canuckprof Posted January 30, 2007 Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 Hi Mommc07,What was your opinion on the hotel? I stayed in Country Inn and Suites a couple of times and enjoyed them. What was your take?Canuckprof Link to comment
mommc07 Posted January 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 Thanks for asking! I was about to post my 2 cents worth. I actually had a great time. We didn't have to check in until later in the evening, so it was quiet and not so busy. I requested a King size bed a few days before check in and it was given to me. I was even asked what floor I wanted to stay at! I was given room 241 and then my family and I decided to dip in the spa/hottub they had outdoors. It was surprisingly nice except for the 100 steps it took to get indoors again into the hotel. Yeah I know, it was freezing 35-38 degrees outside but when you have kids you gotta keep them busy. Later we went to the lobby and got cookies and cocoa and coffee. The breakfast was great! Scrambled eggs with cheese, sausage, bacon, fresh fruits, yogart, waffles, hot oatmeal with all the fixins, etc. a very good selection for a continental breakfast. It was definitely worth it and I would return again for the breakfast alone. For $40 plus tax I would say it was a bargain! Oh, we needed an extra blanket at night and had no problem getting it within 5 mins! So hats off to the great service. The only thing I have to say that was negative was when I checked out, she did mention that I was priceline, which was totally unnecessary. Not that this is a negative thing really but it would be nice if nothing had been mentioned at all about priceline. We were also never told about free cookies in the lobby at night or the free continental breakfast. I only knew about it from reading hotel reviews so I guess that's okay. I heard that this hotel used to be Wyndham Gardens. I hope this helps. :) Link to comment
