Holiday Inn Express & Suites Bradenton West by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and nice. They are renovating the halls. The exercise room was excellent! Breakfast was excellent except for the pancakes, they were a little heavy. The only thing that wasn’t so good, was the Spectrum cable tv. The first 40 stations faded in and out. Not a good time for that because the World Series was on. So I missed the game!"
