We stayed here on New Year's Eve as a stopover on the way to Universal Orlando from Tennessee. I chose this hotel because it has an indoor pool, which is very difficult to find in this part of Florida! For the price we paid, I think we got a fair value. $89 plus tax got us access to an indoor pool and hot tub, plus a decent free breakfast. Unfortunately, the pool was much colder than I would have liked, and the hot tub was only lukewarm. However that didn't stop our kids from having a good time. I wasn't too crazy about the cleanliness or lack thereof in our room. The bathroom vent didn't work very well so the bathroom was dripping with moisture after a shower, and it took a loooong time to dry out. My daughter used a towel to dry the bathroom floor, and the towel had black streaks of dirt on it afterward. On a positive note, the breakfast was pretty good (not as good as Holiday Inn Express), and the lady attending the breakfast table was very nice and helpful - she offered to make our "self-service" waffles for us. Overall, our needs were met, but not sure I would stay there again.

Drove up from Sarasota for a convention the next day. Country Inn is shoehorned into the offramp greenspace so that you can stand in their parking lot and count the nosehairs of the folks getting off the interstate. Too close for me. Still, wanting to give them a shot as my experience from the corporation has been positive. I walked in to an empty lobby. And waited. Finally I left, drove to the next street and camped out at the La Quinta. Warm welcome, extra coffee, and a call from the front desk to ensure they had met my expectations. Ole!

We were traveling up I-75 with my kids. One is 2 and the other is 1. So, we asked for two cribs in our room.

When we arrived, the front desk told us that they only had one crib available. They said this despite an emply hotel parking lot. We had no other choice but to try and sleep with one of the babies in the bed.

It didn't work well. First, we tried to get the 2-year old to sleep in the bed with us; she wouldn't. So, we switched, putting the 2-year old in the crib and the sleeping 1-year old in the bed. The 1-year old woke up and would get back to sleep.

So, my wife tried calling the desk to ask them to double check for another crib. She got put on hold (this was at 11 PM). After sitting on hold for 30 minutes, my wife gave up.

We hardly slept because of the single crib issue. We woke up the next morning to leave and the parking lot was still empty. I guess they really only have one crib for a sizeable hotel.

Other than that, the hotel was okay. I guess it compared to a slightly-dated Holiday Inn. The free breakfast was your typical motel type -- nice to have, but nothing special.

I guess next time we're travelling, we'll pack an extra Pack-and-Play.
