Ramada by Wyndham Venice Hotel Venezia
Had to get room key every time we returned to hotel. It was ridiculous. So somedays we had to do it 5-6 times a day. Pool looked clean but way too cold no one in it.

Hampton Inn & Suites Venice Bayside South Sarasota
I booked a room for two nights during spring break for my family—4 person with two beds and a sofa in the room pictures online, at about double the hotel’s normal rate $745. We arrived around midnight on March 19 after a long day of driving and playing at Busch Gardens. You can imagine how disappointed ...
