The pictures online do not do this property justice. The rooms are really dirty , the linens and towels are all dingy and look dirty all the time. The two pools are both very gross. Looks like snot and dirt floating in them and we’re not cleaned at all. This property is way over priced & I would not recommend a visit here.

The rooms were nice but they put me in a room right by the pool it was noisy and wet and slippery and unsafe and people were partying right outside my door. So they did move us and that room was better. The parking was terrible as well i will not gi back cause they cant garuntee that they would have a room away from this.

Really liked the location, cleaness of the room, loved the live music, activities to do, bar area and the promptness of the staff responding and addressing my questions and issues. I did not like the size of the bathroom and that there is no ac/ventilation in the bathroom (unless you open the window but not ideally in the hot summer) Also, we were able to hear everything from the room next door, and when I say everything, I really mean everything. Pretty, rough at night and in the morning if you want sleep.

No Frills or toilet paper.
If you're good with a no frills stay this is the place. We have been here twice, first visit we had a room on the 3rd floor. The elevator only goes to the 2nd floor so we had to carry our luggage to the 3rd floor. Second trip we had a suite on the 2nd floor, again no elevator because it was in the older building. On our first visit the service was better. The second visit we had to call several times before we got help. We didn't have maid service 3 out of 7 days and had to call multiple times before they had someone clean the room When we came back to our room there was no toilet paper and again it took 3 calls to get some. The pool area is great and the beach was wonderful.

I was shocked that we did not have our room cleaned at all. Also, when we were in the pool, it was clear that someone threw up in it and nothing was being done about it. I was under the assumption that pools have to shut down if that occurs until they can get it cleaned.

Very retro on the outside, but the room was up to date and beautiful. Pool was salt water and clean. Room was clean, except the floors. Lots of sand on the floor at check in and they obviously had not been mopped. Front desk staff attentive and friendly. Very frustrating that the ice machines were for the bar only and the guest ice machine was in another part. It was ungodly hot and had no idea where the ice machine was. Water would not get cold in the room. Other than small things, it was worth the money and I would stay here again.

Stay was great, although parking was a chore if you came back later in the evening. There didn’t seem to be enough spaces to accommodate all of the guest rooms. Other than that it was a great stay and the hotel is an excellent location to get out and see the Tampa-St. Pete area.
