Find the Cheap Bee Ridge Hotels

With everyone coming out of the pandemic and beginning to travel again this hotel is above and beyond expectations, speaking as a previous Courtyard by Marriott in Glenwood Springs, CO. They have a full breakfast, with eggs, a protein, as well as a stir-fry starch - with all the regular offerings such as yogurt, pastries, an assortment of juices, and fresh coffee at the touch of a button. Their front desk staff if wonderful - Pedro makes you feel welcome and at home, no matter your background or how long your stay is. This place is truly a home away from home. If your room is not ready yet, you are welcome to sit in their lounge, connect to WiFi, or even enjoy yourself by the pool (towels provided) - they even have a hot tub, and the ability to help disabled individuals into the pool. Housekeeping is wonderful and full of life and a passion for their job. I am on an extended stay, as I apply and interview for jobs back in Colorado, and my car is even being transported out to here. I have felt very welcome, as has my dog Bruce Wayne. I am a licensed clinician and have traveled a lot around the country and this is one of my favorite Choice properties. They sell out on the weekends, so be sure to make your booking early. They even have a few rooms with whirlpools if you really want to treat yourself. It has been a blessing to come across this place, that is pet-friendly, and the staff all make you feel welcome. I can't say enough positives about this property - and there's been no problems with water pressure or the WiFi connectivity. The BBQ grill out back is a wonderful touch, and allows you to save some money by cooking dinner right at your accommodation. Bravo! Encore! Thank you for all you do.

I booked a room before hurricane Ian because hotel is away from storm surge area and my condo is in zone b. Unfortunately, I only got to use your amenities briefly before a power outage took away electricity for most room lights and hall lights, tv, a/c, elevator, coffee maker, refrigerator, microwave, internet, etc. Not a single outlet to charge phones. The staff managed breakfast since they had power in one room and one tv was on in the lobby. Your manager said it was FPL fault. Before that, only one elevator was working. A staff person said one had been out at least 4 months. This seems like neglect. When Ian was nearing, the wind popped a window and the latch would not hold. Maintenance problem? At least there was quick response and a staff person drilled hole to put in hardware to fasten it closed. All power went out on Wednesday ~ 2, due to the storm for sure this time. Thursday am the staff put together a reasonable cold breakfast in mostly darkness. I was surprised that the hotel did not have more than a few battery lights for lobby and breakfast area. This is Florida, even smaller storms often cause outages and the need for lightning is something that should be anticipated. About $50 to $100 worth of little led battery lanterns would have helped a lot. The stairwells were so dark and unsafe also. I think this is also neglect.

Our stay at this hotel in sarasota was excellent. the room was clean and comfortable with all essential well taken care of. the location was convenient, close to siesta key beach & interstate I-75. the staff was friendly and helpful through out our stay. overall it was great value for the price. check inn kiosk was very great and new experience, and i would definitely stay here again.

We stayed here for Orioles/Pirates spring training games – March 6 -14, 2023 Here is what we encountered: Running toilet. Broken window curtain pull. Drains in bathroom & sink ran slow. Toilet paper dispenser loose and almost falling off the wall. Towels and washcloths were super thin. Same breakfast every day – Egg cheese omelet (small) & sausage, mini-muffins, two kinds of cereal, but skim milk only – no whole milk. One kind of yogurt and waffles. No toast or bagels. There for 8 days – no change. Ended up eating at Dunkin Donuts or The Waffle House across the street. Broken umbrella (the only one) and broken lounge chair at the pool. Lack of drawer space. Poor lighting and no HD TV. Carpets left your feet dirty. In need of a deep cleaning. Your feet were black after walking on the carpet. Beds & pillows were comfortable. Hallway smelled like curry. Appeared that people were living at the hotel and there were always people loitering around the front entrance to the hotel. I do not recommend this hotel AT ALL. Friendly and accommodating housekeeping staff, but they had a tough job keeping up and truly need to find a better place to work.

It appears that most of the renovation work on this hotel has been completed. We saw no signs of on going work and our 4th floor bedroom/bathroom were very comfortable, clean and well supplied. The breakfast area --- though rather devoid of travelers--- also looked untouched by construction noise and disarray. And there was a nice selection of breakfast foods to choose from. Quite honestly, we were pleasantly surprised as the cost was considerably less than we are accustomed to paying in Sarasota. We chose this hotel for its location, a quick and easy drive to Celery Fields where we walk and look for birds. Upon arriving, we were happy to find that it is off the road and on a pond. The pond was full of birds, so in 5 minutes after parking; we got some fun photos. We will definitely return to this hotel. They gave us no reason not to and several good reasons to repeat the experience.

Good Hotel

The hotel has ample parking, friendly staff, clean and hygienic facilities, and simple breakfast. It is less than a 20-minute drive from the beach. I will stay in the next opportunity and I highly recommend it.

Nice hotel, restaurants around available and Publix. The beach is about 10 min drive and they have a shuttle!

The breakfast was pretty good with some fruits , bagels , waffles , pancakes , omelet, yogurt , some pastries , juice and coffee . I would definitely stay again!
