#negative #I was disappointed with the Value for Money, Mosquito Control Measures, Corridor Soundproofing, Nearby Activities, Nearby Restaurants, Room Size; Summary: If you don't want to be intimidated by the deposit and then get angry, absolutely don't live. First of all, it is very wrong to collect the deposit. Obviously, most hotels in the United States only use credit cards to collect the deposit, but this hotel strongly recommends that we pay the deposit in cash (in fact, it is to prepare for the non-refundable deposit later). At that time We paid cash. Then when we checked out the next day, after the hotel staff came to check the room, they began to blackmail us, saying that because there was water outside the bathroom door, and then the wall outside the bathroom door would be damaged if it got wet, so they wanted us to compensate. Why do we think it is extortion? First, we have stayed in so many hotels, and we have never seen any claim for compensation because of water on the bathroom floor or outside the door, and this hotel has a shower room instead of a bathtub, and the floor of the shower room is covered with water-proof tiles. It is very short (about one slipper height), and the shower in the bathroom has a large amount of water, so no matter how you wash it, water will spill out. Second, as a hotel, how can you install a wall that will be damaged by water at the entrance of the bathroom, not to mention the situation that the water overflows, won't the water vapor come out of the guest after taking a shower to damage the wall? What makes me think that the hotel is a repeat offender is that after they talked about the problem of water seepage, they immediately said that the damage to the wall must be more than 500 dollars, but because he felt that they were also responsible for this situation, so he only deducted us. The deposit is only $100. After we were talking with him, he called the cleaner to dry the ground, and it was too late for us to take pictures and leave evidence. After that, the process of discussing this matter with the hotel manager was also very unpleasant. First of all, we said that the bathroom would leak water outside the door, and your shower room design also has problems. He said that we should tell him about this problem when we check in and then apply for a replacement. house. Then I repeatedly emphasized that this is the law of Florida, and said that they would call the police to arrest us. I very much suspect that this routine is to bully new tourists who come to the beach, even the yellow race. First, the cash deposit is charged so that you cannot let the bank intervene and freeze, Then it is bullying you need to hurry, worry about trouble, don’t want to call the police, and finally intimidate when you encounter difficulties. We don’t know how many people finally admit that they are unlucky and give up their deposits. By the way, in the end, we wanted to ask him for an instruction manual and a proof of the reason for the deduction of the deposit, but he only gave the proof of the deposit collection, and refused to sign and seal it.

Comfortable clean motel. Weather was chilly while we were in Sarasota so the fact the outdoor pool was heated was much appreciated for an evening swim when we arrived. Friendly greeting on reception.

I personally really liked the pool and or area around the property, it was really nice and definitely had a good atmosphere to it. The staff was also super nice and helpful the only thing that I had a problem with was the cleanliness in the room. My partner and I always wore shoes inside just because of how dirty the floor was. The bedding was fine until we removed the comforter and found old stains/burn holes on it. Same condition for the pillows as well so we ended up using our own bedding. There were dead bugs in a few places and the floorboards were pretty nasty too. There were a few spots in the shower where mold was and the floor in the bathroom was also very dirty. Dust and debris everywhere on top of stained towels. The bedding and towels did smell clean but they were just not clean enough for my liking/comfort. The tabletops and sinks were moderately clean as well as the toilet so no problem there. Last but not least, the inside of the curtains also had a few questionable stains that I felt uncomfortable with. Overall, the condition of the room definitely wasn’t the best and to say it was dirty is a bit of an understatement. Other than the room my partner and I we’re satisfied with the property as a whole as well as the staff just not the room.

Inside the room was great. Still needs a bit of work but was clean. Terrible music at the tiki bar both nights

The ac could not heat. The phone did not work. Check in was a disaster and I got no upgrade or complimentary drinks. Also the $100 deposit which they said they would return is pending to be charged on my AmEx card account.

This is a motel in the classic sense. You can park in front maybe 5 feet from your front door. Inside, it captures the mid century feel with the updated decor. My unit had the refrigerator and microwave just like the photos showed. Had my own A/C unit with a real thermostat. Walk-in shower was a nice modification. I'm sure they were tub/showers originally. The whole place was very recently renovated and it is very clean and sparkly! And a great bargain too. And as a final note, one of the most comfortable beds I've slept on in my travels. It's not 4 star. It's not supposed to be. But it really reminds me of family trips when I was a kid. And it was quiet during my stay too.

Our stay at Golden Host had its pros and cons. The pros: very comfortable bed, quiet room, functioning refrigerator and microwave, responsive to needs, paperless check in check out. The cons: housekeeping was spotty, no coffeemaker when we arrived, flickering outside light in parking lot at night, condition did not quite line up with pictures, older property in a not great neighborhood. Closet hanging rod rusted. Also, no breakfast provided. Most of these were addressed. BUT, the worst was that around 8:45 am, we were woken by a loud noise which turned out to be a crew resurfacing the walkways outside our rooms. Mgt informed me the staff was supposed to let us know this was going to be taking place (which did not happen with us), but that early on a Sunday?!! I was planning to give a higher score before the last issue. Sorry.
