  • Excellent location to Sanibel Island bridge/toll. Front desk provided maps of the area.
  • The smell outside of dead fish, smell of bedding was too flowery/scented heavily.

“Excellent location to Sanibel Island. Nice grounds. Convenient side entrance to parking lot. Nearby restaurants/stores or food delivery. Worth it to stay on Priceline.”

  • Not only the hotel room was clean, but the hotel over all was clean and decorated nicely.

“Enjoyed staying at this hotel, location was great to any section of Ft. Myers, especially Sanibel Island and Pine Island. Close to shopping, restaurants. The interior and exterior of this hotel was very clean. Complimentary breakfast was great. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful they printed out driving directions from Ft. Myers to Orlando.”

  • Great location, quick efficient check-in, and comfortable room.
  • Bathroom could use some upgrading.

“Provides what is expected for value and comfort - comfortable standard room, efficient check-in from friendly staff, convenient breakfast in a great location minutes from the bridge to Sanibel Island and Fort Myers Beach. Bathroom could use an upgrade, but was clean with plenty of towels.”

  • Location was close to shopping and the beaches. Hotel staff was very friendly. Breakfast was great.
  • The breakfast room was being renovated and no bathroom storage.

“The Country Inn & Suites Sanibel Gateway was very nice. It appeared to be rather new and in great condition. Hotel staff members were very friendly and helpful. They offered fresh baked cookies every day and the continental breakfast was better than most. We chose this hotel because it was closest to Sanibel Island and Captiva. It was perfect!”

  • The hotel was priced right & was convenient to a resort where I was attending a wedding.
  • The Target Job fair lines out the front door & in the way in the breakfast area.

“Good hotel, noisy family next to us, but that's not the hotel's fault. The Target Job Fair was a definite turn off, the lines out the front door when we arrived, the extra people in the breakfast room and the lack of parking for hotel patrons wasn't a good thing.”

  • Great location for beaches, shopping and dining. Staff was excellent!
  • You need a car because there is not much within walking distance.

“We were pleasantly surprised at this hotel. Very comfortable friendly staff, clean hotel and beautiful landscape and pool. We stayed on the 2nd floor which was nice because we didn't have to wait for the elevator each time. We love the bed and breakfast feel.”

  • The entire experience was great! I enjoyed my anniversary & that says it all!
  • The shower head was not to my liking.

“Overall, the hotel was wonderful! The staff, though not completely on cue, was very polite & helpful. The room was great, except for the showerhead. I would stay there again & recommend it to others. Thanks!”

  • Parking convenient to entrance and hotel location while near the highway, was very quiet.
  • Nothing.

“The hotel was easy to locate from the highway, near to Sanibel island while reasonable priced. The makeup of the room was attractive and the overall design and decoration was clean, neat and new.”

  • It made us feel at home, relaxed.
  • If you don't like people and want to be alone, this is not the place to go.

“We felt like we were visiting in someone's home. The lobby was so beautiful and cozy with the fireplace that people sat in there and we talked like we were old friends. There was such a welcoming atmosphere when we first entered and it was a feeling that stayed. The breakfasts were wonderful.”

  • Staff was friendly.
  • Room smelled badly---smoke and other odors.

“Country inn is really 2 stars, not 2.5. I've stayed in several. They all tend to smell bad. This one is also located far from everything. ”
