Breakfast in the cafe was delicious and the staff are incredibly warm and welcoming. Thank you to Jessica for hosting us! ##### Jessica S. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Bryan M. Jun 14, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Good Location with Quirks and Noise Location is part of 3 buildings with multiple rooms on site. Room directly above this one. It is centrally located for getting to Sarasota & Siesta Key. Access code is with coffee shop. Positives: Staff is very friendly & prompt. We interacted with several, including Jessica (the owner), and each one was pleasant and helpful. Restaurant onsite (not the coffee shop - we never made it there) was quaint & rustic. Dinner was delicious & we ate every bite. Staff even set us up at a reserved table of our choosing after check in. The stage & band are just outside your door. We had a reserved table just behind & to the side of the band. Owner left a bottle of wine which we enjoyed while watching the band. Nice touch. Good storage, unless you want to use your suitcase instead of unpacking everything. A folding luggage table would be a nice addition, but not a deal breaker. Negatives. This room has 4 doors in it. 3 will likely give you some light at bedtime. The bathroom door is 1 (we'll get back to this one). Then there is the PITA one, the one behind the headboard. It leads to the stairwell to the upstairs room & the light was on 24/7. At night, this door lit up like a bright yellow rectangle. It also transmits the noise of anyone taking the stairs to your restful noggin at night. Entry door has attached horizontal blinds over the window that don't cover the window flush. Someone covered some panes, but those last 2 on top let the street lamp outside cut across the face of the person sleeping on the side closest to the bathroom. We hung something over the blinds. The last door leads to the laundry room. Another bright yellow rectangle of light if this light doesn't get turned off. Luckily, you can access the laundry via your room to shut it off. There is AC in the room, but it's a wall unit on the other side of the room from the bed. Annoying, the bed is tucked back a little, making air flow poor to the head portion of the bed. Worse, if you leave that bathroom door open, you block the air. It takes a lot for that unit to overcome FL heat. Warm until around 2 am at full blast on most nights. If someone is upstairs, you will hear EVERY step they take. If they take the stairs, same thing. We had a night owl. No cable in room. Firestick only with a poor connection & few choices. Under bed was super dust bunny farm. Lack of decor in room. No shower mat for floor. Trash can lid broken. Onsite food options closed M-W. Some road noise. ##### Bryan M.

The Review is quaint, quirky and fun. The BEST staff ever. Very accommodating and room was clean and comfortable. Along a busy intersection so light sleepers be aware….

Parking was extremely limited. Housekeeping was non existent and whomever attempted to make the bed prior to our arrival needs a lesson in bed making. The property needs maintenance and exterior attention. Very quaint but bordering shabby. Not worth the room rate at roughly $250 a night. ##### Tim R.

Mar 22, 2019 #### Quaint, comfortable, convenient location This is an older, historical property that has been nicely transformed into a B&B. The location is on a busy street but very convenient to activities in Sarasota area (such as the Ringling museum and Baltimore Orioles doing training games), Armand Circle, and the beach. There is a public park across the street which was convenient for walking our two dogs. The owners were very friendly. Our efficiency unit had a full kitchen which was great because there is a Publix market within walking distance. ##### Terrence K. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terri D., Evans Jan 2, 2019 #### Great Experience For a couple, this is an ideal location! We had the bayfront park across the street, and it was an easy walk into downtown Sarasota. I loved being able to walk right next door and grab a latte or a glass of wine. Having live entertainment right outside our door was also a plus. The staff was great and provided anything we needed with a smile! ##### Terri D.

This small sized apartment with a kitchen, queen bed (which is very comfortable), large screen TV, loveseat, upholstered chair, etc. is as lovely as it looks. Our stay met all our expectations. The coffee shop and beer/wine shops next door provided easy access to delicious refreshment, and when warm enough, an opportunity to relax on the patio between the two buildings. Jess, Kim and their staff could not have been more helpful and when I arrived with an injured elbow Laurie took expert care of me. A park across the street has sidewalks that lead to the bay about a block away. The mile walk to the downtown worked well for us. This location is easily accessible to everything. Be sure and order a meat/cheese tray from the beer/wine shop, go to First Watch for breakfast and Owen's Fish Camp for dinner! We loved our time in Sarasota at the Reserve! ##### Sharon W. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Diana S., Fort Worth, Texas Feb 23, 2018 #### Great hosts! We had a great time staying here. All of the staff (including the owners) are amazing and go out of your way to make your stay a memorable one. The rooms are very spacious and clean and have all the amenities you need for a long visit. My one comment is that the stairs are very steep to the upstairs units so if you have any concerns about that request a lower unit. Thanks guys we will be back! ##### Diana S.
