Totally recommend.
Positives: AWESOME continental breakfast. Accommodating check-in. Great beds.
Negatives: Not the convenient location for downtown business, but everything positive way made up for this.
Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 05 Oct 2010 rated 6 out of 10.
Again the hotel was great, safe and comfortable. We ended up with a smoking room. They try to cover up the oder, but we cud smell it and with a child with breathing problems.
Positives: We loved Country Inns and Suites, the employees are great, the rooms are spacious and clean.
Negatives: I guess I did not know that smoking was still allowed in public facilities such as hotels!
Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 03 Oct 2010 rated 6 out of 10.
Enjoyed the stay. Only problem was I had to stay in a smoking room, and it wasn't the best to stay in since my wife and I don't smoke. They were full and it was all they had left.
Positives: Breakfast, swimming pool were great.
Negatives: Got put in a smoking room and I don't smoke!
Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 13 Sep 2010 rated 7 out of 10.
I was not impressed with housekeeping, they left hair in shower and in sink. Also, rooms around mine were smoking rooms, so even though I was non-smoking. I got to smell smoke through the doors and vents. I was surprised the rooms were in poor condition since the lobby and restaurant were so nice. The front desk girl was not very friendly, but maybe she had a bad day.
Positives: It was very close to business headquarters and had many places to eat and shop in the surrounding area.
Negatives: Housekeeping left hair on sink and in shower.

It was quiet, clean, well maintained, safe, and a good value for what I paid. Parking was a bit limited (I got the last space). I would stay there again.
Positives: Quiet, Clean, Well Maintained, safe.
Negatives: Limited parking.

The hotel is a little out of the way compared to others that are off the main roads. I agreed to take a smoking room, but that was a mistake. The room had such a strong smell that even some Lysol or Fabreeze probably could cover, but would have helped. The exercise room is pretty small, but at least had a few free weights. The free hot breakfast was great
Positives: Free hot breakfast.
Negatives: Room smelled.

This hotel has a strange musty smell throughout, the beds are not comfortable, our curtains fell down and the whole place is not very clean. On the positive we loved having a fridge/microwave, the pool is large and very nice and open till 12am - breakfast is also very good.
Positives: The pool, we liked the microwave/fridge in room very much.
Negatives: There is an overall dank, musty smell/ not very clean.
Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 30 Apr 2009 rated 9 out of 10.
Our room was nice but we had to have 2 queen beds, as it was not a suite. The beds took up all the space, so the desk/table was tiny. It would not be difficult to raise the light fixture, acquire a second night stand and replace the 2 queens with a king.
Positives: Easy to access from the freeway.
Negatives: Lack of king size bed in non-suite rooms.

This hotel is great, it has basically everything you'd find in a 3-star hotel (minus room service). Plus it's a rather big hotel overall so there are meeting rooms, lounges, laundry, and other things you might not expect in a 2.5 star facility. Clean and comfortable with the extra touches you'd expect from a hotel that's much more expensive.
Positives: Great location, close to entertainment.
Negatives: Staff was a little curt.
Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 20 Jan 2009 rated 10 out of 10.
Overall, good value with good location, clean, and friendly staff.
Positives: Good value.
Negatives: Breakfast could be improved.
Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 14 Dec 2008 rated 9 out of 10.
This hotel is very close to shopping and other things to do nearby. The staff was very friendly and was knowledgable. The complementary breakfast was very good. Overall the hotel was clean and presentable. I would definately stay here again.
Positives: The staff was friendly and the complementary breakfast was good.
Negatives: The bathroom could have been a bit cleaner, but it wasn't horrible.
Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 20 Aug 2008 rated 7 out of 10.
Continental breakfast was so packed that no one could even squeeze in there. We went at about 9am, so maybe the early bird gets the worm, not sure. Also, there was a spider in our room. Other then that, it was good. Nice pool/spa, clean bathrooms, etc.
Positives: The pool was open late.
Negatives: The continental breakfast was so crowded we couldn't even eat it, had to go somewhere else.
Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 17 Jul 2008 rated 10 out of 10.
Right off the interstate, very convenient. Great for an upscale hotel room! Nice pool, hot tub and exercise room. The breakfast was delicious and the staff was very friendly.
Positives: For a basic room, it seemed quite upscale, including a fridge and micro.
Negatives: My only dislike is that the hot tub does not have jets aimed at sore back mussels.

Negatives: Nothing.

Can't believe what a great hotel for the price. It was very quiet in a nice wooded area right off the freeway. We will definitely try to stay there next time through.
Positives: Clean, perfect location, easy to find off the freeway, comfortable beds, great pool.
Negatives: None.

This hotel is great for families. Has a wonderful pool area and great breakfast. They also have whirlpool and business suites available, so they are very accommodating to all travelers. We also appreciated the fridge and microwave that were in our room.
Positives: Loved the pool/hot tub area. Plenty of room for all people that were using it when we were there.
Negatives: No vending machines on the floor we stayed on.
