Countryside Hotels, Port Orange

"The place was clean and the staff was very friendly. The staff were from the area. ( If you know, you know) Great location with 2 pools and on the beach. Not walking distance to restuarants, 2-3 minutes down the road by car. Would stay here again."

"Clean room, nice outdoor seating area around pool"

"The hotel was great and nice amenities, valet staff were very responsive and professional. Check in process was fast and smooth. Staff were very nice. The hotel overall was clean and smelled good. Our room could have been more clean. We wrote our name in the dust on the glass shelves in the bathroom when we checked in. After 4 nights it was still there. "

"Older hotel but was it was well maintained. Clean"

"Valet and self parking prices suck"

"Location"

"The rooms were recently renovated and remodeled. Nice kitchen full size refrigerator. Bathroom was dated a little. Be sure and bring your own soap and shampoo because they don’t provide much for you. The bed is small and not very comfortable. The views are fantastic from the room. Every room has a balcony that looks out onto the ocean. The pool and hot tub were great. There is 6 nice bbq grills by the pool. There is an outdoor fire pit, runs on gas, that is pretty cool. The beach is very close and has an easy access and is private for hotel guests only. Have to have your room key to access the beach. Gets really hot. We rented 2 chairs and an umbrella. They came and set it up for us right there on the beach. all in all very nice place to experience the beach and the ocean."

"The bathroom was very small and outdated"

"I booked 2 rooms. One for my wife and I, and another for our adult daughter who was traveling with us. We had a late check-in after attending an outdoor music festival. We couldn’t wait to get checked in and shower. When we arrived at our room, a shower wasn’t possible because there was no shower curtain on the rod. We called the front desk and were relocated to a new room at the other end of the hotel. How does a well managed hotel overlook something as basic as a missing shower curtain? Also, the in-room coffee maker in our new room did not work. Our daughter’s room was even worse. She had no hot water in the shower. They had no rooms left to move her to, so she had to take a cold shower. Then, she discovered the hairdryer didn’t work, so she had to go to bed with wet hair. Also, several lights in her room did not work. While it wasn’t the desk clerk’s fault, she still could’ve been more helpful. She offered a less than full throated apology and had no solution for any of the problems we encountered. The property manager was not on duty when we checked out this morning when I asked to speak with them, and I had to pry the contact information from her so I could call to discuss our situation on Monday. This hotel appears relatively clean, but it is very poorly maintained and the staff seems to have very little supervision. We paid a LOT of money for these rooms due to the high demand during a peak time. Given the serious deficiencies, we should be refunded our money."
