"Im glad I decided on this hotel. The rooms were clean as well as the facility. Everyone was friendly and helpful. I noticed that they have soft water. Maybe its a thing being close to the ocean. This is a great hotel. Give it a try. Thanks!"

10/10 Excellent
"It was so much better than I had expected,it was clean and very comfortable. I made a mistake when I originally booked my room and the staff was understanding and helped correct the problem for me immediately. The day that I was supposed to leave, my vehicle wouldn't start and since it was a holiday weekend, I had difficulty getting it towed to a localbody shop to get it fixed. The manager was more than accommodating and thankfully gave me more than enough time to get my vehicle towed to the repair shop without having to worry about him having it towed or getting a ticket. I enjoyed my time at the country inn and suites and i would recommend it to anyone who wanted to enjoy great accommodations, a great atmosphere and a very kind and understanding hotel staff."
