After reading the awful reviews, I didn't want to stay here, but the friends I was traveling with convinced me to at least try. I was pleasantly surprised. I arrived early and the manager found available rooms so that I could check in. When I requested a change to poolside, they did so graciously. The hotel is a bit old,...

The rooms are old and it smells like cigarette smoke. Even the lobby when you check in smells really bad. Never will stay again.

Everything about this motel was dodgy. The wifi didn't work, the area was crummy, and the customers were anti-social.
They had no security at night and a woman who looked like a hooker knocked on my door at 4am one morning. Pay extra to stay in a nicer place.

This must be the crappiest hotel I have ever stayed at. First off, it's in the bad area of Tampa, but close to my job. There were people peddling for money at the gas station just next door. Stayed here only because it was the cheapest chain hotel I could find. I got my money's worth. The pool was under...

Main issue was the bill, I tried several times to get our bill divided up for business reimbursement so I could have my own receipt. Included multiple calls after the trip, was told that the computer that...

I stayed at this motel after flying across the country and arriving in the late evening with my rental car.
