I highly recommend this hotel. Stayed here one night with my husband and 3 teenagers children while visiting relatives in Bradenton. The rate was very reasonable, the hotel was very clean, and the staff was very pleasant and accomodating (I asked for a rollaway bed and they brought it up within minutes). If you like to shop this hotel is great because it is located in front of The Prime Outlets. The hotel's rates include breakfast which had a good selection of muffins, biscuits, sausage, doughnuts, cereal, etc.. The hotel parking lot is adjacent to a Wendy's and Ruby Tuesdays. The pool was very clean and the beds were comfortable. The hotel is nicely decorated and landscaped. The hotel is only about 10 minutes from the beach. I will definately make reservations here again.

On March 21, 2004 we stayed at the Hampton Inn in Ellenton. The hotel had a great location and was easy to find. An Outlet Mall was located directly across the parking lot and the Pittsburgh Pirates Spring Training facility is about a 15 minute drive away. There were good restaurants within walking distance and others a short drive away. This Hampton location met the usual Hampton standard (we travel a lot and often stay at Hampton hotels). It was very clean, room was sufficient in size, interior entrances to all rooms, great breakfast buffet, friendly staff, and good room prices. I would stay at this location again.
