This hotel should be considered a two star, or lower. The hotel is located at the end of a runway, and has numerous problems with secure access. We arrived at midnight and were able to walk right in the back doors without a key, additionally the hot tub had caution tape around it, and the pool seemed to have a couple of problems as well. It is also located in close proximity to topless bars, and seemed to be in a bad area of town. We did not know all of this when booking, or we wouldn't have stayed there.

Positives: The room was okay.

Negatives: Security, location, broken public access areas, and hot tubs.

Star value is overrated, should be same level as Comfort Inn, etc. Otherwise, staff friendly, buffet breakfast was good and kids under 12 eat free, room was nice, nice bar with multiple big screens and good hamburger & French fries.

Positives: The bed & pillows were comfortable. Kids under 12 ate free (breakfast) with paying adult.

Negatives: No hair dryer in room.

The check in process was smooth and professional. The clerk asked us if we had any special requests and immediately offered to setup a wake up call for our early morning flight. The room was dark with black out curtains and very quiet and clean. It was obviously remodeled recently. We had a great stay and will certainly book this hotel again if we find ourselves in the area again.

Positives: Great contemporary design and room appointment.

Negatives: Nothing, I liked everything.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 21 Mar 2010 rated 7 out of 10.

We have stayed in this hotel three times in the past six months. It has recently undergone a fairly extensive renovation. The rooms are fresh and clean with large flat-screen HD TVs. Convenient location for getting anywhere in Pinellas County, or Tampa. Each time I've stayed at this hotel, in rooms with two double beds which should accommodate four people, there were only two bath towels.

Positives: Good location,

Negatives: Not enough towels provided.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 21 Feb 2010 rated 8 out of 10.

Great location if flying out of PIE airport.

Positives: Location near PIE airport.

Negatives: The hotel shuttle driver had a bad attitude.

The sheets had not been changed from the previous guest. I was unaware of this until the next morning when I went to straighten up the bed. There water in the shower was barely luke warm. At first I thought it was just because it was cold outside and everyone was wanting a hot shower. The next day and night it was the same thing. Cold. Will never stay there again.

<BR/>

Positives: Nothing.

Negatives: The sheets had not been changed from previous guest.

This hotel was very convenient to both Tampa and St. Petersburg. It was updated, clean, the restaurant was reasonably priced and good. The staff was very friendly.

Positives: Clean and upgraded.

Negatives: Noise from the airport next door.
