Advice on driving from Tampa to Bradenton
I am a CA resident. I have a school (LECOM-Bradenton) interview in September. My interview is on a Monday Morning. I arrive in Tampa International Airport by Sunday. I am staying at Holiday Inn, which is about 3 miles from the airport. . I would probably freshen up at the hotel after arriving on Sunday and then drive to the school to figure out how to get there. This is so I don't end up being late for my 8 am interview the next day. I will be renting a car during my stay.
Can someone please help me with the best driving directions to go from the hotel address of 4750 North Dale Mabry Highway Tampa, FL 33614 to the school's address: 5000 Lakewood Ranch Boulevard, Bradenton, FL. I am VERY bad with directions so will definitely need some much needed help.

This is what Google Maps does. Go to the directions in the upper left hand corner, enter the two addresses, and it will plot the best and fastest route.
But. That's BUT, Bradenton is not a hop skip and jump from Tampa. You should cancel your Tampa hotel and find yourself a hotel in/near Bradenton and NOT rely on driving a long distance over the Sunshine Skyway in order to be there at 8 AM, It is about an hour at the best of times, and you don't need the stress on an interview day, believe me.

Agree with Ackislander, you should find a hotel in Bradenton and drive straight there from the airport. Morning rush hour will make the drive from Tampa to Bradenton unpredictable, but Sunday night will be a piece of cake. Use Google for directions. Good luck!
