Enjoyable stay. The staff was excellent and very helpful, the room was nice and tidy. With the recent cold weather in Tampa the room was temperature remained at a comfortable level. The amenities were also nice, and bonus for having a Wawa within walking distance. The only thing that I wish I'd taken advantage of was the shuttle to the cruise port, but overall it was an excellent stay.
