There were temporary caution lines blocking front parking spaces and the front doors. Had to crawl under the lines to get in or out of hotel. Front desk clerk was nice but so soft spoken it was hard to understand him. He was, though, efficient and covered everything.

Only one ice machine and asking for a new bag or anything seamed to be a bother. The hot tub wasn't clean ot hot. The pool was nice. The breakfast was also fine. I've stayed here before and was really happy with it that's why I came back. I don't know what happened. It went downhill 😕.

Friendly staff, but the web site should have warned about on going construction. Lobby was under renovation, literally under construction. Breakfast was served, but carpenters and elections working within a few feet. Parking lot full of construction vehicles and storage containers.

This property is a dangerous construction zone. We were not made aware of the condition of the hotel. There are many tripping hazards, construction debris, dust, tools, and noise. We arrived at night and there was NO lighting in the parking lot. We thought it was closed, there was no signage. The pool is closed, the breakfast area was disgusting because the tables were covered with white construction dust. Refund requested.

This hotel is under construction. For the amount of money, I spend per night Holiday Inn Express should be ashamed. The only reason I was in Bradenton was to attend my brother's Celebration Of Life. I'm not a spring breaker!! In general, the room was nice but spacious and the front desk clerk was very nice, and apologized for all the materials and dust.

The lobby and some floors were under construction. The smells were highly overwhelming. The rooms were fine, breakfast was great, but wouldn't stay here again during construction. It's probably going to be great once it's done. AC was super loud and gave us trouble during sleep.

The room layout of our room was strange. It had two bedrooms and a living room, but the living room was a dark little carve out of the other rooms with no windows. It was not a layout I typically think of with a two bedroom suite, and not a place where you would want to spend much time. A room diagram would have been helpful during booking.

I have stayed at this hotel on more than one occasion and I choose it above all because the staff are so helpful, friendly and cooperative, my only complaint is that it gets a lot of sun through the bedrooms windows in the morning, it needs thicker curtains, something else I would like to say is that it is very clean, there are no unpleasant odors, and very safe, I would stay again even if I woke up at 6:30 am due to the sun coming in through the bedroom window

There was a pond out behind the hotel which was pretty. I enjoyed taking walks around the hotel and seeing all the lizards. The pool/spa was really nice. Breakfast was always really good. It was quite noisy at times (especially at night), the room wasn’t sound proof at all. There were gaps beneath the doors. I would definitely stay there again. Besides it being noisy at times, it was one of the better hotels I’ve stayed at.

We loved that we could not hear the incredible loud people out in the hallway and other rooms, must be great noise insulation! Breakfast was good overall, could have been more food choices. In our room, housekeeping did not remove food trays, clean spills off the small tables, and left pillows on the floor. Overall the large 2 bedroom room was great, spacious, and loved the large TVs.

This is a very nice hotel. It is either brand new or finishing up with renovation as some work was in progress. Our room was perfect. It was nicely furnished, clean, comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was well-done, offering an array of dietary options suitable for most people. The area was clean and well laid out. I would have given the hotel 5-stars except for the fact that our room was not serviced during our two day stay. We left our room at 8:00am and returned at 5:00pm to find our towels still on the bathroom floor, the beds not made, the trash can full of trash, etc. The front desk clerk said that they were short-staffed and apologized. The clerk gave us towels for the second night, but we were on our own for the remainder of the items. I hope that this was an anomalous occurrence rather than standard practice for a guest staying two nights. Aside from that, you would do well to plan to stay at this hotel when visiting the Bradenton area right on I-75.

When I arrived at the hotel, the young man working at the counter said can I have your identification and credit card? I had already paid online so I assume that he wanted my credit card for incidentals. He Ran the full amount plus $50 more than what I paid already. when I told him about it, He said oh no this is the only payment that we have so I had to show him on my banking app that I was charged twice. I called Hotels.com to get a refund for the payment that I already paid them and what happened was they sent over a prepaid payment and he was trying to run the payment plus the incidental fee at once so it kept getting denied. Anyhow, Hotels.com reimburse me for the one night. When I got in the room and turned the light on a cockroach ran across the floor! The hotel was dirty. The water barely came out of the faucet. and the shower The water did not drain. It was a horrible experience. I will never go back to that hotel again.

We tried to stay more nights and they doubled the rate from what was quoted. The spectrum cable only had a few sports channels. And they weren’t going to fix it for a few days. I also asked for a bottle of water upon check-in. Being a priority member for decades and they said no when I could clearly see a couple cases of water behind the check in desk. We found another hotel cheaper rates, better TV channels, etc..

The hotel was clean, staff were nice and getting around the hotel was easy. Breakfast was good. We were visiting family nearby so we didn’t spend that much time at the hotel besides sleeping. Only issue was when we came back to the hotel at night there was always people hanging out in the parking lot that didn’t seem like they were guests. Just made it a bit uncomfortable when arriving back to hotel. No major issue though. Overall it was a good stay.
