Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your recent stay. I am incredibly sorry to hear that you requested two queen beds and received a suite with a pull-out couch. It looks like the 3rd party you booked with accidently sent over the room type. This is absolutely unacceptable, and I understand how frustrating and embarrassing this situation must have been for you. We hope you could give us another chance, for your next visit please contact us directly at 813-402-2982 we would be more than happy to book your reservation and give you the correct room type.

The room did not have towels and when I called the front desk she asked me to come down to pick it as she is the ONLY employee in the hotel. When I asked her why she hung up. I called her again and she insisted that I come down if I need a towel. The room is not bad but the bathroom smelled and is very very small. There was a dead roach on the first floor by the check in! Terrible property! People kept slipping menus of nearby restaurants from the door crack! Be ware!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your recent stay. We sincerely apologize that your experience fell short of our expectations in so many ways.We are incredibly sorry to hear about the lack of towels in your room, the unpleasant bathroom odor, and the dead roach you encountered. These issues are completely unacceptable and do not reflect the standards we strive to maintain. We are deeply disappointed by the service you received from the front desk staff, especially considering she was the only employee on duty. It's unprofessional to ask a guest to come down for basic amenities, and her actions do not represent the hospitality we aim to provide.We are taking immediate action to address these concerns. We will be investigating the housekeeping procedures to ensure towels are properly stocked. We will also speak with the front desk staff regarding proper guest service protocol. We are committed to improving our pest control measures and ensuring the cleanliness of all our facilities, including the common areas.The issue with people slipping menus under the door is concerning, and we will investigate further to prevent it from happening again.

Walls were incredibly thin. I could hear conversations at a normal volume from all sides as well as the blinds being opened or closed from next door. Everything appeared clean to the eye, however, the bathroom smelled of feces the entire stay. There were also ants in the room; it wasn’t infested, and they were small sugar ants, but still something worth mentioning. The people working the breakfast counter were amazing, friendly, and kind. I’d return for them alone.

It was ok. Nice and clean. Bed was comfy. The tv kept freezing up so it made it hard to watch a movie. Some of the furniture was broken. The one thing I really disliked was the water in our bathroom smelled like rotten eggs.

The lady who checked me in was so nice. She was trying to multi-task to check me in so that I did not have to wait but was also helping a customer on the phone asking a ton of questions. She made sure I had everything I needed. Also acknowledged me each time I came in and out. Loved the electric blinds in the room. Room set-up was a little strange as you could not open the room door of the bathroom door was open…they hit each other. Also my towel stand in the bathroom had black electric tape on each top leg/section. Seemed strange for a fairly new hotel.

Out dated plus I was over charged almost $100 and told they couldn’t give me a receipt because the machine was down and would email it. Overage was not for the deposit. Charges posted to my account was told it was because Expedia didn’t give me right price (not true). Tried calling, person said hold on he would research, hung up and would not answer phone. Called 3 - 4 additional times a lady answered and said that was the price. Even though the over charge posted on a separate transaction. FURIOUS

Nice property, close to our destination. Apparently, there was something wrong with the front desk computer because check in and check out associates spent an excessive amount of time yelling at it and delaying customers. More front desk staff is needed.

The staff were very friendly. Both checking in and checking-out went smoothly. The room was clean. The only critique I could give is that the room was booked for four people, but there were only three towels and two wash clothes. Other than that it was great.

The hotel was nice. We arrived about 8:30 at night. The desk clerk was not at the desk and we waited about 10 mins before she came out of a back room. We ask about the “ restaurant “ which was advertised but is really a bar area in the lobby. She said it closed at 9. We took our suitcases to the room and came back about 5 mins later and it was closed. The desk clerk and the waitress at the restaurant the next morning were very friendly and helpful. We ate at the restaurant. The food was ok.
