Categories

Cleanliness
5.6
Several guests reported poor cleanliness: mold in the bathtub, dust on the AC, toothpaste left in the sink, lingering smells (smoke/Lysol/cologne) and rooms not being cleaned daily; cleanliness is a clear weak point.
Service
9.2
Staff repeatedly described as very friendly and welcoming (multiple callouts, including specific praise for 'Candace'); front desk staff were helpful in some stays despite isolated management/reservation failures.
Location
9.4
Multiple mentions of a very good, quiet location close to the amphitheatre and convenient parking; location consistently praised across reviews.
Room Quality
7.2
Rooms noted as spacious and comfortable by several guests but also reported issues (stuffy rooms, AC/filter problems, weak shower head, TV limited channels, leaking toilet, hole in wall) indicating mixed room quality and maintenance needs.
Amenities
8.3
Breakfast and basic amenities are generally available and appreciated (good breakfast selection, pantry), but amenities suffer from maintenance/operational issues (elevators with bad smell, limited TV channels, AC problems).
Value for Money
7.8
Guests described the price as fair overall, but value was affected for some by room/maintenance issues and a notable reservation/compensation failure; generally acceptable but not outstanding.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast repeatedly described positively (bacon, yogurt/fresh fruit, oatmeal, drink selection); food offering seen as a strength.
Overall Experience

Overall stays skew positive due to friendly staff, good breakfast and location, and comfortable rooms for many guests, though a subset experienced significant cleanliness/maintenance problems and a serious reservation mishap.

Nice place but needs better cleaning staff.
Pros:

Breakfast was good. I liked the bacon, the yogurt/fresh fruit, oatmeal and the drinks selection. The staff was doing a good job. They were nice.

Cons:

Room was very stuffy. Started getting a runny nose and sore throat. They were nice and checked the ac filter for me but said it wasn’t the problem could be allergies. I think it was the ac or the room was not clean. One of the pillows sides smelled like a man’s cologne. It was turned down facing the bedsheets. This is the second stay I had there. The first stay the entire room smelled like it had been cleaned by Lysol.

Great option in the area to go to a concert nearby
Pros:

The location was very good for us because we went to a concert at MIDFLORIDA Credit Union Amphitheatre at the FL State Fairgrounds. The surrounding area is very quiet. We enjoyed the spacious, clean and very comfortable bedroom for 1 night. The breakfast was ok with typical american food.

Cons:

I didn't dislike anything at this stay. It was all good. The staff was very nice, the parking lot is open and big enough... It was everything good for just 1 night.

Felt dirty staying here, needs a major upgrade.
Pros:

Staff was very nice.

Cons:

Needs to be upgraded. Our bathtub had mold along the walls, shower head barely worked, someone else’s toothpaste cap left in the sink drain, AC had dust all over it, toilet was leaking, hole in the wall. It did not feel clean at all.

Very disappointed that i didn’t get what i paid for
Pros:

We have always enjoyed the state bridge suites, would like the kitchen set up, the breakfast was good. We enjoyed it. The facilities were great.

Cons:

We booked the king size suite the hotel confirmed that, we brought our confirmation that we have booked over five months prior to our stay, they did not have a king size suite, with no explanation and no help I slept on the couch for 11 at nights. The desk clerk said obviously someone made a mistake here and changed your reservation our friends who wanted to stay there for 10 days changed their minds concerned and concerned they might not get what they book. I’ve always enjoyed staying, but the Staybridge suites USA and Canada very disappointed they gave no explanation why they changed the reservation and no competition I would’ve given them an excellent rating. Being 70 i wasn’t comfortable every night and they advertise they care about our comfort. The desk clerk gave me 15.00 to spend at the pantry. She saw my confirmed king booking. Booking.com could not get the hotel to consider any compensation. That’s poor management.

Overall, the money that we spend was fair. The staff could be more friendly.
Pros:

It needs more cleaning for carpets in the room and halway.

Cons:

The elevators were not acceptable with a bad smell every time, defeatistly needs some kind of ventilation system or air conditioning.

Nice professional staff,clean room.
Pros:

The breakfast was very good with plenty of options. Room was very clean and comfy. Staff super friendly.

Cons:

Water stains on ceiling. Kids eating and drinking in pool. Pool deck not clean. Pool had lots of sand at the bottom so I didn't want to get in feeling it hadn't been clean. Hot tub dirty.
