Holiday Inn Express Bartow by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and friendly staff. Nice breakfast."

Relax in Heated Saltwater Pool w/ Screened Lanai

8/10 Good

"The reason it didn’t get full five is because it’s listed as 5 bedroom sleeps 10 which is not true. It has 3 bedrooms 1 office with see through glass doors and the living room is also listed as a bedroom. We had 4 people who needed their own space so we got by but the living room is not a bedroom. Other than that the property was nice, there were tons of supplies and the attention to detail was great, lights labeled, waters in the fridge and more. If you only need 3 rooms I’d highly recommend it. The owner accommodated a change in our schedule which he didn’t have to do. He was also very easy to contact and responded quickly. It was a great place in a nice area."

Private Studio Suite

10/10 Excellent

"The studio suite was very nice, quiet, peaceful. Everything that it showed, the host was very communicative, and we kept in contact the whole time. The only thing that I would say going forward is maybe clean out the kitchen drawers. Add some silverware, maybe some paper plates and a larger variety of tea bags. Other than that, the stay was wonderful. I am also very OCD, and I appreciated when I looked under the bathroom sink and in the kitchen, there were cans of lysol, I travel with my own lysol products, so to see something like that meant a lot to me. I would definitely stay again. Thank you so much for your hospitality."

Private Pool + Fenced Yard | Family Getaway

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic week at this house! Thank you guys so much!There were a couple of things I’d want to have known going into it, but Anthony was very responsive, very quickly. - The AC did not keep up during the heat of the day. It always caught up at night to the set 70 degrees, but increased throughout each day to peak at 79 late in the afternoons. We were comfortable with the temperature since there were fans in each room. - The grill was great, but the propane was empty, so if you’re arriving at dinner time expecting to grill, be prepared to run out for that. - I was hoping to utilize some of the games that they claimed to have a variety of, but when we went to play, there was only two games and one puzzle. It’s something, but I would have brought some more if I knew that.Some nice perks:The supply of detergents was especially appreciated, dishwasher and washing machine.The neighborhood was residential and very safe to walk/run. I went out every morning from 6-7am, so it’s really nice from an activity standpoint. Blender in the kitchen was great, the coffee machine did drip and Keurig!"
