This is the only hotel I will stay at in Tampa. Why? Because it is clean, comfortable, quiet, and the staff goes out of their way to accommodate you. Plus it has small hotel pricing but big hotel quality. The free breakfast has just about anything you could want hot or cold and they make great coffee. I can't think of anything I would change.

The thing that makes this hotel stand out from most other hotels is the staff. Not only are they friendly and attentive but they also make you feel like you're home not at a hotel. The free breakfast every morning is excellent with a large choice of hot and cold items. The property is clean and well maintained. Dollar for dollar this is by far the best value in a hotel stay in Tampa.

Room was clean and the bed was comfy. Breakfast was a nightmare! Everything was empty at 8:00am. No eggs, no sausage, no bagels, no juice.

We were very glad to find this hotel while through Tampa. The front desk was very friendly. The grounds were clean. Breakfast was good in the morning with more choices than I expected. Would definitely stay here again.

We went to Tampa to attend a football game. I had never been to the city and picked the property based on the price and location.This property was inexpensive and down the street from the Raymond James Stadium so the location was convenient. There were lots of restaurant on the same street, this was very convenient too. The property offered a free breakfast, but I was not a fan of the options. Dining room was small, so we had to actually wait for people to finish eating in order to get a table and seats. The pool was in the center of the parking lot, which made its use unappealing. The room was clean and quiet even with most of the rooms being booked. It was adequate if you just need a bed and plan to be out all day, but not the type of property that you would want to relax in for the amenities.
