ROCKVILLE, Md., Sept. 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Choice Hotels International, Inc. (NYSE: CHH) has opened its newest dual-branded Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites location in Sarasota, Fla. The dual-brand concept offers a range of accommodations, which appeals to business, leisure, and extended-stay guests, while giving owners and developers the benefits of lower costs to build and operate.

The location is also close to Ed Smith Stadium, the spring training home of Major League Baseball's Baltimore Orioles, and Nathan Benderson Park, a 600-acre community park, featuring a rowing course and Regatta Center. There are also several universities, medical centers and technology companies nearby.
