Night crew were very professional and polite. The British lady at the front counter even found me a good discount to use for my one day stay. Room was clean and very presentable. Carpet were ok and didn't stink like in other inns I had stayed. TV was out of style, old and bulky. TV service/channels were limited and not good at all. Location of the hotel is excellent, there are plenty of restaurant, fast food, and shopping plazas nearby. The city of Tampa is a easy access from hotel. Macdill AFB is nearby too. Overall: great place to stay.

We reserved a king room and when we checked in were given a room with two double beds. We were told that there were no king rooms for the duration of our stay. The room was not very clean. For instance, there was hair in the drain of the tub when we checked in. We were told that there were no other available rooms. The beds were extremely uncomfortable - it felt like I was sleeping on a cracker.
We were in the room closest to the check-in desk and the room was extremely loud. We could hear every ding of the elevator, every person checking in, and every person getting ice. In addition, we could here the phone conversations in the room next door (and I am sure they loved hearing my toddler request crayons in the middle of the night. Sorry about that).
We checked out after two nights and moved to a different hotel.

I traveled to Tampa on family emergency so did not have time to spend looking for hotels, but this was a very pleasant surprise. Once in my room, it was completely quiet!!! I did not hear any noise from other guests within the hotel or even from the street (and it was on a fairly busy street). The room was spacious and clean, and the staff was polite and very helpful.

I would recommend to anyone traveling to South Tampa and plan on staying there again.

I stayed here for 2 nights when Tampa was very busy. The hotsl was sold out so I was glad I had reservations. The room had 2 big beds, a small frig, microwave, a jack for your laptop, & a "kitchen" sink. The bathroom was a nice size, with a bathtub. Continental Breakfast included with hard boiled eggs, make-your-own waffles, juice, yogurt, fruit, bagels, English muffins, etc.
There was one free computer with printer in the lobby.
One reviewer mentioned a musty smell in the corridor. I did notice this, but probably because I was looking for it. None of my fellow travellers mentioned it. Pets are allowed & there were 2 dogs there when I stayed. There are fewer parking spots than rooms so parking was tight when we came home after 10 pm.
The staff was very friendly & helpful. One man came out to show me where the English muffins were after he heard me ask my friends about them.. The night manager loaded computer print paper for me & showed me how to print. Another man spent time re-doing my reservation so I could get my La Quinta rewards points.
