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.
