6/10 Good

Staff was friendly and helpful. Hotel is in the middle of a much-needed renovation. I had an updated room. Some finishing touches were still in progress but the room was clean.

The room was dirty and so was the bathroom. The ceiling was in horrible condition and so was the bathtub (it had brown rust stains). They’re doing remodeling but it looks so bad still. The staff was nice and friendly

8/10 Very good

Staff very nice. Condition of hotel is completely in need of maintenance and renovation. No working WiFi except in lobby. In current times that is an amenity that should be a non-issue for guest stay. Standard requirement. Shame on Hotel owner not to do upgrades to the property

Under Renovation

ongoing renovations throughout so construction related mess dominated the hallways etc
Robert, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was spacious and clean. Bath left something to be desired. Mostly clean. Convenient to many restaurants.
Linda, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The hallways and rooms had run down and dirty rugs. The room smelled like mold. The maids cleaned all the sheets, towels and surfaces well. The hotel is just not maintained and really smelled bad within the hallways and rooms because of mold I believe. The staff were pleasant and efficient. The breakfast was not just a continental breakfast but a full breakfast were there was a wide variety of food from waffles you could make, hard boiled eggs, cereal, bagels, fruit, muffins etc. and it was well stocked. It was the best part of the entire stay. I would not stay at this hotel again. The price was way to high and the smell of mold and extremely dirty rugs everywhere was unpleasant.
Mark, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff at the front desk were very helpful and nice. I appreciate the excellent customer service.

Cheap and cheerful

The hotel is cheap and cheerful. The bed was comfy and clean. The room was ok. Struggled to get hot water for a shower. Only option for coffee in the room. It is only a two star. You get what you pay for. The inclusive breakfast was ok. Quality of the food average.
Kathryn, 1-night trip

Gave me the ick

First of all, the staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel was extremely dirty (carpets), and needed updating. We were afraid to go barefoot in the hotel room. It smelled musty and moldy and the carpet felt damp. The bed was clean and comfortable though. We felt somewhat unsafe due to activity outside and some of the guests in the building.
Stephanie, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The interior needs to be updated

The moment we walked in, it felt like a senior assisted living facility. The hallway was dim and carried a strong scent of cleaning detergent. The room itself was old but fairly spacious. The bathroom had no fan and no locks on the door. I had read the reviews before booking, so my expectations were low—because of that, I wasn’t disappointed with the stay. The location is very good; close to USF and restaurants.

The online pictures look good, when you enter the hotel the carpet is nasty and probably more than 20years old. room smells musty , bath tub was nasty and had a white mat with brown spots. Terrible and NASTY me and my wife regretted staying at this hotel wish i had stayed somewhere else. Please dont make the same mistake i did.
