guest to inspect their room thoroughly and if one smells strong use of fragrant deodorant, be advised there may be a problem with unsanitary room. G. H.

First our suite was huge, that being said it had no furniture in it. Bed, Two chairs computer table and chair and 2 nightstands. Very poorly lighted, Jacuzzi tub was a joke. Jets basically spit but no jet action. Shower was horrible too. Could not get the water to come out of the spray. Rusted and almost scary to work with. We requested a table for our " suite" and were denied. We had no place to eat and since we have two dogs who like to announce every new person, like to eat in our room, hence the "suite" request. Oh and the hotel was not full so one could have been taken from another room for the two days. We even offered to move it. Nope! The young lady at the front desk was nice but offered differing information as did the gentleman. We were told late check out till noon was free and then it was 10 dollars till 1 and 20 dollars till 2 and 30 dollars to 3. Nope again. 2 is the latest. Unfortunately we are staying here next weekend as we are selling our home and having lots of open houses so this is just easier. Can't cancel the room next week so stuck with a mediocre accommodation and unhelpful staff. Look long and hard as this place is not a bargain at over $200 per night and is not at all a value.
