To be fair, it is onvient to fast food and Trader Joes. However, the place looks nothing like the pictures. Half the rooms are blocked off with chain link fence for what looks like construction but there were no workers or equipment present. The pool was half way thru what appears the be a relining but no workers or equipment anywhere to be seen here either. The room we received was straight out of the 70's complete with all the wear and tear on every piece of furniture to prove it. Leaking shower with chipped/cracked tiles and he toilet seat had most of the finish sanded off on all edges to confirm the advanced age of this facility. If you're a horror movie fan, this hotel is straight out of central casting .

I was disappointed in the room. I booked and paid extra for the Superior suite, which shows a balcony and walk-in shower in the room details, but i believe we got (what they call) a Deluxe suite, with no balcony and a bathtub. The front desk explained there were no more balcony rooms available, so i feel i was bumped because i didn't book the room through their website. There's also nearly a $30 premium I paid for a room i didn't get.

This is a hidden gem with wonderful rooms, fantastic cafe off the lobby frequented by locals who know a great thing, and an accommodating staff. Our only choice while in Tampa just minutes from the airport and at surprisingly affordable prices.

Horrible place. Half of it was blocked off! The elevators didn't work. The room stuck so bad we left immediately. And the pool was not like the pictures showed it was empty and disgusting. I'm trying to get a refund and hotels.com is making me wait until the hotel refunds me! I can send photos. I've never been more disgusted. Please make this right and do not rent a room here
