We have stayed at this Red Roof Inn many times. Although a low nightly rate, you get more for your money. No breakfast, free coffee 24/7. We enjoy visiting with Olga, who is the best employee ever! You are always greeted with a big smile! This location is very close to the casino; restaurant next door; safe location.

I'll give 4 stars...it was basically pretty clean and front desk staff were very friendly. I think it was the thing I had to kill that was crawling up the wall that turned me off a bit. But I know that can happen anywhere. Did not see anything else.

Lobby smells like cigarettes although it's non smoking. We walked into our room and the smell about knocked us over! I actually gagged. Smelled old and nasty! We had to go to the convenience store to buy air freshener. Thick dust on top of a light fixture. Stained comforter, blanket looked dirty. l should have spent the extra $ and... More

We stayed at the Red Roof Inn over Spring break. I was looking for a comfortable and inexpensive stay in the Tampa area. Well, I got what I paid for. For about $80 a night (which it is not that cheap) we got two beds, a TV, and a bathroom. I guess this will be ok for a one night... More

I continue to stay every week here going on about 5 years because of the people. Vanessa has been there for a while and has always been very pleasant and great hospitality. I would recommend this hotel to anyone for the location, value, and especially the service.

Our stay here was for a couple of days, the room was very nice and clean. Loved the hardwood floors, with a little carpet around the bed. The people at the front desk were very friendly and willing to go the extra mile to help us locate a tourist place, they even printing the directions to our destination. Our pets... More

Right off I4, yet it was quiet. Room was very nice and clean. Although jumping on and off I4 might seem to make it far, it really is just "down the road" from the Hard Rock Casino. All the staff I met was super friendly. I did have to request more towels than they gave us and the TV seemed... More

Off the highway ( i4) and nice and quiet. Rooms are modern. Clean. And spacious. TV is modern flat screen design and a pleasure to watch. Ribs restaurant next door is very handy. Approx 14 miles from downtown Tampa. A great place for a stop over and nice and clean and modern. It's walking distance from the fairgrounds if that's... More

I would start by saying Jesse at the desk was great. Our check in was efficient and she was quick to respond (and help) with our needs. Yes, there is a sportsbar next door. Granted, we were there at spring break time, but the partying in the parking lot of both Red Roof AND the Wings place made me feel... More
