Room Key & Elevator Problems

Room key did not work after check-in and elevator out of order. Had to return luggage to car in order to walk to and notify front desk. Maintenance required to fix door handle so key would work causing a delay. Upon return to room after dinner, room key did not work again. Had to return to front desk and obtain new room key.

A nice place to stay for cheap.

Older hotel but well kept. Breakfast staff seemed mad they had to work. Lower numbered tv channels didn't work so couldn't watch the game. Soft beds and clean room. Only complaint was the amount of weed that was being smoked. Filled the air anytime you walked outside.

The staff at the front desk and working the breakfast area were tremendous. The room was clean, comfortable, and spacious. We were able to watch the big NFL games for the weekend. The next time we’re in Tampa, we know where to stay.
