Pool is suitable for kids and adults . Clean. Close restaurants and also shopping area not too far away. I came to do visits to Bayfront hospital and this location was just 20 mins away straight drive. Very convenient to everything

This was a stay with myself, partner and child for 1 night . David was great at check in and also at check out the next day. My first set of keys didn’t work and he immediately gave me a new set. He let me know about breakfast times and where it would be located. We did not utilize it, but the pool looked really nice. The breakfast available was a lot more than I was expecting. They had so many options for everyone and it was all fresh and delicious. The room was very clean and we had no issues. The bathroom itself is a tad small (the shower however is huge), but that’s not enough for me to dock any rating on. We absolutely enjoyed our stay and due to it being more than expected, we decided to extend our trip this week and go back for another night at the end of our trip.

I booked this hotel for my son when his other hotel would not allow him check in late. After a full day flight delays and cancellations he and his family were at end of rope. Before booking I called the hotel and asked if for a very late check in. The employee assured me they could check in late. My son stayed in touch with hotel and ended up checking close to 430am! No problem. My son said the hotel was not only very accommodating, but very well maintained as well. Breakfast was very good too. He highly recommended this hotel. I think it will be my wife and I book a weekend there too.

We stayed for the Tampa airshow. The location was great. The hotel was as clean as can be and there was alot of kids staying there but they were all quite by 9. The shower was good, and the beds comfortable.

Very much a budget stay. Not filthy but the AC had a moldy smell which made me nervous for my kids. They don’t have pack n plays available for kiddos either.

This facility was our refuge from the hurricane. We had a mandatory evacuation from the beach area. We understood there would be limited services because of this. The breakfast was decent. There appears that there were many families living here, but that didn't take away from the reason we were here. The recommendation for restaurants were good. The only downside was that the bathroom door, it was a barn door style, did not close completely . I think they may have put new carpet in and it was too high? The door did not slide close and actually came off the track a few times. Someone needs to take the door off and plane or cut 1/2 inch off the bottom of the door so it will close better.
