Spark by Hilton Sarasota Siesta Key Gateway

Spark by Hilton Sarasota Siesta Key Gateway

10/10 Excellent
"We loved our stay. The hotel is only less than 10min drive to the beach The pool with a bar was a big plus for us, after 3 hours driving! Lol The hotel is clean, the breakfast is nothing too much but was good - I missed cheese, ham, bacon and milk, for example, but it wasn't a big deal. The room is very clean, but the curtains didn't covers the windows very well and for me (light sleeper) the room wasn't dark enough and I had some trouble to sleep, ai had to put a face towel on my face to be able to sleep... The shower is very weak and this was a head ache to wash my hair (I have a big and lot of hair!). And, the room didn't have a microwave or soap at the sink - didn't understand why! Overall, is worth the money and it is a good stay."
