Courtyard by Marriott Sarasota at University Town Center

Stayed here for one night, location was excellent and seemed like a good safe area. Lots of restaurants nearby and the mall of course. Easy access to the highways. 4 stars because while the room was clean, the shower could use a detailed clean, there was leftover hair and dried conditioner on the walls. The staff at check-in Tommy was friendly as well as the overnight FD staff member. We will definitely be back!

Near everything. Beautiful view for Christmas all around. Clean. Starbucks inside. A lot of amenities. Stores at walking distance. Mall. Gas stations. Fast food. Pool. Coffee maker, microwave, hair blower, towels, soap, shampoo, and conditioner, make up remover provided in the room. Ice machine in the floors. Gym, thermal pool tub, computers, sitting area, bar, starbucks at the hotel.

The front desk clerk, I believe, was Cindy. Was fabulous! So nice and extremely helpful. Great location! The only thing that wasn't pleasant, the bathroom was stinky even before I got into the room. And it stayed that way all night.

It was a very clean hotel. They had a good fitness center and our family loved the pool area. The staff were amazing, especially towards our kids. Lin at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. By far, our favorite was the bistro staff: Vicki, Sandy and Peggy. Not only was the service excellent but the food and coffee too! Thanks for the wonderful stay!
