Staff was really good; but many cosmetic issues, our toilet seat was broken. Very noisy at night. Bathroom was really old, needed a fresh up. Hallway rugs were old, torn and smelled. The outdoor pool could use more lounge chairs - only 2 from the 80’s, and the pool area could use some vegetation!

The hotel was nice. We arrived about 8:30 at night. The desk clerk was not at the desk and we waited about 10 mins before she came out of a back room. We ask about the “ restaurant “ which was advertised but is really a bar area in the lobby. She said it closed at 9. We took our suitcases to the room and came back about 5 mins later and it was closed. The desk clerk and the waitress at the restaurant the next morning were very friendly and helpful. We ate at the restaurant. The food was ok.

The staff was very nice, Gisele in particular. Property was decent and in an OK area. I was shocked that I was charged $10 for parking…seriously just up charge the night stay on the front end, bad look for Holiday Inn. The room was nice but the bathroom was awkward and dirty around the door and switch worn out switch panels. Probably will not be staying at Holiday Inn’s moving forward.

I wish I had better things to say. The location of this hotel is ideal if you need to be close to USF. It has undergone a renovation, but is by no means a new hotel. The doors are not well insulated and you can hear everything. Every person in the hall, every door slam, every cart roll by, at all hours of the day and night. We could hear the people talking and walking in the room above us, and could even hear them rolling up and down their window shades. The bed was comfortable, and the room was well-cleaned, but then we saw a cockroach the morning we checked out. Our TV would turn on randomly all throughout the day and night, which someone clearly knew about as our tv was unplugged upon arrival. Would not stay again.

The lady who checked me in was so nice. She was trying to multi-task to check me in so that I did not have to wait but was also helping a customer on the phone asking a ton of questions. She made sure I had everything I needed. Also acknowledged me each time I came in and out. Loved the electric blinds in the room. Room set-up was a little strange as you could not open the room door of the bathroom door was open…they hit each other. Also my towel stand in the bathroom had black electric tape on each top leg/section. Seemed strange for a fairly new hotel.

We spent 4 days here. The room and bathroom were very nice! Room comes with a microwave which is a major plus. Housekeeping came on time each day. The only problem is that the guy at the front desk gave us the room right next to the elevator, and the elevator was extremely noisy every time the doors opened and closed so this affected us and our sleep.

Let me just say the basics. It was a hotel that provided a room with hot water. None of this outweighs the paper thin walls that allowed you to hear rooms on both sides of you in it's entirety (conversations and bathroom)., The constant noise from the elevator was off the chart. There was actually so much noise I would have slept better in my car. The cleanliness was mediocre to the point that I cleaned the floor with a bath towel due to stickiness. Overall for $292 a night it was terrible. Next time I would stay further away from USF and just drive to my location. Never again.

Upon first entry, it seemed clean. Checked the bed sheets and everything was clean minus a pillow with a few tiny stains. Hardwood floors in the room were a new thing i have never experienced and hope i dont have to again. The people above us were stomping around until midnight. The bathroom was bot in the best condition. There was water damage on the baseboards and bottom of the door. Paint chips around the switch panel and door handles that were just painted over. Rust and holes around the shower/baseboards. Overall a decent place to stay for the price and for one night. Wouldn’t book again probably due to the noise level with the floors not being carpeted.

The staff at check in was helpful and friendly, at check out, they were occupied and distracted so not as friendly. The room was ok, however, the bathroom could have used a better cleaning. The room was located on the 1st floor and the noises in the hallway and from the ac in the room were jarring. Overall, we were there for less than 10 hours so it addressed the need but not a great experience.

We checked in as my husband was having cancer surgery the next day. We got our room number and went upstairs. We entered the room and it hadn’t been cleaned beds weren’t made. A maid was us and told us it wasn’t ready. She made a call and told us to go back downstairs. I asked her if my husband could sit there and wait for me as he was exhausted. She said no and he had to go back downstairs just to be told to go back upstairs to a new room.

Shortly before we checked in I received a call from mgr. I called back he was a bit rude because of a payment misunderstanding which was solved the moment I called them at which time he reprimanded me. Once we arrived everything was fine and the room was perfect. Upon check out a different desk agent gave me someone else’s folio which was a different price than my room so that was another wasted 10 minutes as we all tried to figure out why I was being over charged until my husband realized we were looking at someone else’s Room folio. Oh well, mistakes happen. Thankfully the room was clean, safe and comfortable which is what matters.

I only gave 3 stars because the ppl at the front desk were really nice. I left my room around 9 am and when I got back around 3:30 my room still hadn’t been cleaned. The housekeeper was down the hall on the phone and I literally had to stop her and ask if my room had been serviced I figured maybe she skipped it. She said only towels and trash so I asked her for towels and to empty the trash she had an attitude no one wants to come back after being goin for hours and their room isn’t cleaned because the housekeeper is taking her time because she’s on the phone. If it was only towels and trash why would it take so long?! I left went and got food and she still had just moved down to one room. The hotel is close to Busch gardens and stores like target and Walmart I would only recommend to tell the front desk to service your room at a decent time so you won’t be disappointed

The hotel was great. The rooms were well stocked. The bedding was comfortable. The pillows were great. Everything seem to be newer. However, The food set up was about the only bad thing. The quality was not the best however, the people that worked around the food were all excellent. There are plenty of restaurants around and this hotel is very very close to Busch Gardens and if you have to pay parking at Busch Gardens, I highly recommend that you just take an eight to $10 lift to there and back saves you money and time

We had reservations for a king room. When we arrived we were given two queen beds. They did give us a voucher for breakfast because of the change. They said Expedia overbooked the king rooms. We arrived early, 3:30pm. Thinking HI is who overbooked and they blamed Expedia. Also the restaurant had only one person taking orders, cooking, and cleaning up. Needless to say it was very slow.

For the price and value the hotel was great. Although sometimes hard to find someone at the front desk. When we did, Alex was very helpful. I realize there is a staffing shortage but we were supposed to check in at 3pm and our room was not ready until after 4pm. This would not have been a problem but we were sitting there since Noon. You would think given the fact we were at the hotel, they would have done our rooms first. Alex handled it well even though things were out of his control. The breakfast was GREAT!! And the staff serving breakfast was super nice. Highly recommend for the price.
