This was a great hotel to stay in. The staff was friendly, the rooms were clean and updated, the breakfast area was comfortable and the area was nice looking with their chimney!!! Closed to highway 75 and stores!!

Booked with Hotel.com...did not receive the room offered and paid for just 30 minutes before checkin...booked via mobile phone...service at front desk was less than friendly. Room and hotel was very clean and up to par...which while traveling is more more important to me than front desk attendant.... even though we did not get the King Non Smoking room which was reauested and paid for through Hotel.com..I found this to be a very clean and respectable hotel. We did not visit pool...so I can not review that. We were just looking for a place to sleep after a long drive from Northern Indiana to Siesta Keys Fl.

My wife my 2 kids and I were going to be in Atlanta for a week so we decided to stay at the country inn and suites again. Big mistake. This place was not as good as it used to be, not even close. The night we checked in to our suite we got unpacked and settled in and turned on the A/C, the bedroom smelled like cigarette smoke (which my wife is allergic to,) someone had smoked in a nonsmoking room. I called the front desk, they gave us another room so I went to check it out and the A/C didn't work, So I went back down to the front desk, they didn't have another suite available. The front desk attendant was completely and totally lost and didn't know what to do so I had to tell her how to do her job (send housekeeping with some lysol and a new air filter, which should have been done before we checked in anyways.)

Then when we were going to get dinner, someone (probably drunk) parked beside us way over the line into our parking place, about 6 inches from my car so my wife could not get in, and we could not get my daughter's carseat into the car. I informed the desk attendant about the person blocking my car. My wife decided after a few hours she just wanted McDonalds so I walked up there (about 100 yards) got food and walked back. I informed the desk attendant again about the person blocking my car. The next morning my wife left on the shuttle to go to her training, I was going to go take the kids to visit some sites. The desk attendant had completely gaffed me off and did absolutely nothing to correct the situation and the car was still there. I informed the new front desk attendant of the problem and she told me there was nothing she could do. It took me calling Atlanta PD to come ticket and tow the double parked vehicle for them to finally do their job.

After my wife come back to the hotel we discussed moving to the Hyatt but she didn't want to deal with packing back up and moving to another hotel and unpacking again when she had to study. So we decided to stay, but never return.

As far as the other ammenities at the hotel they have either stayed bad or gotten worse. Their gym is still pitifully small and it and the pool are still down the hall through the smoking section. However the pull and hot tub are now saltwater which makes the hot tub bubble like a bubble bath and the pool was frigidly cold about 50 degrees. My wife and kids wouldn't get in the pool it was way too cold, I didn't care we don't have a pool and I love the water I wasn't wasting the opportunity, so I swam in it for probably about an hour when I was starting to get tired, I felt like I had gotten used to the temperature and had actually quit shivering but I was uncoordinated, and couldn't speak clearly. My wife told me my lips were turning blue, those are the classic symptoms of the onset of hypothermia, I realized what was going on and got into the hot tub to warm up. It would be very easy for someone who has never been in cold water before and not familiar with hypothermia to "get used to the temperature" and either go to sleep and drown or die of hypothermia, that's a major lawsuit waiting to happen.

We will not be back to the country inn and suites, we will stay at the hyatt from now on when we go to Atlanta.

We stopped here for the night on our drive back from Orlando after reading the reviews. It lived up to the reviews. It was very clean and the free breakfast was very good. There weren't any two queen bed rooms left when we made our reservation, so we ended up with a suite. As we had a little one with us, it was great to be able to let her roam around in so much space. The only negative is that for a night's sleep, it was a little expensive. My husband and I are old enough to remember when there were motels you could get for one night on a road trip that were inexpensive and were basically just a place to sleep. It's hard to justify spending alot of money on a sleep stop when you aren't using the pool or other facilities. They all looked really nice, but we didn't use them.
