I would totally recommend for affordability, room comfort, staff and location.
Pros:

All staff were lovely and helpful, and the room was clean and for the most part comfortable. The history and location were also pluses.

Cons:

The overwhelming scent of air freshener detracted from my experience. Additionally, I had to empty the humidifier in my room twice.

Pros:

Very clean, fluffy towels, comfortable beds, great complimentary breakfast, friendly staff and easy check in! We came in late and check in was so easy. Would stay again

Excellent. That’s all I can say. 100% reccomanded.
Pros:

The staff was extremely friendly. They always had a smile on their face and revealed themselves to be very helpful.
The hotel itself looks very nice, retro style but gorgeous.
Breakfast was also very generous and super tasty.

Cons:

The only point I would improve a tiny bit are bathrooms. Showers and sinks are a bit old and you can tell that.
That’s all.

Charming Crystal Bay Hotel
Pros:

Management has kept this historic hotel well maintained. The hotel is very clean and quiet. Parking across the street is convenient. It's also minutes from Tropicana Field and Babe Ruth's Mansion and St Pete Beach. The hotel also provides a complimentary buffet style breakfast. All at a reasonable rate. Definitely recommend!

Cons:

Pros:

Das Hotel ist sehr schön, obwohl das Haus schon über 100 Jahre alt ist, wie es heisst. Das Frühstück war sehr gut, es gab jeden Tag frische Früchte. Das Personal ist sehr nett. Das Zimmer war sehr gross. Wir haben auch Zusatzhandtücher erhalten. Parkieren kann man kostenlos vor dem Hotel.

Cons:

Alles war gut. Lediglich fiel die Spülung des WCs aus in der 2. Nacht, wonach wir bis am Morgen keine funktionierende Toiletten Spühlung hatten.
