Residence Inn Tampa Downtown

Great

Sitting area around the pool was small

The proximity to airport & our convention venue along the River Walk. The very spacious room and abundant breakfast that included lots of variety and most importantly fresh fruit.

That I occasionally heard a dog barking in an adjacent room. The peeling paint on the room door & broken bedside lamp that made the light in the room very harsh was not esthetically appealing. Didn’t appreciate seeing an unexpected misc charge on my bill that I had to call in to remove. There was no explanation for the charge and it was readily removed. Had I not opened my electronic bill right away I suspect the unexpected charge might have gone through.

big studio with balcony very comfy bed, great room layout. good complementary breakfast,

the kitchenware was dirty. room was cold. the climate control couldn’t keep up with the freezing temperatures outside but that kind of weather is rare. single glazing windows couldn’t keep the street noise out.

The breakfast was a typical chain hotel buffet. Not great, but not horrible. The room was spacious but very worn and only moderately clean. The outdoor space pictured in the photos was almost unrecognizable due to it being so worn down but it did have plenty of seating outside. There was a basketball court which is nice for kids but also noisy.

Very worn down and appeared only somewhat clean. My room reeked of men’s cologne when I arrived and the smell stayed even through the 4 day I was there. The bed was lumpy and the shower/bath area needed maintenances. Shower walls were cracked and the faucet was loose. The price per night was outrageous compared to the condition of the property. The staff was friendly but not at all knowledgeable - I asked where a guest might park (other than the hotels $25 per day overnight service) and she had “no idea”. The location is good but also a bit dangerous - I witnessed a fight a block away from the hotel the first afternoon I was there that resulted in a man being body slammed to the ground bleeding from the head. I had to call an ambulance. I would opt to stay there again.
