We booked an oversize king room. We asked for the West Tower on the sixth floor. When we checked in we did get a room on the 6th floor but in the East Tower. Now we don't like the East Tower as the views aren't as nice as the West Tower. Also, we did request a specific room in the West Tower. But the room was nice. We did enjoy it. There was a continental breakfast that was served and we went down to the restaurant for this. We got to the restaurant at about 9:00 am and the room was crowded. We did find a place to sit and I went to go and get my husband and me a glass of orange juice and there wasn't any. Most of the food was gone. There was cereal available, I don't know about milk. They only offered omelets with peppers in it and some sausage links. There wasn't much of this available. I ate a couple of sausage links. I don't do omelets or peppers. I was going to get a bagel and fruit, they were out of that also. My husband said that his omelet was cold as were my sausage links, his were too. There were still people coming in at 9:30 am for breakfast and the staff was cleaning up and putting the appliances and food away. We didn't go back for breakfast for the rest of our stay. I will say that the views at this hotel overlooking the river are amazing and that is what we were there for. This hotel is old and is in need of a lot of updating. We have been coming to this hotel for about 12 + years and nothing has changed. The rooms are looking tired, and old. They are not updated to accept a lot of the electronics that we all have today to charge. I do take a USB outlet that I plug into the wall so that we can plug our phones, hearing aids, computers, and other electronics into it to charge them. I would also suggest a new a/c system for the rooms as they weren't as cold as we would have liked.

In my lifetime, I must have stayed at. 20 some Econo lodges and this has to be the worst. If you want coffee when you wake up, you're not going to get it. There's no coffee machine in the room and for they're little continental breakfast They don't open the doors till 7. So you have to go somewhere else if you get up earlier to get coffee. It was freshly painted you can tell. But other than that, it wasn't all. That great or worth the money. Then you have the people hanging out in the parking lot wanting to come up to you for money Etc. Not a very good area. And also post said, it's in Fort Myers, but it's in North Fort Myers two blocks. From the bridge and the sign that says welcome to Fort Myers.

Front desk is very nice, love the service here! Would recommend to others

We love this location right in the middle of downtown Fort Myers, Florida. We've stayed here a few times, including before the recent renovation. There is a an interesting variety of rooms with different layouts which we enjoyed. This time we chose a King room with balcony and city view. The balcony is small but big enough for 2 people and while it does have an ok ”city view,” it also looks down upon another roof below with all the air conditioners (something we do not like when paying extra for a ”view”). However, you can also see the river along with a bit of Patio DeLeon, in the middle of downtown Fort Myers. At night, is where the view shines with all the colorful lighting and usual music can be heard from live musicians. This room is fairly large for a boutique hotel with a larger than usual TV. However, the TV and dresser on which it sits are oddly placed in a corner at an angle, and pretty far from the bed detracting from the size of the screen. Programming is not in HD and also not set to the correct proportions (everything was vertically compressed) and the remote does not allow adjustments for this. It has a nice kitchenette area with a mini fridge but no microwave which we thought it should have given the price for the room and how inexpensive small microwaves cost (It may have been an option but it should already be there). Shower is very nice but every 30 seconds the water pressure dropped, then climbed back up - no biggie, just odd. Toilet paper seemed cheap for this type of hotel but all other items seemed to match this type of hotel. You have to pay $3 per bottle for the 2 bottles that are already in the room. It's like ”nickel and diming” for something as inexpensive as bottled water - like having no microwave, it takes away from the experience given the price of the room. Some light fixtures were not fully seated into the ceiling and like most hotels, the air vent in the bathroom had visible dust (I realize most people don't even look at these things, but I tend to notice it). The bed, although newer, was very firm, and not what we typically find in an upscale hotel. The walls are ”thin” allowing sounds from outside and adjacent rooms to be heard which is just an observation, not necessarily a negative. Front desk personnel were friendly, professional and helpful. Parking options are basically valet or one of 2 nearby parking garages. One parking garage is literally across the street which worked great for us at a lot less than using valet - pros and cons to each. The ice machine on our floor was not working which requires you to acquire ice on another floor (we were on the 7th floor - the top floor). There is a nice little rooftop bar which has a similar view of the city as our room but a little higher. The bar area has decent seating with a good mix of small couches, chairs and high top tables. We did not eat or have room service during this stay but it's available. Overall, it's a very nice, small hotel in an ideal, convenient location and we will definitely go back.

This was not the nicest Holiday Inn, but our stay was fine. Our room on the 4th floor was clean and smelled fresh. The man working at the front desk was friendly and helpful in getting help right away when we had a clogged toilet in the room. The water pressure in the shower wasn't great. I with there was free breakfast but there's a Dunkin Donuts next door to the hotel which was convenient. The pool was freezing but that didn't deter my 8 year old!
