Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Tampa Wesley Chapel

This is my fourth stay at this hotel and it is excellent. Staff was friendly and helpful, the room was clean and plenty of space. The complimentary breakfast is very good and well attended, fresh dishes are replaced as needed, the female staff member working this area does an amazing job (I'm sorry I did not get her name). The only down side is the property is beginning to show some early signs of wear on the carpet, walls etc. Had an incident on my last night of a group of kids running up and down the (2nd. floor hall) yelling and screaming. I don't know where their parents were or why they'd allow it, but the night desk staffer took my call of complaint after midnight (this had gone on for several hours) and put a stop to it. I hope this is a rarity with guests and not a new normal. Exceptional stay other than that.

We were in town for the USAG Hugs meet at the Wiregrass convention center. The location is convenient and the facility seems to be very well-kept. Unfortunately, at breakfast we experienced some extremely rude breakfast attendants. There were several extremely rude comments made such as "I think you should do that at your table" when we were attempting to clean up a mess at the coffee bar. Many of the athletes at breakfast on Sunday morning were autistic and competing at the Hugs meet- I truly hope that the attendants attitude is not a reflection of their feelings toward our children and families. Regardless, it makes us question how welcome we are at the Fairfield.

We were in Tampa to watch a family friend play in a hockey tournament. Overall, the hotel was clean, our room was spacious enough, and the staff was friendly. It seemed as if the hotel was a bit understaffed and underprepared in some ways. The hallway was freezing cold for some reason. I asked for a blanket and the woman at the front desk gave me what appeared to be an empty duvet cover. We couldn't keep the heater on at night because it was extremely loud. The hotel should have some blankets, even in Florida. The fitness room had such a strong plastic/rubber smell that we decided not to use it. (We usually work out daily.) At breakfast, the coffee and creamer kept running out. The poor single woman who was refilling things seemed like she needed another co-worker to help her. Overall, good stay, but these are little improvements that can easily be made.
