Great place! We needed to be close to the base and have relatively easy access to the beach, and this hotel was perfect. Only about 10 minutes to the base and 25 minutes to the beach. Clean, comfortable, and conveniently located. Would definitely stay here again!

A wonderful local hotel in a good location if you need to be in Tampa. I was able to get to Busch Gardens and Ybor City with a short drive. Easy access to south Tampa and St. Pete. The local cuisine was great and plentiful. The staff was great. The grounds and room were well maintained and clean. I would stay there again.
