Love the location

We went for a concert at yuengling which was about a mile away. Many other guests walked to the concert. We were offered a complimentary shuttle but since it stopped running at 9:45, we declined. That was a bonus to know of this though. The bed was unfortunately the worst. The following morning, i had neck issues. Breakfast was amazing as always. The evening reception consisted of potato chips, pretzels, cheez its and m&m's. I was mainly there for the 2 free alcoholic drinks. Overall, I'd return

Before I booked I called the hotel to make sure the pool would be open for my granddaughter. The staff assured me it was and the hours of operation. I booked my room and upon arrival, the pool was closed down for repairs. The front desk said it has been closed for a week already and did not know why someone would tell me otherwise. They offered an apology for my Expensive room-plus parking fees. Never again!!!
Closed with men working and caution tale around.
Closed and not for 1day.

Convenient location. Good breakfast and nice happy hour reception. Only one of three elevators worked, so accessing our room was slow. Also, we were surprised by a parking fee, even though the hotel advertised free parking.

Staff was fantastic and accommodating from the moment we arrived (very early) and requested an early check-in ,to the end of our stay. The rooms need updating and definitely some air freshening and window cleaning. And while it rained for two of the three days we were there, we were not informed prior to making reservations that the pool is closed for maintenance. But the place is in a super convenient location and the staff is amazing and it is what it is. It certainly was not dirty. Just needs sprucing and freshening up. Parking was always available.

Not the best option to stay in Tampa. Bad cost-benefit ratio. Very expensive rate for an old and bad maintained hotel, the AC makes a terrible noise even with the door closed. Breakfast only serves until 9am. The parking fee is expensive ($12 per night) considering other similar hotels do not charge for it. 5 minute driving to Busch Gardens but definitely there are other much better and reasonable priced options nearby.
