Pat is an amazing person, good customer service, but the place is old, there was a water leaking from upstairs bothered us, tv was not working and I had to park my car overnight(this was not nice). Anyways I will stay again.

The location and size is awesome! It's a bit dated but the beds were comfortable enough. There were no beach towels so make sure you bring some. The biggest disappointment was that there were no paper towels or dish towels in the kitchen. Easy walk to St. Armand's or to the beach.

Excellent location! Within walking distance to shops/dining and the beach. The unit itself could use a little refresh (especially the appliances). We were missing quite a few basic things - soap, paper towels (or kitchen towel), sponge to clean dishes, etc.
Would recommend based on location.

My second stay at this motel. This is a no frills bungalow type motel. It’s older, but some of it has been updated. Very clean and friendly when I had to call. No attendant is on duty. And it depends on who is also staying there as to the noise level. Great location though!!!

Dead bugs on bathroom counter, bathroom sink clogged, water in sink never got hot. Save your money and go elsewhere!

Likely the least expensive hotel on Lido Key, so expectations need to be adjusted accordingly. That said, my room was clean, the bed comfortable, and staff very helpful. Good value all things considered.

Older property, small room. Our night was filled with killing mosquitoes in the room. Our only day this week off after a company function AND 7AM IN THE MORNING, CONSTRUCTION NEXT DOOR, hammering, power saws, etc. No ability to sleep in. I know the owner cant control, it, but with thin non insulated windows, no weather stripping on the door, it was loud . The bed was comfortable. For the price was disappointed.

The place needs cleaned better. The bathtub has mold in the corners the tub mat is filthy with hair the windows and shades are so dirty that you can’t see out of them. The intake vent grill is filled with dirt. I think with a little work the place could be nice. Probably won’t be back

This hotel is a bit of Old Florida tucked into a neighborhood that is full-on bougie. The decor and furniture feel like they are straight out of the 1960s. We loved that part of it. The flip side is dealing with locks, faucets and windows that can be fussy, as well as televisions that have seen better days. But who comes to Lido Key to watch TV? The staff is friendly and helpful and the place is clean. The location can't be beat.

Great location,less then five minute walk to beach in vey nice neighborhood. 7 minute walk to center of town with food,drinks and shopping. No need to drive. You can walk everywhere. Or bring a bike. Lots of exploring to do..

It was just okay. Coffee cups were dirty, only one wash cloth and the sink drained very slowly.

Our room had a maintenance problem which we were notified of on our 2 hour drive to Sarasota. We were offered another room free of charge for the inconvenience. Very nice gesture.

Check in was easy. There was a bit of confusion when we got to our room but not the fault of the resort. Someone took our room assuming it was theirs. But it was quickly fixed and we were moved to a different room. You can walk to the beach or shopping. Quiet and safe. We had the petite room and it was fine for what we needed it for, sleeping. Wish the bed was a king but the queen worked. Would stay there again.

Could be a beautiful place to stay. But… was very run down. Trash piled along side of bldg that was the view when the blinds were open. Ants running all over. Couch so broken down when you sat in it.. it was difficult to get up. Bed linens were dirty. Felt like sand or something in sheets. Over all not at all what we expected or what it could be with proper care!!

Excellent place to stay. We've been there many times and always is good. Clean, seclude and closed to Saint Armand and lido beach (less than a 5 minutes walk). Short drive to Siesta Key (19 minutes). Communication with Patricia was excellent. She did great. Thanks!

Staff i spoke with was very kind and helpful in letting us check in early due to needing somewhere to go after our flight was cancelled.
Outside of that, and it being in a great location, the room and property was in severe need of updating and cleaning.

Wonderful staff and location! Would stay here again!

We needed a last minute reservation and luckily found Lido Islander. It is a quaint group of condos with beachy decor. Everything was clean and neat. Short walk to the beach or to St Armands Circle. Would definitely stay again.

Several roaches in the room. TV did not work. TV not well aligned to the wall. Hanging cloth retractable cord in bath tub was broken. Disorganized side of property where beach supplies kept. Constant use of washing machine on premises by staff-noisy.

It was Fantastic! Everything about the cottage was perfect! We can't say enough great things about this place and the staff. We stayed in a lovely 1 bedroom cottage. It was neat, clean and a perfect location, close to the beach, shopping and restaurants all within walking distant. Clean bedding, towels, coffee & coffee maker, pots& pans to cook, even the fridge was nice and cold. They supplied beach towels, chairs and even beach toys for the kiddos. They had everything we needed to make our trip absolutely WONDERFUL! We can't thank you enough for upgrading our room. We'll be back for sure and highly recommend Lido Islander Inn. Thank you so much, we had a really perfect vacation thanks to you and the staff!

The space is in the perfect location around a block from the beach and a couple of blocks walk to St Armand's circle. The outside of the building does look a little worn but when you get inside the rooms are bright and clean. The communication was super fast and responsive. You are getting an incredible location for an excellent price. There are no beach towels but there is community beach toys, boogie boards, carts, and some soccer/volley balls to use as well.

Property was nice but shows signs of age and wear. Everything was clean. We asked for clean towels a few days in and we’re only given 2 towels, no hand towels, bath mat, or wash cloths. We should have been given new towels each day for the price we paid for one small room.

Very cute and clean… perfect walking distance to Lido public beach and St Armand’s circle. The bed was comfortable and it was cold enough in the room for sleeping!
