We stayed at this hotel in December 2008 and because of our good experiences then, we booked the hotel for another pre-cruise night in October 2009. We had the kids-suite where there is a separated area with a twin bed and a bunk bed so our children each had their own space to sleep leaving the comfortable queen for the... more

Stayed here one night on a road trip across Florida. Really welcoming staff recommended a lovely restaurant nearby to us - and there was even a free shuttle to take us there and back! Room was very large - there was an extra partition with three childrens beds in which would be great for families. Free parking was included as... more

Stayed on 9/20/09 with spouse and niece pre-cruise. Booked 1 room with 2 Queen beds and price included parking for duration of 8 night cruise (total room + parking = $154). Arrived mid-afternoon, got checked-in and settled in right away. Front desk had list for anyone requiring shuttle to cruise ship; you could even pick from the times available (shuttle... more

We stayed at Country Inns & Suites on the night before our cruise, and it was a great choice. The rooms were small but sufficient (we always pack a separate night-before bag anyway, and never bring ALL the luggage into the room with us). The room was just what you'd expect in this price range: simple and clean. The pool... more

Absolutely loved the kids bunk beds. They had a separate are w/ their own tv w/ dvd. Clean room, but it smelled musty. Front desk called to see if room was o.k. I told them about the smell & all they did was apologize. Luckily I had a small can of air freshener so it was fine. Breakfast was good... more

I had high expectations for this hotel given the reviews and our prior stays at CI&S. Contrary to some of the reviews, I didn't find the staff friendly or helpful. I also didn't find the value that perhaps others did. The main issue in our experience was around a parking package we had purchased in advance of a cruise we... more

First off the front desk staff was great very friendly and professional. The room was great, and very clean. Special thanks to Vinny ( or maybe Vinnie) , who was great and was willing to answer questions from all visitors and always with a smile, seemed more like a good friend than hotel staff. The free breakfast well it was... more

We stayed here the night before a cruise. The hotel grounds are well kept and it is right by the port. We purchased the package with a room and parking our car during the cruise. The front desk staff was efficient. The room was in perfect order and the furnishings were nice, roomy space. There was a slight smell in... more

We stayed here prior to leaving for our Carnival Cruise on July 4. It was, of course a busy hotel. We arrived late at night from our flight from Melbourne. Check in was no problem...we had two rooms. However...we had requested non smoking rooms; we got them, but one of the rooms had been smoked in. We were offered another... more
