“The Good & The Bad”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 1, 2013

Drove from Miami and stayed here for two nights thanks to a cbs deal. I have only stayed at one other Crowne Plaza before, so expected this one to be similar.

GPS didn't really lead to the exact hotel spot, so we had to ask someone who was leaving the mall where it was and they kindly led the way while driving behind them. So, if you are unfamiliar with the area, then I suggest looking at a satellite map online if you are going to be driving on your own.

However, the room we stayed in 204, was showing wear and tear. Both bathroom and front door looked like from the 80s. Bathroom floor had stains (not dirt) and there were cracked tiles behind the toilet. The coffee pot didn't really heat up water very hot at all, so we had to use a microwave employees use on another floor. Bed was comfortable however.

Wasn't extremely disappointed, but wasn't excited. It served the purpose of having a place to sleep while exploring Fort Myers. The chrismas tree in the lobby area was really nice and was wonderfully decorated. And the AC was very noisy, earplugs helped me drown out the noise.

Room Tip: Room with view of pool is nice to have.

“Good hotel with friendly staff”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 1, 2013

My wife and I stayed for four nights and were upgraded to the Club Level (5th Floor) which was a nice surprise. The staff was friendly and helpful when called upon. The rooms were clean and in good shape. Our only issues were on the first day, housekeeping did not make up our room, the drapes had tiny holes in it so light came through and the under counter toilet paper dispensers were very flimsy. On the whole, it was a good stay in a good location with easy access to US41. I-75 and Sanibel/Captiva. (We would have give it 3 1/2 stars if we could)

“Great Service and Great People that work there!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 30, 2012

I want to thank the entire front desk staff for making our stay so awesome from 12/7 -12/10, and for taking care of my daughter who just arrived today 12/30/12! My daughter called and said they felt so special because they remembered my husband and I and knew that she was our daughter because I had told them she was coming down. You cannot buy that kind of hospitality anywhere! Thank you !!!!

Room Tip: Upper flooor with view of the pool is nice!

“THIS PLACE IS THE ONLY OPTION IN TOWN”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed December 12, 2012

Been there for a few nights i did not expect such a business athmpospere! there were lots of congress going atough the rooms and the lobby were more like a beach hotel.
Nice business area and very small but complete gymn area.
The pool is nice and remarkable is the fact that is very quite and clean, unfortunately the hotel is right next to the biggest shopping mall in Fort Myers and this may be very confusional for who is trying to relax in the pool area.
Service and staff fast and kind altough this is the only "business" option in town.
