Perfect short stay to visit Tampa and surrounding area
Pros:

Great value for the money. It has everything you need for a short stay. Breakfast was ok. Fitness center was ok. Didn’t use the pool but looked ok. Room was spacious enough for 3 people, and perfectly equipped. Laundry was easy and efficient. Staff was friendly and helpful. Don’t expect anything to be the best ever, but it’s just perfect for the price. Id come back.

Wonderful Surprise
Pros:

Hotel South Tampa & Suites was such a beautiful start to our cruise vacation. First, the employees were so kind, professional, and welcoming. That meant a lot! Next, the grounds were maintained well, and the courtyard was peaceful and serene. Then, the room layout and the beds were spacious and comfortable. I enjoyed the coffee, and although we were there a short while, we also used the refrigerator and freezer. This hotel was so comfortable and in such a great location, that we’ve decided to return to Tampa in the future to stay longer to enjoy the accommodations and city. Thanks Hotel South Tampa & Suites for giving us a reason to return!

Cons:

Bathrooms were smaller, but not a game changer.
