Very nice
This was an overnight stay for a doctor's follow up at Moffitt Cancer Center. The room was very spacious and clean. Breakfast in the morning was very nice as well.

6/10 Good

Overall satisfied
This is my second time staying here. Overall decent hotel. Pros: Rooms and lobby are clean Short distance to casino Continental breakfast, decent selections Friendly and accomodating staff Cons: Toilets barely flush properly (on both stays) Rooms have a stale smell to them (like air conditioners need replacing or cleaning - both stays) Walls are thin - could hear a man yelling at someone all night

Casino stay
We chose this hotel because it was more half the price of staying at the casino. We were impressed with the hotel in every aspect and will be staying there again next casino trip.

2/10 Poor

Buyer beware!!!!!!!!
Horrible experience!!!! Paid an insane amount of money for one night for a dump. Lost power in the middle of the night—-hotel does not have back up generator. This should not be ranked as excellent. Place stinks and is just disgusting. Not to mention the illegal activity taking place around the pool that the staff didn’t seem to care about.

Great breakfast and wonderful breakfast staff. Front desk would not accommodate our request for a room on a higher floor. Our room was next to the elevator and guest laundry…I think our use of Expedia pricing gave us the worst possible room location. No nearby restaurant other than 5 Guys burger shop. Would look for alternative accommodation on next trip to this area of Tampa.
