Yes, it was moldy, we stayed there for 3 nights for a convention! I came home sick and sniffly, so much dust and mold. The pool and kids water park were wonderful, but is it really worth it to make your family sick? The toilet kept on backing up, nasty! Everyone else at the convention had the same opinion too!...

We were in Tampa with friends on a budget. Reading some of the reviews here, we took the time to check the rooms before committing. We stayed and were not sorry. You get a lot for your buck here. This hotel obviously needs some updates; the furniture is old and stained, as are the rugs and some of the furnishings.... More

We stayed here one night with a school group. The hotel is actually a motel, with doors that open to the outside. The rooms are your basic "Motel 6" layout, and quality. First, the good: Breakfast was excellent, with enough room for a major group (which we had), and the food was on time, hot, and tasty. I give them... More

Had a room for Saturday reserved. Arrived early to check-in, only to find the Front Desk Agent being rude on the telephone with a guest. After waiting several hours to check-in, to Room 2100, I should've walked out, but was tired from being on a cruise. The room was an absolute mess, outdated amenities, the bed was so uncomfortable, and... More

This is a little older hotel that has been refurbished and is in overall nice condition. The courtyard and pool area are beautiful. The rooms are fairly average, but clean and comfortable. The hotel staff, while very busy the night we stayed, were very friendly. Our only issue was the wireless internet was down all night. Breakfast was eggs, sausage,... More
