I usually travel alone and look for safety and a good location; this hotel has both. It is very convenient off of 1-75 and situated on the lovely Manatee River. The hotel is older but well maintained and clean; I have stayed several times. The employees provide superior service, Cathy the assistant manager is extremely attentive and helpful; she can't...

My family member had accidentally booked an awful Days Inn by Busch Gardens that was so bad we left, even though it was 8:00pm and we were exhausted from a day at the park. Since it's March and "spring break" every hotel within 3 exits of Tampa we went to was booked. Tired and hungry we finally exited for Palmetto,... More

There is a lot going for this hotel. The room was bright, spacious, and inviting. Though situated almost below the I-75 bridge, the sound did not penetrate the hotel. The hotel backs up to the Manatee River, so ask for a river view. Though the furnishings were worn, the room was very clean. Some creative soul even arranged the wash... More

Really wanted this hotel to be good, but I was disappointed. Hotel is in a dark scary area. Property is in bad need of upgrades and maintenance. Carpet thoughout is stained and nasty. Rooms smell bad. Afraid to sit on the furniture in room because of all the stains and crud. (On the positive side: Hotel Personel were very very... More

We live in this area and had to stay here for 7 nights when the A/C went out in our rental house. You would think that staying there so long, if there was a problem, we would have encountered it, but we did not. I called around for price- and it was the lowest- with the best potential for a...

Stayed at this Sleep Inn what was supposed to be only 1 night, but turned out to be 2 nights instead because of a rain delay in the golf tournament i was participating. I called about 3 weeks ahead and booked my room for $62 a night which i think was a 20% discount. I think this might have been... More

We stayed just one night while visiting family. It is an older property - rooms are a little below average on size, but was clean. The breakfast area is very small with too many tables shoved in to accomodate everyone. The location is good and our room had a nice view of the Manatee River which was nice. More

Stayed 11/22 for one night. It was one night too long! I think the pictures tell the tale. If you're looking for a clean, and I emphasize clean, place to stay this is not it. Urine and blood stains on inspection of the bedding was all it took. Only positive is that the gentleman at the front desk was apologetic... More

Went with my daughter on a business trip for 2 days and her company booked us here. I was very please with the rooms the view and the staff. The pool is nice and clean but as others have stated it is noisy from the highway that is near. It did not bother me though as I was using it... More
