Wingate by Wyndham

I stayed at the Wingate Inn in St. Petersburg, Florida about three years ago. I was impressed then which is why I booked there this time. I was not disappointed. The room was nothing special but was clean and comfortable with free high-speed internet in the room, both wired and wireless, and a quite air conditioning unit. The business center was well equipped and maintained. The breakfast was excellent, with a great assortment of items. I love waffles so the fact that I can make myself fresh waffles to order is a big plus in my book. Having stayed at the Wingate in St. Pete I had certain expectations and was not disappointed. I would recommend Wingate Inns to anyone that does not mind paying a few dollars more for business center access, free in room high-speed internet, and a great breakfast.

Although the location was near the airport, I hardly heard the planes taking off or landing. The bed was much more comfortable than expected and the room was very neat and clean. I called the front desk and requested extra towels and pillow and they were delivered to my room within five minutes. I was in the area to attend a funeral, so I can't really offer any tourist advice.

It was a very pleasant experience, after we were so disappointed with our first choice of a hotel.

This hotel made me feel respected: They gave us personal attention as though we really mattered and they were glad to have us.
