Not impressed

The room was not well maintained and had a strange odor upon entering. The safety instructions were listed in several places, yet the bolt on the door was practically falling off.

Just what we needed

Our hotel was one exit from the event we were attending. So it only took 5 mins to get back and forth. the event took alot of our time. We really just needed the room to sleep and shower. It had little refrigerator which was convient. It was clean and the water was hot. It was cold weather that weekend and the heater worked great. What more could we want.

Not impressed would be an understatement

Check in was slow. Noise level in hotel was bad all night. The kicker was the cockroach in the bathroom. Would never stay again.

Will be back

For a short trip this is a cheaper way to spend your time. The room was clean, the front desk was very helpful and friendly. They do a nice job.

Disgusting Place

This is the most NASTY, DISGUSTING, WORST hotel I’ve ever stayed in my life. The Bathroom I haven’t found a word to describe how dirty it was and the room is from there to worst. My friends, move on and find another hotel, don’t spend your money in this one.

Cheap but Efficient

Hotel was quite; a rarity in Tampa, FL but needs renovating. For the overall price though was what you would expect as far as clean, cheap, and if you need anything it will cost extra (like making a local telephone call). Would recommend this hotel to anyone on a tight buget since the hotels in Tampa can become costly.

Traveler's tip on saving a few bucks

Hotel will save you money but remember with that comes the pitfalls of cheap hotels. No internet access or local telephone calls (unless you pay for them).

We will not go Back!!!!!!!

Stay away from this place

good for the money

Yes, it is a cheap hotel, but very clean. Obviously no extras (except a fridge which was nice to store drinks in!) Front window staff very knowledgable about local activities and giving perfect directions-a huge bonus.

We needed something less expensive than the gas to get there.

We had family business that we needed to attend to, but we also wanted to stop by the casino if we had extra time.We were happy with all of the hotel employes we had contact with. The room was clean, quiet, and had a fridge and microwave. we also had quick access to food and entertainment. No problems at all.

Would not recommend

There were no extra pillows available. The pillow provided was extremely small/flat. The toilet was clogged - we were there for 3 nights and it stayed that way the whole time.

?????

Worth it if you’re cheap. Should just spend the extra money on someplace else. Very dirty place. I walked around my room in brand new socks for 5 minutes and they were black as hell.

great place to stay...

It was quiet and comfortable.

Traveler's tip on saving a few bucks

If you are leaving to the airport the next day, call the shuttle service the day before (front desk has #’s) due to half price of what a taxi will cost, you should do this way before 2pm thought the day before.

Learned my lesson on being cheap!

I guess it’s true, you get what you pay for next time I won’t try to go so cheap. The motel did have security and was quiet in the evenings.
