Great one night stay before cruise

We stayed here the night before a cruise and it was perfect for us. Big, clean room with balcony. Pool area was nice and we used the hot tub there at night. Friendly staff. Cruise shuttle took us right to the port the next morning free of charge! Walking distance to Taps bar and wine where we had a great dinner.

GREAT COMPANY, GREAT CUSTOMER - UNPLEASANT STAFF, UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE!

I'm a huge fan of this company and when ever possible, I do my best to stay in one of their brand of Hotels. My past experiences have been above average. The level of customer services - the best in the business - always makes me feel like I'm at home. The staff is pleasant, professional, accommodating, knowledgeable, trusting, and just good people. My accommodations have always been, elegant, high-end, comfortable, clean, and affordable. This company has the competitive advantage in it's industry. This is why my recent stay left me wondering if maybe I had accidentally booked with another company. While the accommodations where on par with past experiences, the level of customer services was less than desirable. And I hope this is a one time occurrence of poor customer service.

Great Stay

We were in Tampa for a wedding. The staff here were all extremely friendly and helpful. The shuttle will take you anywhere within 2 miles and was very convenient- although there were some small waits. We used the valet parking ($12/day), but there is a parking lot just across the street. Breakfast was a little confusing as we thought it was complimentary for guests, but were given a bill at the end. However, on checkout, we were not charged.

Try Spain and Toma. It is a Tapas place with grear fried calamari and a wonderful $20 bottle of Tempernillo. Also, go to restaurant.com and get a $25 certificate for $10 as a bonus.

nice room design, nice staff, all else in shambles

There was major construction on the main street leading to the hotel. Hotel staff did not mention this when we called ahead to ask about check-in and proximity to our event destination, which caused us a lot of trouble when we got there. I feel like a better hotel would have warned us. Furthermore, the hotel itself was undergoing construction, so there were floor fans everywhere, the main entrance had been re-routed through the dining area, and the elevators stopped running at around midnight. Bathroom fixtures had stains, although the rest of the room was nicely decorated. Comfortable bed.... I just should have paid a lot less than I did to stay there. Paid $120 including tax for a stay that was worth maybe $80.

a nice end to a bad beginning.

the staff was very helpful from the moment i was dropped off until my stay was over. i was in a wheel chair and had no trouble getting help checking in and getting set up in my room. lets not forget how great the beds were. when my stay was over, they kindly gave me a shuttle to the Amtrak Station. wish my stay had been longer!

Exactly as expected

This hotel was in a great central location - near the restaurant we were going to and near Busch Gardens. So, it was exactly what we wanted. There is ONLY valet parking, though. I felt like we were supposed to give a tip to the valet person every time we needed to get our car out of valet, which was strange, but they have a shuttle for anything within a 2 mile distance.
