Cons:

The tub was slightly slippery. We slipped a little, luckily we didn't hurt ourselves. It needs grips or a mat. I requested a mat, that they could not provide. The mattress in the pull out couch3, needs a new mattress. Not comfortable.

Not what we were expecting from a Hilton property.
Pros:

Lobby is very nice. Misleading when you get into the room. Very dated. Barely any lighting in the bathroom. Was not impressed knowing this is a Hilton property. We got the King room with parlor. Would not recommend. Couch was stained and musky smell in room. Waste of an anniversary trip. Also our room was right at the elevators. Checking in was fast plenty of help. Checking out was slow. Only 1 person on the desk.

Location at the bayfront was perfect. Added costs like $45 per night for parking annoying
Pros:

Breakfast was good but priced higher than necessary.

Cons:

Cold showers every morning during our stay. Definitely not an expectation of a Hilton.

Don’t stay here
Pros:

I stayed the night of May 31st.
Upon entering the room, the TV didn’t work.
They sent maintenance in to fix it and never was able to get it to work.
I got ready and went to my concert, when I got back I showered and the water would not drain in the tub.
When I went to get in bed there was something that looked like blood along the left side of the sheets, I also found a washcloth with the same blood looking substance on it.
I reported all of this and was basically just told to “have a good day” by the man that checked me in.

The icing on the cake is that I was charged a security deposit, the man who checked me in assured me it would be back in my account within 7-10 business days. I called over 1 month later and was told they don’t owe me anything.
If I paid a deposit and got NOTHING back, how would they not owe me the price of the deposit back?

Use the public parking garage at Pinellas Trail and 1st St S
Pros:

The cleaning staff respected the Do Not Disturb sign and stayed out. The pillows and bed were very soft and comfortable. There is a back gate with key access that leads to Publix, which is an amazing advantage.

Cons:

We were automatically charged an extra $500 for valet which we did not use (we only used valet for a couple of hours on the first day, and switched to using the public garage near by after that - SouthCore public parking garage at Pinellas Trail and 1st St S). Valet is $45 per day, public garage is $16 per day. I called the front desk to fix the extra charge, and the agent tried to pass the buck, saying that it's a 3rd party booking and that booking.com can take care of that. After some pressure, he agreed that he is the only one who can fix the problem, and he easily refunded the extra $500 that were charged by mistake.

Dirty and old
Pros:

Cons: The room stunk—it was extremely musty. The bathroom was not cleaned and there was mold. Carpets stained. Gym had one disgusting yoga mat. TV was broken. Lamp had broken switch. Pros: The shower was hot with good water pressure and the bed was comfy. Location is good. But the smell overrode all—I would not choose this hotel.

Staff needs to be trained up
Pros:

Just the location

Cons:

The fact that you have no parking and have to spend 45 dollars a night. You can park on the street but that can be blocks away

Pros:

La ubicación del hotel y lo céntrico

Cons:

Que para el precio que se paga por lo menos no deberían de cobrar las botellas de agua pura y dar algún tipo de insumos como cepillo, para de dientes y bolsa para el cabello
