Had to find a hotel for conference - this was fine. Close to good food and scenic options
Pros:

Room was fine. Location on riverwalk and close to downtown was convenient and pleasant

Cons:

Was a little surprised to find several floors were actually external dorms for University of Tampa.

Great stay except the room and restaurant! Not much left.
Pros:

The front desk staff was great. The hotel was in a great location. The bed was comfortable.

Cons:

I do not understand how a hotel with a restaurant could be so bad. The AC raddled and had a loud noise. The shower was horrible. Both shower heads went in different directions and if you had the temp any higher than just turning it on, skulled you. The shower also had mold. All leaked.
The restaurant. Well, I never got in there because no one came by to seat me. I asked a man who was seated how long he had been waiting. He said, very long. Almost every table had dirty plates on it from the last people there. No hostess. No busboy, nothing. I left and went somewhere else. How can anyone run a hotel with a restaurant and not maintain it?

Great location, great restaurant, and the staff was exceptional!
Pros:

Perfect location, fantastic restaurant, and the most sincere, caring staff I’ve met. Julian, Michelle, and Jeanne went above and beyond to help us accommodate our 90-year-old parents — making sure they were comfortable, checking in often, and handling every little detail with such kindness. They truly made our stay stress-free and memorable. We’ll be back!

Good location, but dirty room that severely needed upgrading
Pros:

I chose this property because it was next to the Straz where my granddaughter had a dance recital.

Cons:

The floors and surfaces in the room were dirty. The blackout curtains were old and outdated; and only went partway across so the room was light all night long. The TV initially didn’t work until the maintenance guy came and tapped it hard with his hand to “fix” it. The TV was old and kind of grainy. A bunch of dead bugs fell out of the bathmat when I opened it. I didn’t feel safe, because the door lock didn’t work properly, and the door was not a tight seal. You could see light all around it from the hallway.
