The location was perfect for my trip purpose. The price of the room was reasonable. The restaurant is a great amenity and the food was wonderful . All the staff is very friendly and professional. It was a little confusing to be placed in the very back on the very end where there were no other people as a single woman traveling alone. In the end I appreciate it because last night there were obviously people above me and I could hear every step and movement they made. The room was very clean. I had to get an extra roll of toilet paper and a box of tissues as both roles and the box were very low. The heater went out and they were very quick to send maintenance with a replacement unit. Replacement unit had great Heat but unfortunately was so noisy I had to sleep with earbuds playing music and pillows jammed up against my head. Sounded like a plane taking off and Landing. I will probably stay here again because of his location and price. I might be more of a cast and picky about my room and maybe having to stay longer for medical reasons. The shower water pressure was surprisingly strong. Usually they're all low flowing you can't get the soap out of your hair. This one was too much and was sandblasting the skin off my back. I don't understand why hotel rooms are so difficult to get right. If you are looking for a consultant who would have really good advice regarding designing rooms for women please reach out to me! I am looking for work. My apologies for the st very low.

The room was good for the price and is only about a 10 minute drive to Clearwater beach. Free parking and free breakfast are the main benefits, and resort fees were only $13 dollars for 5 days. I’ve stayed several places on the beach, but if you’re looking for a budget friendly hotel close to everything, this is a good choice, just get a rental car.

Parking was free and plentiful. Renovations are taking place and we received email notifying us. No reception as such, temporary desk. Cold coffee at 4.00 when we checked in. We collected one in the evening. We were flying home today so chose this as close to Tampa Airport. Unfortunately we had noise through the evening and it went on until after 2.00 a.m. we had very little, and intermittent sleep and woke up by boys chasing each other around outside our room...we were fed up and tired. When we asked for pool towels we were given 2 very small towels so i asked for another, i was told she could only offer me flannels???

I was not informed about the ongoing renovations prior to my arrival. I was offered an upgrade to a suite for $30/night, which I paid because the clerk explained that there was a private bedroom with a door as part of the suite. When I got to my room, it was simply a larger room, no private bedroom. Due to the room recently being renovated, there was a strong paint smell in the room. They didn't change the front door to the room and there was a large gap at the bottom allowing light and hallway noise to come through. There was no place in the bathroom for me to place my towel while I showered. I felt like complaining to the front desk, but was simply too tired to try to do anything about it. I was there for two nights and just needed a place to shower and sleep. I got just that.
