Americas Best Value Inn Sarasota Downtown

Great location, convenient to Gard de Lyon and the Bastile neighborhood. Plenty to do right there, and most major tourist stopps are a short walk away.

window was abit open. lots of holes on curtains, light peeked in...bathroom/tub cracks, need caulk.... poor air conditioning...

The room was not truly clean, markes on the wall, shower needs to be redone. Bed was very uncomfortable. the two chair in the room were very hard. According to my husband the place was a PIT. Would never stay there again.

Never come back

This hotel was the wisest hotel I ever stay, very dirty, did not even wanted to touch anything, windows and doors so dirty you barley can see through. Smell in the hallway horrible. I would never ever will recommend to anyone to book this hotel. Breakfast was a joke, I have no words.

Publix was across the street which made getting drinks and food without ubering it and a Taco Bell next door for those drunk munchies. Rooms were a little run down and bathroom small but you get what you pay for. Overall, it’s a place to sleep because we were out for the whole day and night.

Bed was ok. No tv. No phone connection, unable to reach front desk. Went to front door and nobody answered there either. Asked about late checkout when checking in, the woman stated I would have to call in the morning. The a/c dirty and emitting a musty/moldy odor that triggered allergies..

They ve done a nice job renovating the place

The hotel smelled like urine, the hall ways smelled like urine and the front desk lady is very rude.

The highlight was the friendly staff and pool area. Dont have high expectations for the price but the exterior of the building is better than the very very old and in places dirty interior of halls and rooms. Bathroom door had dirty hand marks on inside so cleaning questionable….beds were clean and comfortable though…

The woman at the check in desk told me when I asked for a second towel “ that I needed to stop misbehaving and go to bed”

At 5:45 in the morning while sitting in my room alone (I am 52yo woman), my door was unlocked and started to open. I yelled NO and the person left. The latch stopped the door from opening the door too far.

I called the front desk—I was shaken. A very calm woman said she hadn’t made any key cards for my room. As if I was making it up.

The afternoon worker also said I must have given a key to a friend. I was traveling alone and only had one key made.


I feel no sense of trust in they key card setup at this hotel.

I really wont go back there. Room was old, smell old, dark carpet, tv wasnt working, towels look old, wasted, like dirty look, and i left with a itch in all our bodies. Nothing like the pictures.

The location of this property is excellent. Across the street from a supermarket and walking distance to a art museum and a few fast food options, short drive to downtown and the beaches; Everything else leaves much to be desired. The property could use an update and remodel, basically good for a night or 2

Small bed , smelly room .

Mi estadía fue una noche era lo que imaginábamos estábamos de paso pero la habitación tenía olor a humedad. El resto buena ubicación y atención amamble

Location and cost per night was very good.

Check in was great, i chose that hotel for the price and only 10 minutes from siest key beach. The room was clean but smelled weird and odd. Wife and i couldn't place what it was. It wasn't pleasant but wasn't horrible either. The breakfast was very um different. Lil boxs of cereal. A mini fridge with a gallon of milk and gallon of o.j. eggis and bread in baggies. But what really was a turnoff was contractors doing roofing work on a Sunday morning and before 8am. Was not pleased with that.

The hotel is across from Publix which I used after checking in and before leaving. I was working a craft festival so I look for budget friendly. I would pay a little more next time to get a more updated hotel. The hotel was clean as it can be for being dated and worn. Felt safe, bed was clean so it worked for me.

Breakfast was a pass on
Only got coffee and OJ
PUBLIX next to motel great plus
Pool was good
Bed wasn’t the greatest
For a 100$
Get what you pay for it was
All we needed for a one night stay
I would shop around next Sarasota visit
