Overall, a very pleasant day!

Love the location and the breakfast is excellent.

Our mattress sloped toward the headboard so we both woke up with very sore backs.

Our stay was pleasant and we enjoyed exploring the city and beaches of Lido key, Long Boat and AMI
Cons:

The food we ordered from room service could have been better cooked. The sweet potatoes were still hard and a bit undercooked and it was to pricey for the amount of food provided.

Beautiful hotel with friendly staff
Pros:

Beautiful, clean, exceptionally friendly staff and very comfortable beds!

Cons:

The valet only parking option was very expensive for an already pricey hotel room. It was not convenient to have to have your car brought up every time you wanted to use it.

Pros:

Good location. Nice rooms, very good restsurant.

Cons:

Your room charge on the bill was totally incomprehensible and did not represent the expected charge. After my query the bill was adjusted to the proper amount. Being in the hotel business for many years, and after a number of discussions with one of your supervisors, I strongly urge you to than correct your system to one that is comprehensible to your customers. Other than that our stay was very nice and the staff and facilities were 1st
Rate.

L'odeur du tapis dans la chambre était trop forte et nous avons dû changer de chambre après une nuit
Pros:

Piscine bien située

Cons:

The smell of the carpet in the room was problematic
L'odeur du tapis dans la chambre était très forte sans doute à cause de l'humidité ou encore des produits utilisés. Nous avons dû changer de chambre avec l'accord apprécié du personnel à la réception

Family wedding in Sarasota.
Pros:

A lovely hotel, the staff was great, location great.

Cons:

I signed up for a partial view room and based upon the pictures I thought i was getting a partial view of the ocean. What i did get was an interior view of the circular driveway and valet parking area. I called the front desk to ask and they said that’s what I signed up for. The description was very misleading. It didn’t end up mattering too much because i was at wedding events most of the time, but given I paid almost $1,400 for three nights i was disappointed.
